About this app

Specialized Ride is your go-to app for recording bike rides, analyzing your cycling metrics, planning rides with friends, and cycling safely when riding by yourself.

BE SAFE ON YOUR RIDE
Have peace of mind on all your bike rides when you connect your Specialized ANGi sensor with the Ride app and enable Live Tracking.

If your ANGi detects a crash event where you’ve likely been knocked unconscious, your emergency contacts will be sent an email or text alert from your phone and notified of your location.

Live Tracking allows your emergency contacts to follow you along during your ride. Simply turn on ride alerts for an emergency contact and the app will automatically notify them when you’ve started a ride.

RIDE RECORDING & POST-RIDE ANALYTICS
Whether you’re training for a race or event, using your bike for commuting or getting around town, or to explore the trails with your friends, you can use the free ride recorder to track all of your bike rides.

The Ride app automatically tracks stats like speed, distance, time riding, and elevation. When you’re done riding, you can view the ride history and analytics tabs to see how your activity is trending.

We offer full integration with Garmin, Wahoo*, and Strava, so it’s extra easy to record rides and share them with your friends.
If you have a heart rate monitor, cadence sensor, or power meter connected to your Garmin or Wahoo device, you can see that data as well.

SPECIALIZED BIKE REGISTRATION AND WARRANTY ACTIVATION
Although you can record a cycling activity on any bike using the Ride app, riders with Specialized bikes can use the app to register their bike and activate its warranty.

COMMUNITY EVENTS & GROUP RIDES
Be on the lookout for community events, bike demos, and more on the community tab in the Ride app’s feed.

If you enjoy riding with others, you can join and create group rides in the Ride app. The group message board lets you communicate with riders who’ve joined the ride and keeps everyone informed.

When you’re looking for a ride to join, you can search for rides based on day, time, type, and distance.
If you want to create a group ride, you can import a route, choose an existing route, or create a route using the route planner.

ROUTE LIBRARY & ROUTE BUILDER
If you need inspiration for your next ride, the Ride app hosts an ever-growing global library of bike routes.

Additionally, we have an easy-to-use route builder tool that is housed on ride.specialized.com.

Once you’re done creating a route, you’ll be able to add it to any group ride that you plan. Riders interested in joining will be able to see a map view of the route, as well as distance, elevation, and whether the route is on road, gravel, or the trails.




NOTE: Continued use of GPS running in the background may decrease phone battery life
*Incoming Wahoo connections will need to be established on ride.specialized.com

Don't bother with the negative reviews on this app. This is one of the best apps ever invented. As a safety feature, if the helmet detects a crash, and the ability to contact a "favourite" contact is quite literally, a life saver. Also, the ability for someone t ocheck where I am, is an amazing feature too. It means dinner is on the table as soon I cycle home from work <3 love it!!!!!

Started using this app due to my new ANGi equipped helmet, and the best part is that I found Strava because of this app. Pros: it supposedly sends emergency notification to chosen contact in the event of a crash. When it works, it seems to work well. Cons: you can't rely on it. It locks up at the "save" screen at least 30% of the time and fails to save the ride in this app AND also in Strava. I have lost data now for three rides and there won't be a fourth, because I plan to use Strava instead

Very disappointing. Bought new helmet with Angi sensor and when using Ride app, it is not even close to recording actual distance or info. When Strava says 10.0 miles, Ride says 1.9 miles. How can it be that far off. Even worse, all the data fields are cut off at the bottom making it very difficult and annoying to read. To me, this app is unusable. I have uninstalled and reinstalled, twice. No changes. I only turn Ride on for Angi sensor, but it's so frustrating I don't feel like using

Hi Scot, sorry to hear you’re having problems. The issue is likely due to your phone’s battery optimization settings, which can be changed in Settings&gt;Apps&gt;Ride App&gt;Advanced&gt;Battery.
