DelayMikolo
Mikolo’s Falcon 2.0 slips to late October and drops its $500 discount — the price a buyer pays is now $2,499.99
On Sept 10 the Falcon 2.0 took preorders through a single variant named "FALCON™-2.0 (Ships in Late Sept.)", beside a banner promising "$500 OFF - From $1,999" auto-applied at checkout. Read on Mikolo’s own product page on Oct 1 in a rendered browser, that variant now reads "FALCON™-2.0 (Ships in Late Oct.)" and the discount surface is gone entirely: no "$500 OFF" figure and no "auto-applied" text appears anywhere on the page. The machine is still orderable at $2,499.99 with a visible enabled Add to Cart and schema.org/InStock, so the late-September window did not hold and the effective cost to a buyer has risen by $500 rather than fallen. Two reading traps worth recording: the page’s compare_at_price is 249999 against a price of 249999 — equal to itself, so the "Sale price" label is not a discount — and a $1,999.99 string that surfaces on some loads belongs to a rotating recommendations carousel, not to this machine. The only live promotion is a sitewide bar reading "FALL SALE: Save Up To $600 | Oct. 1-15", which is not specific to the Falcon.
DropChisel Fit
Chisel Fit’s Twin Pen-Dulum Squat has a product page at last — $3,995.00 preorder, fulfillment from December 2026
This machine has sat in the index as a patent-pending show sighting with no live source: a rendered read on Sept 10 found zero occurrences of its name on HomeGymCon’s release page, its only stored source, and the brand’s own site carried nothing. As of Oct 1 chiselfit.com publishes a full product page for it, and the brand’s own catalog data lists it as one of only three products Chisel Fit sells. It is orderable at $3,995.00 against a $5,995.00 regular price — a genuine list-versus-sale pair rather than a compare-at equal to itself — with the page stating "Pre-Order Today and Get $2,000 Off + Free Shipping. Order fulfillment begins December, 2026", a visible enabled Add to Cart and schema.org/InStock. Two things to get right: the brand spells it "Twin Pen-Dulum Squat" (and "TWIN-PEN" in its own copy), and the $500 deposit structure that also renders on this page belongs to Chisel Fit’s rower banner, not to this machine, which is a straight add-to-cart with no deposit mechanism published. It remains absent from HomeGymCon, so the brand page is now the only source — a considerably better one than the show listing it replaces.
DelayGet RXd
Get RXd moved the Tornado X kit’s availability date to 11/27 but left 11/06 in the preorder notice
When this index recorded the Tornado X retrofit kit as openly orderable on Sept 17, both the product title and the preorder notice said 11/06. As of Oct 1 the title and breadcrumb read "TORNADO X RETROFIT KIT [AVAILABLE 11/27]" while the preorder notice beneath it still reads "This item is on preorder. If added to your order, your entire order (including in-stock items) will ship on 11/06." Those are three weeks apart on the same page, and a buyer adding in-stock items to the same order is being told two different things about when the whole order ships. Price, controls and availability are unchanged — $90.00 per arm with a minimum quantity of 2 for $180.00 per pair, enabled Add to Cart, schema.org/InStock — and neither date carries a year anywhere on the page, so do not read either as 2026. Ask Get RXd which date governs before ordering the kit alongside anything you need sooner.
Price changeRitFit
RitFit cut the P9’s price to $1,799.99 and dropped its compare-at — and renamed the machine at retail
The P9 has moved twice in this index already: $2,099.99 on Aug 24, then $1,999.99 against a $2,399.99 regular price. Read on RitFit’s own product page on Oct 1, the block now renders "Sale price $1,799.99" with no regular or compare-at line at all, and the variant price in the page’s own analytics data is 179999 — so the price itself moved rather than a discount being applied at the cart. The storefront session was native USD, so this is not a currency-conversion artifact. The machine is also renamed at retail: the heading now reads "RitFit P9 3D Smith Machine and a Functional Trainer With Adjustable Dual Cable System", where this index has tracked it as the "P9 Multi-Functional Modular Power Cage". Note the page title still says $1,999.99 — a stale SEO title, the same artifact that makes the M3 Pro’s title read $2,999.99, and neither is the rendered price. A separate "$100 OFF auto-applied at checkout" banner is a coupon that sits on top of the $1,799.99.
