yahride

Apple Watch connects directly to your e-bike

Yah! Ride.

Leave the phone. Keep the whole ride.

Ride with just your Watch and bike. Yahride connects Apple Watch straight to a compatible drive system for live power, cadence, speed, battery, range, and assist—while recording the workout to Apple Health. Bring iPhone when you want the larger map and route tools.

Step 1 of 5: Get ready

A ride computer, not a generic tracker

Built around the bike beneath you

01

Telemetry from the drive unit

See speed, cadence, power, distance, battery, range, assist, temperatures, trip data, and supported bike details live over Bluetooth. These are bike readings, not estimates from the phone.

02

Route context on phone and wrist

Import GPX or save a completed ride as a route. Follow the dashed planned line beside your recorded trail, see progress and off-course status, and use optional beta turn cues when route geometry supports them.

03

Pages that fit your ride

Move metrics between pages instead of accepting someone else's dashboard. Keep a focused hero metric on iPhone or fill the Watch with a clean two-by-two grid built for quick glances.

A complete ride computer on your wrist

Your phone can stay home.

Apple Watch connects directly to the saved bike over Bluetooth, records the workout with its own sensors and GPS, and keeps live ride and bike data on your wrist. The iPhone is an optional bigger view—not a relay you have to carry.

Good to know

Before your first ride

Setup takes a compatible bike, a few Apple permissions, and a short Bluetooth pairing flow.

See all questions
Do I need an Apple Watch?

No. The Watch provides the preferred workout experience, but Yahride can connect, record, map, and save a ride from iPhone alone.

Do I need to carry my iPhone?

No. After setup, Apple Watch can connect directly to your saved bike, show live bike and workout metrics, record with Watch GPS and sensors, and save supported data to Apple Health. Bring iPhone for its larger live map, route library, imports, and exports.

Can Yahride change my bike settings?

No. Yahride reads supported telemetry and uses only the session commands needed for recording. It has no derestriction, speed-limit, or assist-tuning features.

Does the route need an internet connection?

Your saved route geometry stays local. Apple Maps may use network services for its map presentation, while the planned route, recorded trail, and course status come from the route loaded in Yahride.

Where do finished rides go?

When you save, supported workout data goes to Apple Health and Fitness. Yahride also keeps local ride context and can export GPX, TCX, or FIT files.
