Has anybody seen/used the new Route Builder on Strava? I’m still seeing the older version. Any way to force the new version to load?
Try this link?
Still shows me the old version. I even logged out/in and used a different machine.
Does yours say “beta” in the upper left corner?
OK, me too actually (went back and looked at DCR’s “Old/New” pics. I wrongly assumed the “Beta” tag seen was the new one.
Mine via the link I shared:

Oh, me too lol.
The release stated the new builder would be coming over “the next few months”, so who knows when we will actually see it

Got all excited after reading DC Rainmaker’s review, but no go so far.

Never used Komoot. How’s the interface? Easy to use or does it take some getting used to?
I have this problem with Strava all the time, so that’s good to know. Thanks for your input! Honestly, none of these routing software are all that fast anyway so a bit of lag won’t really bother me as long as I’m getting routes that don’t try to route me over a river with no bridge (thanks Strava 
).
My Strava was showing everything old until about 30 minutes ago. I’m seeing the new Routes now. I’m not a subscriber so it’s behind a paywall, but can see a few things:

Crazy timing on this all, I shared the pic above (old site), and look what I just got by revisiting, as a “subscriber” (new site)…

That for me sums up strava: you need a link with “new” to reach it, after it is announced. huh?
Clicked two points and it broke anyway. Back to RideWithGPS.

Working fine for me. Just played with a new route and editing an existing one and working as expected.

There’s a dark mode . . .
Never mind Strava, I take back all the bad things I’ve thought about you over the past 24 hours.
Although
Strava: give us a couple months and we’ll get you a sweet new routes setup
Next day
Strava: SURPRISE! Oh and here’s a dark mode in case you’re into that.
Working good for me too. I like it and the routes dropped onto my Garmin watch and head unit.

Wondering if the new map has any changes in regards to gravel routes and planning. Some gravel roads just don’t work altogether with Strava’s route planning, and occasionally even well ridden tarmac won’t work either.
Near me there’s a climbing stretch of tarmac about 3 miles long, but for some reason, Strava makes me manually route it despite hundreds of cyclists, and even the Tour Of Utah riding up the exact stretch of road. It seems like their algorithm to determine an actively used route needs to be more than just a heatmap, because it’s definitely a busy road for cyclists. All other route planners has worked for it, but Strava never has. It always tries to re-route me onto a long mtb trail instead.
I might do a free trial and see if there are any changes to these types of routes.