AnnouncementForce USA
Force USA switched off the C20’s sold-out preorder notice — and the ship-date field it fed was empty the whole time
On Sept 27 this index recorded that Force USA had blanked the C20’s expected ship date while keeping the $6,499 preorder open, with the sold-out blurb still running. As of Oct 1, confirmed on two independent rendered loads, that blurb no longer displays at all: its container carries display:none, and "pre-order" returns zero occurrences in rendered text against 62 in raw HTML. The page now presents as an ordinary in-stock listing — $6,499, schema.org/InStock on SKU F-C20, visible BUY button enabled — with no preorder framing and no ship date. The detail that matters sits inside the hidden text: the "Expected Shipping Date:" label is still followed by nothing, so no date was published on this run either, and Force USA has simply stopped describing the C20 as sold out rather than resolving the wait. That is the fourth state this page has held in eighteen days, and it remains a reason to get a ship date in writing before paying. As always on this page, every visible SOLD OUT button belongs to an accessory tile, never to the rack.
Price changePorter Physed Fitness
Porter Physed’s V-Wing has a price — $300.00 — and both colourways are sold out
The V-Wing has sat in this index as an announced show release with price recorded as an open question. Porter Physed Fitness publishes it at $300.00 USD on its own store, with compare_at null, so that is a clean list price with no sale involved. Both colourways, Black and Silver, read available:false in the brand’s product data, the visible cart control is disabled and labelled "Sold Out", and the schema availability is OutOfStock on both offers — control and structured data agree, so there is no ambiguity to resolve here. Read it in context rather than as a warning: most of the hard goods in Porter’s twenty-product catalog are sold out, which reads as a small-batch maker’s normal cadence rather than a discontinuation. The brand describes it as handcrafted with four polished stainless steel holes for rotation, hand-ground edges and a stonewashed finish, and offers a leather colour upgrade arranged by email after ordering.
AnnouncementMythic Equipment
Mythic Equipment will build for 1" racks only, and its first run of J-cups and spotter arms will not be a pre-order
Mythic showed height-adjusting J-cups and spotter arms at HomeGymCon and has been tracked here as a prototype with every buying question open. Its storefront is password-locked and not selling — the brand states plainly "Because the products are not for sale yet." — but the FAQ answers two of those questions directly. First, compatibility is narrower than the show suggested: Mythic says it "will be focusing exclusively on 1" racks and attachments", so no 5/8" hardware is planned at all, which rules the line out for a large share of home racks. Second, there will be no pre-order for the first run — "Our initial round of products (Spotter Arms, J-Cups, Roller J-Cups) will not be launching on pre-order" — with an email list getting first access to launch units instead, so availability will be a queue rather than a reservation. The launch lineup is now four named SKUs, and the spotter arms come in two lengths, Standard and Shorty, which answers the length question this index had open. First-round shipping is to the contiguous United States only with no local pick-up, and manufacturing has moved from Mexico to China. No prices are published anywhere yet.
DropGMWD
GMWD launched a dearer second line called Ascent — six machines, all pre-order, all shipping January 2027
GMWD has added a line under its own new "Ascent Series" nav item and collection page, with all six machines published on 2026-09-28 by the brand's own product data. Read direct from each machine's own product page: Ascent SR9 Dual-Sided Linear Row $1,199.99 against $1,499.99, Ascent SR10 Chest-Supported T-Bar Row $1,199.99 against $1,659.99, Ascent FR2 Selectorized Pec Fly and Rear Delt $1,399.99 against $1,799.99, Ascent HA3 Selectorized Hip Abductor and Adductor $1,599.99 against $2,099.99, Ascent HB2 Selectorized Hip Thrust $1,699.99 against $2,199.99, and Ascent DD12 Leg Press and Hack Squat $1,999.99 against $2,499.99. Each is sold in White and Black, all twelve variants are orderable rather than sold out, and every variant is named "(Pre-Order | Ships in January 2027)" — so this is a deposit-free pre-order roughly four months out, not stock on a shelf. The one caution that costs money: on the SR9 and the FR2 the regular price differs by colourway, both showing $2,499.99 on Black against $1,499.99 and $1,799.99 on White at the same sale price either way, so Black advertises a 52% and 44% saving for an identical machine at an identical cost. Verified at each variant's own URL with the selected colourway asserted in the same read as the price, in a native-USD session, so it is neither a failed variant click nor a currency artifact. Two more limits worth knowing: the collection page actually lists eight products, the other two being LE11 and LE08 2.0 leg machines on different timelines, and the "Frame lifetime, parts 6 months warranty" and "48 hours dispatch, 3-7 days deliver to door" lines are store-wide trust badges that also appear on unrelated GMWD products — not Ascent specifications. The SR9 is the one machine whose own spec table we read: 3" x 3", 12-gauge steel, 64.96" L x 65.94" W x 42.52" H, 319.7 lb assembled, 660 lb max sled load, 280 lb plate storage, 250 lb max user weight. For scale, the only GMWD products this index tracks are the LE10/LE11/LE12 leg stations; Ascent starts well above them.
