Align Pilates C8 Pro Cadillac Reformer Combo
The C8-Pro is the ultimate C-Series Reformer, featuring an oversize aluminium profile and foot bar and an 8 PU wheel carriage system for the quietest and lowest maintenance ride available.
Like all Align-Pilates commercial Reformers, the C8-Pro features our patent pending Rapid Change (RC) spring bar for the easiest and quickest adjustment on the market.
Many Pilates professionals choose their Reformer based on the ride characteristics and the biggest determinant of that is the number and type of wheels. The number and 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. The C8-Pro uses 8 ‘roller blade style’ wheels which are designed to give a quieter and softer ride with slightly greater rolling resistance when compared to the more ice glide ride offered by the harder nylon wheels used in a 4 wheel system like on the C2-Pro RC, where the wheels run in a matched aluminium profile. Which is better is a matter of preference for the user/s, though for many this will be a key determinant of which machine they buy and chances are; many will prefer the ride style they are more familiar with or trained on!
The C8-Pro’s Rapid Change spring bar radically alters the ease and speed of adjusting your Reformer, which is particularly beneficial for those running group classes (where the C8-Pro really excels). The spring bar can simply be adjusted with the springs attached, with one hand, and in a single action, which saves up to 12 additional actions when compared with most standard spring bars!
This version of the C8-Pro reformer comes with a Full Cadillac Frame which includes the C8-Pro Pilates Reformer, Full Cadillac Frame & Brackets, Leg Extensions, Mattress Converter, and Platform Extender – all you need for a complete Pilates Reformer & Cadillac combo. The full stainless steel upper frame is superior to standard chromed steel frames, ensuring a long and corrosion free life. The C8-Pro is suitable for users 145cm – 193cm (4’10” – 6’4″), max. user weight: 150kg.
