About the project

Why CyclingRecs exists

Bike opinions are scattered across Reddit, YouTube, bike shops and forums. CyclingRecs puts those experiences in one place and lets riders add their own.

A bike that suits one rider won’t suit everyone. Knowing where someone rides, how far, which build they have and what they rode before often tells you more than a score on its own.

Riders, not promotions

No sponsored rankings. No paid placements. No ads, affiliate links or sales. Ratings come from rider submissions, and external comments stay separate from those ratings.

A work in progress

CyclingRecs is new. Submissions are moderated before publication, web reviews link to their sources, and bike details come from the makers’ own pages.

Adding your experience

You don’t need an account. Reviews are held for moderation before appearing publicly. Write about a bike you’ve actually ridden and be specific about what worked for you.

Your privacy

An alias is optional. If you leave an email address, it is stored privately with your submission and never included in public reviews. Leave it blank if you prefer.
