What Only Trail Hits® Does
Connect inspections, customer approvals, and service history with real ride data that brings riders back when service is due.
Voice Inspections That Close Estimates
Techs narrate findings; Trail Hits® Scribe turns them into a formatted estimate. The customer approves or declines each service in the app, by email, or by text, before you ever touch the bike.
See the inspection-to-approval loop →A Complete Service Record for Every Bike
Give customers a free, shop-branded app with every inspection and every Lightspeed repair record. They connect a ride source and the app alerts them when a component or service is due, using bike ride data and recorded maintenance.
See the customer service history →Service Alerts Driven by Real Ride Data
Strava, Garmin, Wahoo, Karoo, Ride with GPS, and Apple Health feed component wear automatically, so the next service reminder is based on how the bike is actually ridden, and it brings the rider back to you.
How ride data drives service →Fits How Your Shop Already Works
Trail Hits® adapts to your shop, not the other way around. Change nothing about how you work, or hand more of it to Hub when you're ready. Or record how you actually run and Hub reshapes itself to it.
Keep Your Estimate Workflow
Most Lightspeed shops send the work-order PDF as the estimate. Keep doing exactly that, Hub doesn't force its estimate flow on you. Or run inspection-to-estimate in Hub and push it to Lightspeed with one tap, the way you always have. Your call, per work order.
How the Lightspeed sync works →Read-Only: Touch Nothing in Lightspeed
Worried about a new app writing to your POS? Connect in read-only mode and Hub never writes back to Lightspeed. You still get inspections, customer history, parts forecasting, and the customer app, all from data Hub only reads. Switch on two-way sync whenever you're ready.
See data safeguards →Run Rentals From the Same Hub
Renters book bikes, skis and snowboards on your own page, with dates, rider details, a signed waiver and Stripe payment. Each rental stays with its own fleet item and service history. Enable Snow Rentals for your shop, then set up the categories and equipment you offer.
Bring Your Service Workflow Together.
Keep inspections, work orders, customer records and scheduling in one workflow. Compare the tools your shop uses with the Hub features available on your platform and enabled for your shop before replacing another service.

Bike Fit & Measurements
Shops capture cockpit, saddle, and dropper measurements in Hub. The fit lands on the customer's bike in their app and travels with them. Customers share a QR code with any destination shop to rebuild the bike to exact spec. Fit data finally belongs to the rider.

Common Questions
What does the free trial include?
Your first month is free: access to supported Hub workflows, including voice-AI inspections, work orders, CRM, parts forecasting, and Lightspeed sync. Platform and shop-module availability applies. Texting requires paid access and supervised provider activation. No credit card to start. When you're ready, pay annually and your second month is free too. That's $990 for the year.
Does it work with Lightspeed?
Yes. Hub integrates directly with Lightspeed R-Series. Customer data, labor catalogs, and work orders sync automatically. Estimates push back with one tap.
How is this different from my POS?
Your POS tracks transactions. Hub adds digital inspections with photos and voice, component-level wear tracking, predictive parts demand from ride data, and customer-facing reports that build trust and close estimates.
Will my mechanics actually use this?
Hub was designed with mechanics. Voice-to-text lets techs narrate while working. The iPad app auto-saves every 30 seconds. Start with an inspection workflow that fits your team.
Is Hub a web app or an iPad app?
Both. Hub runs in any web browser on the computer at the desk or the counter, and as a native iOS app on iPhone and iPad at the bench. One login and one record, whichever screen is closest.
We tried shop software before and it flopped.
Most shop tools ask you to change how you work. Hub plugs into your existing Lightspeed workflow. The inspection pipeline eliminates the biggest time sink (manually loading labor SKUs) instead of adding busywork.
Do customers need the Trail Hits® app?
No. Customers approve estimates and message your shop from a text or email link, with nothing to download. When they do use the free Trail Hits® app, they also get live repair status and their full service history, and their ride data feeds your parts forecasting with wear predictions no POS can provide.
Can Hub really replace the apps we currently pay for?
Yes. Hub combines digital inspection software, work order tracker, service CRM, parts inventory management, tech scheduling, customer messaging, rental booking, special orders, and a hosted shop page, with supported Lightspeed workflows. Availability varies by platform and enabled shop modules. SMS requires paid access and supervised provider activation. Review supported workflows and messaging activation with Trail Hits before replacing another service. And Hub is one flat $99/mo per shop, no matter how big your service team gets.
Does Hub support e-bike service?
Yes. Hub includes guided e-bike electrical diagnostics for battery capacity, motor health, and controller checks, with manufacturer-specific protocols for Bosch, Shimano, and other major systems. Built-in safety assessment covers indoor storage, charging guidelines, and fire-safety documentation.
How long does setup take?
Create your shop account and connect Lightspeed. Customers and labor catalog sync automatically. Set up the supported workflow your team needs first; timing depends on your shop and integrations.
