Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: More to Explore at none against Bikesales's shown. More to Explore also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). Bikesales's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (43% vs 27%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
