Stop Paying Monthly Subscriptions for Your Own Cycling Data (Free Strava & TrainingPeaks Alternative)
The High Cost of Basic Training Charts
Think about what you have already invested in your cycling setup: a power meter costs $500 to $1,000, a GPS bike computer is another $300 to $600, and a smart trainer runs anywhere from $500 to $1,200. Yet after buying precision gear, fitness apps ask you for another $80 to $125 every single year just to view the charts your own pedals generated.
Over five years, an everyday rider can easily spend more than $1,000 in software subscriptions just to see basic power curves and fitness graphs. If you stop paying, your charts and training history are locked away behind a paywall. ChainLink was created to give you complete freedom over your data.
Your Data Belongs to You: Three Simple Principles
Every pedal stroke, heart beat, and GPS coordinate comes from your hard work on the bike. We believe you should always have access to your data without barriers:
- Full Historical Access: Look back at all your personal bests, power records, and training miles across multiple years without arbitrary cutoffs.
- Free Core Training Science: Get proven fitness and fatigue modeling (CTL/ATL/TSB) completely free.
- Total Data Export: Download and export your complete activity records anytime you want.
