I've been using mtb:scale:imba on any kind of trail where signage at the site notes an IMBA rating, in this way it's verifiable based on the sign. I don't know what "bikepark" and "north shore" mean here but while some of these trails which have an IMBA rating can be consider together as part of a

IMHO, the problem is using mtb:scale:imba in place of mtb:scale for normal trails which I suspect the intent of the original wording was to avoid that happening. Simon Am 22.04.2020 um 10:53 schrieb Andrew Harvey: > I've been using mtb

I've never seen an official IMBA rating on a sign. I see both mtb:scale and mtb:scale:imba both used.   The wiki for mtb:scale doesn't make sense.   It's either skewed for extremely extreme riding or they don't understand gradient.   It says that for mtb:scale=1, gradient<40%.   This is meaning

I'm going to change my mind.   I don't think mtb:scale:imba should be deprecated.   It should be used instead of mtb:scale because it is better.   The IMBA Trail Difficulty Rating System was designed for all trails, not just bike park trails or trails with features. It follows that OSM should u
