Tiiks vs TrailRig: Named Parts and Reviews vs Fork Science
TrailRig is a local-first MTB garage with fork charts, invoices, and parts that carry kilometers between bikes. Tiiks is named parts from factory presets, rider reviews, and Strava on every slot.
That is a suspension workshop notebook. It is not a parts library with rider reviews, and it does not claim Strava. Tiiks tracks the other half of the same bike: twenty slots, real brand parts, reviews with kilometers, and Strava distance on each fitted component.
The short version
Stay on TrailRig if you want a local-first MTB garage, fork and shock intervals in hours, Pro setup charts, invoices, and a Price Stalker and you do not need Strava or cross-brand reviews.
Choose Tiiks if you want named parts from factory presets, rider community ratings and rider reviews, Strava on twenty slots, push alerts, and a service-or-replace history on iOS and Android.
What TrailRig covers
TrailRig: MountainBike Component Tracker from Zoran Prole: is a maintenance log and digital garage for mountain, gravel, or road. No account; data stays on the device. You record frame, fork, shock, drivetrain, brakes, wheels, and dozens more, with brand, model, serial, price, weight, and photos. Kilometers follow a part when you move it between bikes. Fork and shock intervals can be ride-hours, distance, or time, with background reminders.
Pro unlocks a Suspension Setup Assistant with brand charts, sag targets, and a coil spring calculator; Damping Profiles and Tire Profiles; invoice scanning; an Invoices Vault; a Cost Dashboard; iCloud Sync; and a QR build-sheet. No ads. No tracking. If your happy place is paperwork plus fork science, the checkout is honest.
The table is the honest split. Everything below explains why each row matters for your garage.

What Tiiks covers
Tiiks is native on iOS and Android. Strava rides put distance on the bike and on each fitted component automatically. The part is a real brand model with specs, not only a row you typed. Rider reviews include real mileage. A color wear dashboard, push alerts, and a Home Screen widget keep those parts in front of you after every ride.
Quick answer
Does TrailRig connect to Strava?
Not that they claim. Kilometers on a part follow the component between bikes. Tiiks reads Strava and applies the ride to the bike and to each fitted slot automatically.
