The Cycling Dashboard for Serious Climbers

Ride Smarter. Understand Your Terrain.

Unlock the real story behind your rides with CycleLytic. Forget raw speed. Cycling performance is about resilience over distance and how you conquer the terrain that tries to break you.

Whether you’re grinding toward that next fondo finish, prepping for epic mountain challenges, dialing in endurance, or measuring year-over-year progress, CycleLytic delivers the terrain-adjusted insights that actually move the needle.

Train with clarity. Ride with purpose.

CycleLytic Dashboard - Terrain Performance Analysis

The More You Climb…

  • The more watts you produce
  • The higher your heart rate rises
  • The more your speed profile shifts

Yet most ride summaries only show totals — distance, time, elevation — without revealing how terrain truly affects your output.

CycleLytic changes that.

Why Terrain-Adjusted Analysis Matters

Two 40-mile rides are never equal.

40 miles
800 ft climbing
40 miles
4,000 ft climbing

Traditional stats treat them similarly. CycleLytic does not. We normalise performance by climbing density, giving you a terrain-adjusted view of output, efficiency, and fatigue.

Performance, Measured Against Terrain

CycleLytic analyses your riding data and shows you:

  • How your power changes as climbing increases
  • How your heart rate responds to elevation gain
  • How your speed varies by climbing density
  • How you perform across flat, rolling, and climbing-heavy routes

Instead of “Was I strong today?” you’ll know: “How strong was I per unit of climbing?”

Five Terrain Buckets

Each segment of your ride is classified by elevation gain rate (metres per km).

Flat
<35
Rolling
35-49
Hilly
50-64
V. Hilly
65-79
Mountain
80+

See Your True Riding Profile

Are you…

  • A steady grinder on long climbs?
  • Strong on punchy rolling terrain?
  • Efficient on flats but over-threshold on steep gradients?
  • Improving power-to-elevation consistency over time?

CycleLytic reveals patterns you can’t see by looking at your riding data alone.
