I'm thinking about upgrading my bicycle as I see that my bike, which I've been riding for nearly 6 years, is breaking down in almost every way.
The derailleur hanger got bent from a fall, and the carbon frame also cracked ㅠㅠ Meanwhile, it seems I've ridden about 40,000 km during this time...
As I've gone through a lot of hardship while riding nationwide, it seems like it's time to let it go, so I've decided to upgrade.
Whenever I fix one thing, something else breaks soon after ㅎ
(I think the biggest issue is that I haven't maintained it well ㅠ)
As I'm upgrading this time, I came up with an idea, and I wanted to ask fellow enthusiasts whether this idea could practically
help with management such as shop maintenance schedules.
Typically, I know that chain replacement cycles are around 5,000 km, and sprockets are around 11,000-12,000 km.
I'm also thinking about studying maintenance-related topics a bit more.
Through cycling computers like Garmin, you can get riding information such as distance and elevation, and also which gear ratios were mainly used in actual riding records, etc.
I found that there are things you can obtain through Garmin record files
Based on this information, I want to save the basic information of my current bike and total riding distance,
and analyze the courses ridden (path information from gpx file routes)
[uphill-focused / flat-focused / bike paths like the Han River / public roads like national highways / including unpaved roads, etc.] in a somewhat automated way,
and through electronic drivetrain integration, track which gear ratios were mainly used, which gears are used most on uphills, and overall
usage frequency and all such information together.
Through this, I want to accumulate and organize all riding records, and based on cumulative distance and records, periodically notify riders through AI integration
about sprocket / chain / chain oil application cycles, etc.
I'm curious about what fellow enthusiasts think about this kind of personalized record-based information notification.
