BikeNet 2.0 betaBikeNet 2.0 Ride
GPS routes, navigation, elevation, speed, and complete ride summaries.
NXS is here. BikeNet 2.0 is the next big ride.
Keep your bike.
Change how it shifts.
NXS turns the cable-actuated derailleur you already trust into a programmable wireless shifting system.
The current BikeNet app supports NXS setup, tuning, firmware, and diagnostics. BikeNet 2.0 is the bigger leap: one app for the bike, every ride, every route, every sensor, and—with NXS—every shift. It is being tested with real riders now.
One small servo. A new layer of ride data.
NXS shifts your derailleur and reports every gear change to BikeNet—unlocking shift counts, gear usage, and gear-by-gear ride analysis.

NXS today.
A bigger BikeNet next.
The current BikeNet app is available for iPhone and Android specifically to set up, tune, update, and support the NXS shifting system.
BikeNet 2.0 is not just another ride recorder. For riders with or without NXS, it connects GPS rides, the bikes in your Stable, BLE sensors, routes, service history, cloud sync, Strava, and deeper drivetrain data.
Own NXS? Use the current app.
Download the NXS companion app for setup and support. For ride features or use without NXS, apply to test BikeNet 2.0.
Connect
Standard BLE sensors connect directly to the phone. The NXS motor adds the hardware hub required for ANT+ sensors.
Stable
Bikes, photos, components, specifications, setup, and service context.
Complete Strava
BikeNet 2.0 uploads the activity while preserving shifting data and gear analysis Strava cannot show.
These are BikeNet 2.0 features: the current public app does not provide this general cycling experience. NXS adds native shift events, gear usage, and gear-colored route data to 2.0 when the shifting system reports them.

Designed for every bike.
Now in beta.
BikeNet 2.0 is the upcoming cycling companion for recording rides, following routes, collecting compatible BLE sensor data, and keeping results attached to the bike you rode. These features are not in the current NXS companion app.
Ready to ride
The essentials at a glance
Start an outdoor ride with speed, elapsed time, cadence, and the selected bike arranged for quick reading on the move.
On the road
Keep the map with the metrics
Follow your position without leaving the ride screen while the app keeps recording sensor and ride data in the background.
After the ride
Review more than distance
Moving and stopped time, speed, elevation, cadence, and other available sensor totals stay together in one complete summary.
Your history
Every ride stays with its bike
Browse completed activities with the bike, date, distance, moving time, average speed, and elevation already attached.

At a glance
BikeNet 2.0 for the ride.
NXS for the drivetrain.
BikeNet 2.0 is designed to work with or without NXS. The current public BikeNet app is different: it exists only as the companion utility for NXS hardware.

