This C8-Pro offers the quietest and lowest maintenance ride possible with its aluminium profile and footbar. Our Rapid Change (RC) spring bar makes it easy and quick to adjust the C8-Pro like all Align-Pilates commercial reformers. Rapid Change (RC) spring bar allows you to adjust your reformer in a matter of seconds, which is particularly useful in the group class environment, where the C8-Pro excels. With springs attached, the spring bar can be adjusted with one hand in a single action, saving you up to 12 additional steps.

Pilates professionals choose their reformers based on their ride characteristics, which are largely determined by the type and number of wheels. The number & material of the wheels determine the resistance of the carriage, the sound the machine makes, the handling of cross loading, and the amount of maintenance required for optimal performance. When compared to the harder nylon wheels found on a 4-wheel system where the wheels run in matched aluminium profiles, the C8 uses eight wheels to provide a quieter and softer ride with greater rolling resistance. For many, this will determine which machine they buy, and chances are they'll prefer the ride style they are familiar with or have trained on.

Stackable and freestanding, the C8-Pro can be free-standing with optional freestanding feet or leg extensions, which raise the bed height to 44cm as opposed to the standard 26cm. This reformer offers unparalleled value for money, as it accepts either a Full or Half Cadillac Frame, making it the most versatile reformer in its class. Additionally, the C8-Pro Reformer shares all its accessories with the C-Series reformers.

The C8-Pro is suitable for users 145cm – 193cm (4'10" – 6'4"), max. user weight: 150kg.
