To make the most out of Lacewheel, you'll need to have a Strava account. Lacewheel integrates seamlessly with Strava to gather data about your rides, which allows it to provide personalized maintenance recommendations. By analyzing your ride history and habits, Lacewheel can predict wear and suggest the best times for maintenance, ensuring your bike stays in peak condition.

While you don't need to be a professional mechanic, a willingness to learn and apply simple mechanical concepts will enable you to confidently care for your bicycle. A basic understanding of bikes and some mechanical ability are all you need to get started. One exciting possibility we're exploring is the addition of tutorials and guides to our platform.

Lacewheel is currently in a limited beta phase, meaning we're rolling out access in stages to ensure a seamless experience for all users. Registrations will open progressively, allowing us to incorporate feedback and refine our platform to better meet your needs. Keep an eye out for updates on when new registration slots become available and join us on this exciting journey to simplify bike maintenance. We're expecting general availability of the platform in 2025.

At Lacewheel, we're committed to making bike maintenance accessible to everyone. That's why tracking maintenance for one bike will always be free on our platform. This allows every cyclist to experience the core benefits of Lacewheel without any financial commitment. For those who manage multiple bikes or seek to access advanced features (such as specialized support for indoor trainers) we'll offer a subscription-based model.
