Chain power loss
Your chain's condition quietly costs you watts. Now you can see how many — and how many you'd get straight back with a clean and fresh wax or lube.
- Estimated recoverable watts on every chain — shown on the bike's component list and broken down on the chain's detail view into contamination, lubrication state, and chain stretch.
- Cascaded to your bikes — the estimate rolls up to the bike cards on your gear list and your home screen, so a neglected chain is visible at a glance.
- Wax vs. lubricant aware — a waxed chain stays cleaner for longer, and the estimate reflects the setup you've told us you run.
- Sharper with a lubrication reminder — mark your chain's lube reminder complete and the estimate re-evaluates from a fresh baseline. Chains without one still get an estimate based on typical habits, with a nudge to add a reminder.
- Works for everyone — riders syncing from Strava see the estimate at reduced accuracy; connecting a bike computer sharpens it over time.

- Set chain lubrication reminders as a "lubrication" reminder — so completing them refreshes your power-loss estimate. Chains created from a preset get this automatically.
- Add chain details while creating or editing — set the Waxed switch right on the create and edit forms, not only afterwards.
