Does anybody know if there's an Organic Maps equivalent for cycling?

OSM has a lot of data that's only available in everything-maps like OsmAnd, such as location of bicycle parking spaces or quality of cycle lanes. It would be nice to have it in a nicer interface than that app.

I'm currently building a bike + public transit directions engine (bringing your bike on the train). I'm surprised that this doesn't exist yet; it's my favourite way to get around!

Organic Maps does include bicycle parking POIs. Also some local transit apps do have bike+train routing options for bike carriage and bike sharing: https://anachb.vor.at/

I agree though that something like this is missing in the offline-first maps space.

It also includes an elevation layer that can be useful while biking

Care to share a link ? What does it provide compared to Motis's multimodal capabilities ?
