What is Pedalytics

The facts

What it does

• Garage. All your bikes and their parts, with position (front, rear, left, right), parts fitted, removed or kept as spares, and up to 6 private photos per bike.
• Factory builds. You pick your model and it creates a private copy with its parts, which you can change. Each part starts as new, used or unknown, and the catalogue never rewrites yours.
• Memory per ride. Each ride keeps a snapshot of the setup. If you change the chain on Tuesday, Sunday's ride stays tied to the old one.
• Mechanical load. It turns each ride into equivalent kilometres based on terrain, rain, mud and other conditions. How it is worked out.
• Wear per part. It adds those kilometres to each part and compares them with a reference that cites its source. Where no reliable figure exists, as with a frame, it gives no percentage: that part is checked by its condition.
• Reminders. Clean and lube the chain after rain, mud or salt, a part nearing its reference, or brake fluid and sealant when their time is up.
• Ride analysis. Power, heart rate, cadence, speed and altitude on one trace. Whatever your file lacks is shown as missing.
• Prepare ride. It compares your bikes with a plan (distance, terrain, rain, mud) and gives a short list of what to check before and after.
• Workshop. Cleans, lubes, replacements and inspections, with products and notes, on the timeline of the bike and the part.

What it does not do

• It does not measure wear: it has no sensors on the bike. A chain is measured with a gauge and brake pads by eye or with a caliper, and that is still needed.
• It does not work out your position on the bike or recommend which bike to buy.
• It does not replace a mechanic or confirm that a bike is safe.
• It does not connect today to Garmin, Google Health or Apple Health for rides. They are on the roadmap, with no date. A FIT file from Garmin can be imported.
• There is no version to try on the web. This site explains the product and offers free calculators and guides.
