Best free cycling app now Strava charges?

As title. Ta.

You've not really given much to go on (should we expect this given the username?!). At this point I would still say 'Strava', (as they have always charged and there has always been a free option, they have just recently moved some things from free to pay)

Depends what you want it for?

Trail forks is good for mountain biking.

Komoot is good for most stuff, but also has a pricing module.

Strava is still by far the best all rounder unless you are only interested in your own rides and nothing else. I'm a subscriber and ironically I don't even use the features that have now been removed for the free tier!

KOMs etc and comparison to others. It was a useful target sometimes. If nothing that's fine, I'm only wondering and was being vague for a reason, maybe you missed it?

Well that's a pretty USP to Strava, so best just suck it up and pay for the premium account if you want all that.

Tbh, it wasn't that you were vague, it was more that you were wrong, as they have always charged.

Now we know it's KOMs and comparisons, as said, not really anything comparable.

It works out at less than a pound a week, hardly worth grumbling over if you use it regularly.

I was being deliberately vague to see what was about rather than specifics. I know there is nothing else now so just pay up or put up. Thanks.

Doesn’t do KOM but gives good data insights https://intervals.icu/
