The Align Pilates C8-Pro Reformer with Half Cadillac pairs Align's aluminium C-series studio reformer with a stainless steel half cadillac tower, so one footprint covers reformer classes and tower work.
The C8-Pro rolls on 8 PU wheels inside anodised aluminium runners and gives 106.5 cm of carriage travel. Its Rapid Change spring bar moves with the springs still attached, which keeps changeovers quick between clients.
The tower slides into a bracket set that bolts to the reformer legs. It brings a push through bar with safety strap, a roll down bar and eight cadillac springs on sliding holders.

Align Pilates C8-Pro Reformer with 5 springs, silent ropes with double loop handles and a silent foot strap

Features
Tower work on the same machine The half cadillac adds push through, roll down and hanging spring exercises at the head of the reformer, so clients move between repertoires without changing stations.
Rapid Change spring bar Lift the spring bar and set it in a new position with the springs in place. There is no separate carriage stopper to move.
Quiet 8 wheel carriage Eight PU wheels run in anodised aluminium runners for a soft, quiet ride with low upkeep. Travel measures 106.5 cm.
Adjustable push through bar The push through bar height and the four sliding spring holders lock into set holes on the uprights, and a quick release safety strap keeps the bar under control when sprung from below.
Bolt on bracket set The C-series brackets bolt to the reformer legs and runners with the supplied Allen key, then the frame slides in and locks with grub screws.
Oversize lockable foot bar The padded foot bar locks in 4 positions including flat, and off centre shoulder rests give a choice of widths.

Installation
Build the reformer The C8-Pro arrives in 2 boxes and the main box weighs around 40 kg, so two people are needed to unpack it. Align puts reformer assembly at 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Fit the brackets At the rope riser end, bolt the lower bracket feet to the legs with the supplied bolts and washers, then fix the upper brackets to the runners. Hand tighten everything first, then tighten fully with the Allen key.
Insert the frame Level the reformer with all four feet on the floor, loosen the grub screws and have two people slide the frame into the brackets with the knobs facing outward. Measure the ceiling first, as Align notes 2.45 m of clearance is needed to insert the frame on a reformer with 40 cm legs.

Model
This OneAlign Pilates C8-Pro Reformer with Half Cadillac
Does this bundle include the mattress converter and platform extender?
No. It contains the C8-Pro reformer, the Half Cadillac frame and the C-series bracket set. Align recommends adding the mattress converter and platform extender for the full range of half cadillac work.
How much ceiling height do I need?
Assembled, the tower stands 195 cm on a C-series reformer or 208 cm with leg extensions. Align advises measuring beforehand, as sliding the frame in on 40 cm legs needs about 2.45 m of clearance.
Is the C8-Pro suitable for a commercial studio?
Yes. C-series reformers carry Align's commercial warranty, covering use of up to 37.5 hours per week with a 150 kg user limit.
Do the cadillac springs match the reformer springs?
The 47 cm cadillac springs are the same type Align uses on its reformers, so other strengths can be added in that length. The tower also has four 64 cm long springs.
Who does the C8-Pro fit?
Align rates the C8-Pro for users from 145 to 193 cm tall and up to 150 kg.
Can the Half Cadillac be used without the reformer?
Yes, with Align's Half Cadillac Wall Bracket, sold separately, the frame can be mounted against a solid wall.
