Seat Preference
We've all been there - that awkward moment when two front-seaters approach one bike. Avoid this altogether by filtering out those same-seaters or try to work it out depending on how much you like the other person
Need a tandem bike partner?
Look no further - Tander helps you find the right tandem bike partner. Never ride a tandem bike alone again or face that awkward moment when you and your partner are both front-seaters. Whether you're a recreational rider or need a new commuting solution, use Tander to find your optimal partner for the best tandem biking experience.
Optimal Solutions
Spend less time finding a tandem partner and more time riding. Our neural network-based model utilizes sophisticated optimization techniques to optimally generate a model which can show you the best possible partners. From there, you take control. Swipe right if you think that person is someone you'd want go for a ride with - based on biking preferences, a general bio for conversation compatibility, and most importantly, calf circumference.
Setup is easy
Get started right away to avoid cycling on your tandem bike alone.
The Mechanism
Download Tander on any mobile device (must be 18 or older or have a parent/guardian's permission - if mom says no, ask dad, he'll probably say yes). Then follow the on-screen instructions to create your profile. Put in information like which seat you prefer, what your anthem is (everybody listens to music at some point when they're biking), some general interests so that you don't get stuck with someone really boring, etc.
A later version will have the trio feature, wherein you can expand your tandem group to include three-seat tandem bikes.
Features
Playlist + Conversation Starters
Link your Spotify/Apple Music account and we'll even generate a playlist for you and your tandem partner to listen to. If you have Tidal or anything else beside Spotify/Apple Music, quit.
We also generate some conversation starters for you two in case you need a boost!
Auto-Route Generation
Our program will automatically generate a riding route for your first date. Just get out there and get started :).

Crista, Front-Seat Aficionado
"Truly a revolutionary application. Everyone on Tinder just wanted to hook up and they never took me seriously when I said I just need somebody to ride a bike with."
Jessica, Back-Seat Powerhouse
"Finally, no more riding tandem bikes on my own. I can also find the perfect set of calves to take the helm in the front seat."
Erik, Cyclist
"I'm just a normal cyclist by day and programmer by night but now I can find somebody to take turns with me so one of us can code while the other bikes."
