Maintenance that smells trouble before it leaves you stranded, all in one subscription. You just ride: the network's workshops handle the rest (with a little help from AI).
You step in after a week of creaking. And the bike always quits on the one weekend that matters.
Prices, quality and turnaround change with every shutter. And you just cross your fingers.
Nobody remembers your bike. Or you, let's be honest.
Estimates wear from your mileage, weather and manufacturer intervals — getting sharper as your bike's history grows.
Scheduled maintenance in a single monthly fee.
Physical service with CrankPal quality standards, in a network growing city by city.
CrankPal algorithms combine multiple data sources to predict wear before it becomes a breakdown.
Wear prediction models trained on real usage and maintenance data.
Five lamps like a car's dashboard: drivetrain, brakes, wheels, steering and contact points. Green when all is well, amber when it's time to plan a check-up, red when the bike should be checked before you ride again. Below, the total odometer and the one since the last service. Without opening the app.
Your phone already knows when you are on a bike: it keeps seven days of motion history, and CrankPal reads it back when you open the app. Rides recognised with confidence go in on their own, the others are proposed to you. No battery, no location permission, no account to connect. If you want the route on the map as well, turn on automatic GPS: it starts when you set off and stops when you stop. And Strava or Garmin, if you have them, carry on as before: the sources live side by side, and if the same ride arrives from two of them the kilometres count once.
If there is already a Bluetooth speed sensor on your wheel, CrankPal uses it: Garmin, Wahoo, Magene, XOSS, CooSpo, iGPSPORT, Bryton, Polar, SIGMA, CatEye, Bontrager, Giant. All it takes is the standard CSC profile, the one fitted to just about every speed sensor on sale, and fifteen euros will do. It counts wheel revolutions, so it measures your kilometres instead of estimating them: no GPS, even with the app closed and the phone in your pocket. You pair it with a bike once, and from then on every ride lands on the right bike without you choosing anything.
