An editorial reading of the saved reviews

The native app for Cannondale bikes is valued for service reminders, working with the rear radar and on-screen alerts, and connecting to sensors over Bluetooth. It breaks often, the app drains the phone battery within a dozen or so miles, speed and distance are inflated, and sharing a ride throws an App Store promo video instead of a link. The lack of an Apple Watch version and losing the sensor connection, which stalls a ride on pause without resuming, add to the pain.

What users experience

3 excerpts from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

On one bike, it gives the speed and distance at about 1.5x. So when I'm doing 10mph it says 15. I go 5 miles it says 7. Useless.

I love this app but it's only good for short rides. I did a 40 mile ride this weekend and my 100% charged phone died after 20 miles.

When my friend and I try to send each other our rides, it provides a link to download the app rather than a link to the ride.
