Overview

BikeScout is a specialized AI engine for MTB, Road, E-Bike, and Gravel mission planning. It transforms raw map data into tactical intelligence, predicting terrain conditions and trail hazards. The system provides precise setup advice, tailoring equipment to specific route demands and identifying technical challenges before rides. It operates as an MCP server, offering tools for route planning, terrain analysis, bike setup advice, and post-ride analysis.
