Recent reviews for this item: jfcarrier, June 28, 2011 Only deception is the HRM, it's the old version not the
"premium" model. But it still works perfectly. bke99, January 25, 2011 Love this. Have wanted one for a long long time. Great for
on the trainer during snow/rain days, and awesome outside as
well. All the stats you ever need. AND Garmin hit the
jackpot by thinking of including an extra bike mount to
easily switch the unit over. They provide plenty of extra O
rings as well. Why not include the Premium HR strap instead
of the outdated standard model? Also garminConnect *was* a
great tool, but unfortunately switched from Google to Bing
maps, meaning aerial coverage looks like a kids colouring
photo of earth from space. CameO, August 17, 2010 It has a lot a features and adjustability - very nice that
you can modify 3 different screens to display whatever
functions you want. Speed accuracy is not perfect -
comparing to a hard mounted cycle computer, but you have
to understand that is inherent in all GPS's. I am a bit
worried about the handlbar/stem mount - rubber "O-rings"
only hold the unit in place. At 400 clams I really don't
want to lose my computer when an o-ring fails, which it
will. I safety wired it to my bars for an added measure of
safety.
My 120V charger did not charge from new. Garmin will send
me a new one but I am on the hook for all duties / taxes.
WTF ? Garmin support - you suck. JW, April 29, 2010 No better unit. Tons of battery, 3 great screens, totally
customizable, set it up how you want or change it on the fly
or for certain rides. The interface is well designed and
simple. Only downfall...seems to be a bit of button pushing
for setting up the pages, but once you learn the interface,
it's nothing to worry about. The new mount is great on the
the stem or handle bars. Data sinc is seamless, never ever
have issues. Totally reliable and the free use of Garmin
Connect to monitor and store your data is icing on the cake!
Buy it, you wont regret it...unless all you care about is
how fast your going...then spend the $25 on something
cheap...otherwise, buy it!
