Set Up a Bike in One Go
Adding components used to mean tapping in chain, cassette, tires, and brake pads one at a time, every field, every bike. We've turned that into a single guided flow.
When you create a new bike, you now pick a brake type (disc or rim) and a setup template — Basic, Complete, or Detailed. As soon as the bike is created, you land in a wizard with the matching components already pre-filled and ready to confirm.
Three Templates to Pick From
- Basic — chain, cassette, front and rear tires, front and rear brake pads. The five things that wear fastest.
- Complete — adds front and rear derailleurs, chainrings, front and rear wheels, plus brake rotors on disc setups and bar tape on road and gravel.
- Detailed — adds the frame, bar/stem/seatpost, saddle, crank, and pedals. Suspension too if you're on a mountain bike.
Pick whichever fits how closely you want to track wear. You can always add more later.
Faster to Fill Out
Each row only asks for what's actually different per component: a name, a manufacturer, and an installed date. Wear limits, service reminders, and component-type metadata all come from sensible defaults you can refine later.
Two helpers at the top of the wizard cut the typing further:
- Set manufacturer for empty rows — pick once, fill every blank row in a tap. Rows you've already filled stay as-is.
- Set installed date for all rows — for the case where you bought the bike with everything already on it.
Toggle off Auto-create reminders if you'd rather skip them — on by default, since most riders want the chain-stretch and tire-check reminders set up.
Tracking Front and Rear Separately
Wheels, tires, brake pads, and disc rotors now create as front and rear rather than as a single combined component. That means when a front tire wears out, you can retire just that one without affecting the rear's history. Same for pads, rotors, and wheels.
We've also tidied the labels: everywhere you used to see "Tyre," it now says "Tire."
For Bikes You Already Have
Got a bike that was imported from Strava, or one you skipped the template on? Open the bike, and instead of an empty wear card you'll see a Set up with a template button. It walks you through the same brake-type and template picker before dropping you into the wizard.
Tell Us When a Manufacturer Is Missing
Anywhere you pick a manufacturer — adding a bike, adding a component, or filling rows in the setup wizard — there's now a small Missing one? Let us know link in the corner. One tap drops a pre-addressed email so we can add the brand and you can move on.
Heads Up
This release is web-only for now. If you've got a stack of new bikes to set up, the web app is the fastest place to do it. The mobile counterpart is on the way.
