> key differentiators
From browsing comments, nobody on HN rides downhill. Which makes sense. A solid year of no concussions from some forced time off (hey titanium rods, what's up) and I'm a better programmer than I've ever been.
But anyway.
Strava won't track downhill runs as separate from the lift ride. Everyone agrees that this sucks. Nobody has made a move at a solution (as far as I know).
If MTBX has solved this problem, and no others, it's worth its weight in gold.

How are you tracking? Bike computer and smart watches should be able to differentiate these well enough. You can also remove datapoints after uploading rides to strava.
