Peloton has revolutionized home fitness.

Since launching in 2012, the New York-based high-tech fitness company has gained a cult following of fans who are obsessed with its core product, the indoor cycling bike. It announced Wednesday that it had filed for an IPO without specifying the number or price range of shares it expects to sell.

It was previously reported that an IPO deal could value the company at more than $8 billion. Peloton has grown a fan base in a relatively short period of time and has been referred to as “the Apple of fitness.”

It's a buzz that even the company's CEO, John Foley, says he wasn't expecting.

“I was totally surprised by it,” Foley told Business Insider's Avery Hartmans in an interview at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2018.

“When I started Peloton with my cofounders, I saw clear as day what it was going to look like and how it was going to work — the technology, the hardware, the software, the business model,” he said. “I saw everything except the community. The community has blown me away.”

In February 2018, it unveiled its newest product, a treadmill that costs over $4,000.
