I race downhill and I'm bad at remembering what I changed on my bike and why. Notes app wasn't cutting it.
So I built Suspend. It knows which adjustments your fork and shock actually have, keeps a history of your settings, and after a ride you tell it how the bike felt and it gives you specific click/psi changes to try. Yes, that part uses AI. If that's not your thing you can just use the notes app on your phone.
I'm 16 and I've been working on this since January between school and racing. Most of the testing was lapping Boyne Highlands, my local bike park, with different settings.
It's free on iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id6770110746
Would love feedback, even the harsh kind.

What a great thing to spend your time doing. This act of creation is something to be encouraged.
Given that, it seems like the recommendations are provided by an AI. What testing have you done with different bikes and riders of different weights to have confidence that the recommendations are good/helpful?
Not trying to be a dick, but your account history is fishy.
-Post asking for help setting up a shock.
-Account is totally dormant for a year.
-Post promoting new suspension set up app.
I tried the app. It asked for my email address before letting me do anything. For me that’s a dealbreaker for some random app.
Did you call it SuspensionFinderrz?
I feel like I’m in groundhog day, every couple months these posts come up

Looking at the compression and rebound settings, id recommend changing that let the user input how many clicks from fully closed they’re using. Right now it just has a plus or minus value making it a little confusing
Android app?
I’m braindead on this stuff but this is really dope dude. Big ups and congratulations on creating something like this
