Not user friendly. I am a chemistry physics major and I have no idea how to use it.

The Garmin Edge 530 is a great cycling computer. It is not only very user friendly, but very accurate and has every option for me to continue to upgrade other gear for my bike. The capability and durability is fantastic and I highly recommend this for any level of cyclist.

love the products it has so many nice features, I use it on my road rides, it even tell your weather conditions and weather alerts, such as flooding, it can also call someone for you in case of an emergency if you become impaired. good for everyone who wants the best of their bike ride or training. monitoring, cadence, power meter, heart rate, speed, distance, etc.
I bought this while training for my first century ride and to get more data than I could from an apple watch. I also wanted the speed and cadence sensors to improve the data from riding indoors on a simple resistance trainer. I was able to get more consistent data for both my outdoor rides and the indoor. The GPS seems to be accurate and reliable and the additional sensors rarely disconnected. I also really appreciated the routing features on longer rides, including the century. Some of the climbing features were great during long hill climbs to give me an idea of what was coming up and how long the climb would last. The 530 provides a lot of features and value if you don't need everything that the highest series offers.
I had the Edge500 for about 8 years and had recorded over 50k on it with zero issues. Upgraded just because... and the 530 has a better display that's bigger and brighter. I don't use all the features but I like the incident detection as I ride alone 90% of the time. I've loaded a route when I was riding in a new area for a club ride so that was helpful to keep me on course while leading at the front of the peloton. It integrates well with TrainerRoad outdoor workouts. I would highly recommend this for the price points and features!
