My partner gave this to me as an upgrade to my Edge 200, and at first I didn’t want to learn how to use it (I liked my old one). I started training with a heart rate monitor this year and it’s awesome to see my heart rate while I ride. I love how I can easily customize the number of data fields shown, as well as switch out the type of data in each field. I love to see the “recovery time” after the end of each ride, and I keep falling in love with more features as I geek out more and more!
Very pleased with ease of starting and stopping bike runs. Display is very clear and steady. Love the mileage display and timer. Overall the best product I have tried. Thankyou.
This was a birthday gift from my wife and a great one at that! As I become a more advanced cyclist, this is just what the doctor ordered. I’m still learning how to use all the features but I’m loving it. I’m wondering if a touch screen would make it a tad easier to use, but the buttons help prevent touch screen mistakes.
The garmin 530 works exactly as its described and exactly what I need it for. No complaints.
The only thing i have is not a complaint, but more of a wish list. Some riders don't need a full on separate biking flashlight. Some just need a light to be seen. Maybe future units can be built with a low powered led light on the device.
