Come off at speed and Vygard raises the alarm for you.
Road, gravel or the commute — Cycling mode watches for the hard, high-speed impact of coming off the bike, keeps your people on your live location, and publishes the ride to Strava once you're home safe.
- 10sLive location cadence
- 1-tapSOS to your people
- AutoStrava publish
A crash on the bike is exactly the kind of thing nobody sees when you ride alone. Cycling mode runs a crash classifier tuned to the high-speed impact of coming off — not the buzz of the road or a kerb hop — so it stays quiet until it genuinely matters, then escalates fast.
Crash detection at speed, a theft alarm and one-tap Strava.
- High-speed crash detection, tuned so road buzz and jumps don't false-trigger
- One-tap SOS with live location to your trusted contact
- Bike-theft motion alarm while you're in the café
- One Strava connection auto-publishes the ride as a Ride
How Cycling works, step by step.
- 1
Open Cycling on the home screen
Launch Vygard Sports and tap Cycling. The crash classifier and screen retune for riding — a big glanceable status you can read at a glance, nothing fiddly to tap with gloves on.
- 2
Set who to alert (once)
Add your trusted contact the first time. They're the person Vygard calls and messages if you crash — set once, used across every mode.
- 3
Ride — Vygard watches in the background
Location samples every ~10 seconds and the accelerometer watches for a high-speed impact. Road vibration and kerb hops are filtered out so you don't get false alarms mid-ride.
- 4
A crash starts a countdown
If it detects a crash, a loud countdown appears. Fine? Cancel it. Can't reach the phone? When it expires, Vygard alerts your contact — and on the monitored tier a UK alarm-receiving centre — with your exact location.
- 5
Café stop — arm the theft alarm
Leave the bike locked and Vygard can alert your phone if it's moved while you're inside.
- 6
Home safe — publish to Strava
Connect Strava once and the ride auto-publishes with the right activity type. Your safety session and your training log in one action.
