Bike Repair

The main function of the Bike Repair app is to help diagnose and solve mechanical problems with your bike. Select the problem area – dérailleurs, brakes, wheels etc – and the app filters down common procedures to get your bike running smoothly again. There are 58 repair guides and over 300 photographs as well as a comprehensive tips and tricks section, which includes bike fitting fixes too.

If you've worn a component out or just want an upgrade, there's also a product finder with price comparison for 11 online stores in £, US$ and AU$. There's even more though – you can specify the air temperature to get kit recommendations for that day's ride as well as store your own preferences to refer back to. The Bike Repair app really is bulging with useful features.

Ride With GPS

If you're looking for a feature-rich bike computer app, your search can stop at Ride With GPS – it does pretty much everything. As well as all the regular speed, distance and time fields, the feature list includes maps; elevation graphs; turn-by-turn navigation; Bluetooth support for cadence, heart-rate and power; route tagging with photos; and live GPS tracking so friends and family can see where you're up to on your ride. It also allows easy use of the routes on the Ride With GPS website, which is often cited as one of the most accurate for route and elevation data. There's no auto-upload to Strava, but files can be exported in various formats for cross-platform sharing.