What you actually buy
Not just another component.
More control.
NXS is intentionally unremarkable hardware. Its job is to get out of the way while giving an ordinary mechanical drivetrain abilities normally tied to an expensive, closed electronic groupset.
Keep the drivetrain you love
Add electronic wireless control to a standard cable-actuated 1x derailleur without replacing the cassette, chain, crank, or derailleur.
Tune without stopping
Enter tune mode and make small position corrections from the handlebar remote. The adjustment follows the gear instead of becoming a compromise across the cassette.
Make every press yours
Map button actions, control multishift timing, tune shift behavior, and skip a cog you do not want to use.
Know what happened
BikeNet 2.0 is designed to record NXS shifting alongside the ride, turning gear choice and route position into useful history.
TapHoldTuneRemap
Two buttons, more control
Simple when riding.
Deep when tuning.
The remote stays intentionally simple because the trail is not the place for menus. Tap for one gear. Hold to move across the cassette. Enter tune mode when a gear needs a small correction. Use BikeNet when you want to change what a press means.
Eyes upLarge physical controls you can operate without looking down.
No cable routingA clean cockpit and no shift housing running through the frame.
Adjust while ridingFine-tune the active gear from the remote in a safe riding area.
Change it laterButton behavior and shift feel are configuration, not permanent hardware choices.
Precise setup. Personal control.
Set every gear precisely.
Choose how your shifting responds.
Real drivetrains flex, wear, and behave differently under load. NXS exposes the useful controls while keeping motor engineering and safety limits out of the rider's way.
Per-gear setup
Map the real position of every cog instead of relying on one generic cable-pull ratio.
Positive shifts
Set overshift distance and dwell so the chain commits to the next cog, then settles at its exact position.
Controlled multishift
Choose how quickly a held button moves across the cassette.
Gear lockout
Skip a cog or ratio you do not want to use without changing the rest of the setup.
Starting gear
Choose where the bike wakes up so it is ready in the gear that makes sense for you.
Front + rear logic
BikeNet is designed to coordinate connected drivetrain components as the system expands.
Inside BikeNet
What NXS
actually unlocks.
These screens show NXS setup alongside BikeNet 2.0 ride and gear analysis. The current public companion app covers NXS setup and control; the ride experience belongs to the 2.0 beta.
One control center
Set up, tune, and diagnose
BikeNet keeps cassette setup, manual positioning, ride-side tuning, shift behavior, load analysis, and device management together for the correct bike.
Shape the shift
Control how the motor responds
Choose the startup gear, overshift distance and dwell, multishift timing, and obstruction sensitivity instead of accepting one factory behavior.
Fit the real cassette
Position every cog precisely
Store the actual tooth count and motor position for each cog. NXS follows the cassette on the bike rather than assuming a proprietary spacing standard.
After the ride
See shifting as ride data
Review total shifts, most-used gears, average ratio, and how much of the route has known gear data alongside cadence and other ride metrics.
Gear by gear
Understand where each ratio works
Break the ride down by gear to compare time, distance, speed, shift count, tooth combination, and ratio—not just a single ride average.

BikeNet 2.0 beta
For riders with or without NXS.
Still in testing.
BikeNet 2.0 connects the bike, ride, and history whether or not you own our hardware. NXS adds the drivetrain layer: shifts and gears behind the speed, cadence, power, and route.
Build the bike once
In BikeNet 2.0, photos, specifications, components, service details, and setup stay attached to the correct bike—even when there is no NXS on it.
Ride with the sensors you own
BikeNet 2.0 pairs standard BLE speed, cadence, heart-rate, and power sensors directly to your phone. The NXS motor supplies the hardware hub for ANT+ sensor data.
Review the full story
BikeNet 2.0 gives every rider route and ride totals. NXS riders can also add native shifts, gear usage, time and distance per gear, and gear-colored routes.
Complete the Strava story
BikeNet 2.0 keeps shifting and gear analysis Strava does not support, then uploads the completed activity to Strava.
The NXS companion app is available now.
BikeNet 2.0 and the new My BikeNet portal are being tested before release.
Compatibility without allegiance
Built around cable pull.
Not a brand logo.
The current NXS kit is designed for standard cable-actuated 1x mountain-bike drivetrains. BikeNet's cassette library and per-cog setup let the system follow the hardware already on the bike instead of forcing one proprietary combination.

The actuator pulls the cable. Your derailleur still does the shifting.
Connected support
Less guessing.
More context.
The current BikeNet companion app can check NXS device identity, connection state, firmware, batteries, configuration, event counters, motor faults, and shift-voltage traces. When you ask for help, the conversation can start with useful device context.
Firmware updates and NXS diagnostics are available now. Ride recording, cloud history, and broader rider features belong to BikeNet 2.0.

Backed, built, and shipped
Started with riders.
Still built for them.
NXS began on Kickstarter because the idea was straightforward: electronic shifting should not require throwing away a working drivetrain. More than 300 riders backed it, and the project shipped around the world. The software, firmware, setup tools, and support system have kept growing around that same practical idea.
One bike. More possibilities.
Upgrade the experience.
Keep everything else.
The NXS 1x MTB kit includes the wireless actuator, compact handlebar remote, and mounting hardware.
