Great Tool for Training

I purchased this computer for my daughter who wanted to get serious about her bike training. This has made it super easy for her to follow her coach's workout with a connection to training peaks. When used as a stand-alone bike computer it gives her all the info she could want and more. Great product and very easy to use.

App sucks

Got the 540 for my birthday after my last Garmin eventually died - the app is awful and continuously loops on setup so its unusable.

I’m on the edge of success with my new edge 540

This thing is a game changer for me in terms of amping up my ride and making it easier to evaluate my progress and have fun doing it. I love the customization options for each profile and ease of use. The display is big and easy to see while riding and changing screens on the go is cake. I use this with my Garmin connect to maximize enjoyment and utility and create challenges with other riders. Go Garmin.

Loved my 500 but this 540 is a whole other level!

With buying the Tacx Neo 2T, I needed to upgrade my computer to take advantage of all the features. I chose the 540 and am completely stoked about it!!! It took awhile to get used to the buttons but I am rockin' it now! The configurability, the color, the connectivity are all just excellent! Auto activity upload and live connection to my phone for setup options is super convenient! Great battery life and I keep the display on continuously during my 2-3 hr indoor rides! I think my only "cons" feedback would be that I sometimes press the one (or the other) of the lower buttons when trying to get a grip to press the upper left or right button. Those buttons set lap markers or pause the activity, neither of which are good things to do accidentally mid activity! I opted not to get the touchscreen + buttons version but because of the above "con" I think maybe the touchscreen feature would have been nice. Still, I really like the Edge 540!!!

Pretty good

I purchased it about a month ago. The mph recorded is definitely faster that what showed on my Edge 500. Plus would like cadence to show on the screed with mph and heart rate especially when I have the bike on the trainer. Overall a good purchase.

Not very happy with my purchase
on March 3, 2024
Posted by: Howardr33
The 540 bundle was just purchased Feb 3, 2024. I was unable to get the speed sensor to connect and there is no light on in the sensor when spinning the wheel. The heart rate sensor worked for two rides and now not working. I called the help line (on a Sunday) and its only open weekdays. I tried the Chat line but after 3 attempts and getting somehow disconnected I am getting pretty upset and will try again tomorrow. Maybe a weekday will work better or I may just be better off returning the item. I don't know why I expected there to be no problems and maybe its my fault that I waited a month to report the issues. I purchased the bundle for a week long extended bike trip that starts in 3 days. I am not feeling like this item is going on the trip at this point!!. I am glad I did not purchase the watch at the same time.
