Would be good to have maintenace informattion for your equipment integrated in Strava.

Perhaps more useful for biking, you could ad manually entries about, for example:

- When you changed tubeless liquid

- When you changed tha chain

- When you made fork maintenace

Crossing this data with activities data, you could get a "timeline" with all mainteninece operations you have done. So you can know hom many hours of use/kilometers/time since you made maintenance and you will know when you have to do again.

Aditional option could be to add alerts like "Made fork maintenance after 100 hours" "Change tubeless liquid after 6 months" "Replace chain after 2000 km" and Strava reminds it once time has fulfilled according to the data of activities. On the same way, you could know the time/kilometers left until you need to do new maintenance operations

I support more gear data as well.  Some good ideas in this thread, some seem more complex than others to implement.

Showing hours, maybe even vert in addition to mileage would be great.  I think mostly in terms of hours (mountain biking) so mileage is fairly irrelevant.  

I use a bit of a workaround in that when I do a major overhaul, mostly suspension service on my bikes I usually retire the bike and start it again with 2.0, 3.0 etc after the name.  Reset trip!  

Also, if folks plug in velo viewer, they show all the data I'm mentioning.

Please add mileage alerts to all gear, not just shoes. I'd like to get an alert to re-wax my chain after 250 miles, just like my running shoes.

Strava tracks mileage on your bike and to some degree the rigor of the ride.  This data can be used to suggest routine maintenance intervals,and if you enter your specific bike model info you can get very good preventive maintenance details that OEM’s could load like Trek and others.  Then the app can show suggested bike shops to perform the work and allow scheduling to occur.

Great that you're consolidating the suggestions, but when can we actually get this feature added???

There is a ton of support and interest in it on the platform - please implement service reminders - or at a minimum let us log when the last service was done and show mileage on the bike since that service.

Thank you!

Hi, today I was talking about this maintenance feature in the Strava software. Any user who likes to take care of their equipment would certainly see this functionality as a great differentiator and facilitator. Knowing when the inspections were carried out, component durability, upcoming maintenance and total cost, per km, per hour, would be very welcome these days! Simple and effective way to take care of the bike and the pocket!

Hi, any news on this?

Maybe someone already built an app using the Strava APIs to do this?

I was using the Annual Summary from Jonathan O. Keeffe but seems not working anymore.

Hi, a bit of a late reply but the ProBikeGarage app might be what you're looking for. It syncs with Strava and you can even automatically match different gear with different types of rides (eg different wheels for commuting/riding).

yes @matias- thanks!
Actually I've found another app (free) doing same as ProBikeGarage.

App I'm using is the HUBTIGER.

but still would be great (and suppose to be easy) to have these simple features on Strava it self.

Is there any movement on this as a concept? Another upvote from me. My Yeti link needs greasing every 50 hours, and I’d like to know roughly when I’m getting close!

User could even store the link to the merchant that supplied the part last time (like tire or inner tube, etc).

Great post! I agree with the usefulness of this kind of record. Even BETTER would be creating a mechanic's notes/ records section that is verified with a bike shop. This would offer invaluable information when you sell or trade in your bike. Having all the maintenance paperwork, list of components serviced/replaced, and tune-ups done. Think of a "CarFax" like printout that you could have when you post a bike for sale or bring it in for a trade-in - all tied into the serial number. Great way for bike shops to track customers and help cyclists know when to bring a bike in for maintenance.

What about a feature to account maintenance on e.g. bikes. Each time one rides with new parts or a maintenance has been done, we should be able to register what was done and kilometers or hours.

This already (mostly) exists in https://www.strava.com/settings/gear, though I think it's desktop/web only? If you click in to a bike, you can add components and set a date when the component was added. Once you swap it out you can click retire on the component to archive it with its distance. It doesn't track time, only distance.

You may also want to check out https://www.probikegarage.com/ for more in-depth maintenance tracking.

Hi,

Additional info in case it helps you: When you put a component with specific date, Strava could calculate all activities from the specific date and put kilometers calculated. For example: today ( 26/06/2024) I put a cassette with date 26/05/2024 (a month before). If I had 5 activities with 100 km in total (that month), the component could show the 100km ( at now Strava show 0 km)
