R8-Pro Pilates Reformer – Align Pilates
The Align-Pilates R8-Pro Reformer combines the classic heritage of Joseph Pilates with modern technology and a compact design. This retro-inspired reformer is designed for those who appreciate the authentic Pilates experience but expect equipment that meets today's demands. With its elegant steel frame in black or white, quiet operation, and professional finish, the R8-Pro is ideal for home studios, boutiques, and light commercial use.
A modern interpretation of the classic Reformer
The name R8 stands for Retro 8-Wheel and refers to the design that remains true to the original classic Reformers. The proportions, height, and geometry closely follow the original concept, while modern innovations provide added ease of use. Think adjustable Rope Risers, Silent Ropes, and the patented Rapid Change Spring Bar system, which allows you to quickly and easily adjust the resistance during your workout.
Quiet, smooth and surprisingly compact
Thanks to eight durable PU wheels, the carriage moves whisper-quietly and requires little maintenance on the stainless steel tracks. With a generous carriage width of 56 cm and a travel length of 97.5 cm, the R8-Pro offers excellent stability and comfort despite its compact size. Integrated transport wheels allow the Reformer to be easily moved or stored upright, perfect for multi-purpose rooms or home use.
Smart design with professional performance
The R8-Pro proves that compact doesn't mean compromise. The five-position footbar, three-position headrest, and height-adjustable Rope Risers (nine positions with leg extensions) provide maximum adjustability. The off-center shoulder pads offer a choice of two widths, making the Reformer suitable for a variety of body types. The R8-Pro comes standard with four nickel-plated springs (light, medium, and strong), with the option to add a fifth spring for additional resistance.
Ideal for light commercial and home studios
As the first Reformer in the light commercial category, the R8-Pro is designed for use up to 20 hours per weekThis makes it perfect for personal trainers, small studios, and serious home exercisers. The sturdy steel frame, high-quality finish, and smooth operation make this Reformer a long-lasting investment with professional performance, without the bulk of a full-fledged commercial unit.
The Align-Pilates R8-Pro Reformer is a stylish, quiet and versatile Pilates Reformer that combines classic precision with modern functionality, ideal for those seeking the best of both worlds.
