Quiver vs Componentry
Componentry's line is "know your bike, down to the individual component," and it means wear: how much life is left in each part. Quiver's is about identity: what each part actually is, and where that answer came from.
The short version
Pick Componentry if you want wear tracking that updates itself from Strava, Garmin, Wahoo or Hammerhead, you want it on Android or the web as well as iPhone, and you are happy entering your components once and paying yearly.
Pick Quiver if entering the components is exactly the part that has stopped you before. Quiver does not do wear tracking.
| Quiver | Componentry | |
|---|---|---|
| Main job | Know exactly what is on each bike, and what it cost | Track wear and service on each component |
| Getting a build in | Name the bike to find matching factory parts and published specs | Their guide describes adding the bike, then adding each component |
| Source shown for each spec | Yes, and unconfirmed values are marked | Your own entries |
| Per-size frame geometry | Yes, published geometry for your size | No. It stores your personal fit measurements, which is a different thing |
| Wear and service tracking | No, by choice | Yes, its core feature |
| Ride sync | No | Strava, Garmin, Wahoo, Hammerhead |
| Free tier | 1 current bike, unlimited retired, no time limit | A 2-month free trial, no permanent free tier listed |
| Price | Free, or $9.99 once for Pro | Cyclist plan, $49.99 a year on the App Store |
| Platforms | iPhone and Android | iPhone, Android and web |
What Componentry does better
Two things, clearly. It is on iPhone, Android and the web today, so it works whatever your riding partner carries. And it does the wear job properly, pulling rides from four different head units and services so your component life updates without you thinking about it. It also stores your fit measurements, which Quiver does not.
What Quiver does better
You do not type in the build. Componentry's own getting-started guide has you add the bike and then add each component; Quiver finds matching factory parts and published specs, with sources attached and a clear mark on anything it could not confirm. Stock parts and your upgrades stay easy to tell apart, per-size geometry is there when you are shopping, and the total invested is there when you sell or insure. One payment of $9.99, not $49.99 a year.
Can you use both?
Yes, and if you care about chain wear you probably should. Quiver holds the record of what the bike is. Componentry watches what that record is doing to itself.
