MTB Mate: Suspension & Tires

Set your bike up properly — in about a minute.

MTB Mate turns your weight, your bike and how you ride into real starting numbers for tire pressure, fork and shock. Any brand, any bike. Then it remembers what you set, so next time you are not guessing from scratch.

START FREE, NO ACCOUNT NEEDED

Open the app and use the tools right away:

• Tire pressure — front and rear, adjusted for tire width, bike type and bike weight
• Sag calculator — measure and check your fork and shock sag
• Complete setup — walks you through a whole bike from zero
• Learn — plain-language guides to tires, suspension and the setup loop

No signup. No paywall on the basics.

BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY RIDE

Pick your level and the app reshapes around it:

• Casual — one screen, one number, go ride
• Expert — rim width, temperature, pack weight, comfort/performance balance

The maths never changes. Only how much of it you see.

STOP LOSING YOUR SETTINGS

Save a setup per bike and per rider. After a ride, say how it felt — harsh, vague, diving in corners — and it gets recorded against the exact setup you ran. Weeks later you can still answer the question that actually matters: what did I change, and did it help?

Multiple riders. Multiple bikes. Works offline, syncs when you are back on signal.

AN ADVISOR THAT REMEMBERS YOUR BIKE

Describe what you felt on the trail in your own words — type it or say it — and get one specific change to try, with the reasoning behind it. It knows your bike, your last setup and what you said about your last ride, so it does not start from zero every time. Powered by AI.

WHY THERE IS NO SHOCK CHART

No manufacturer publishes a pressure-by-weight chart for rear shocks — frame leverage ratio makes one impossible. Rider weight plus sag is the manufacturer-standard method, and it is what MTB Mate uses. Where real factory baselines exist, they are free. We do not charge for accuracy.

MTB Mate gives you a starting point, not a rule. Always respect the pressure limits printed on your tire, rim and suspension components. Suspension setup is personal — ride it, feel it, adjust it.
