Only missing one element
on March 15, 2021

I’m enjoying the Garmin Edge 530 very much. Excellent layout and so far, in my only outing, I have only one wish: a wind speed & direction metric. But, the 530 read my sensors (Polar h10 heart & Bontrager Duotrap S speed & cadence), so no complaints!

Couldn't ask for more

The edge 530 is packed with features. For most it's probably more than you'll ever want. Battery life is great I have never had to even think about the battery during a ride. Even after a 4-5 hours of riding it is still at around 75%. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a bike computer that checks all the boxes. Only negative thing I can say about it is that the buttons feel a little mushy. Still actuate properly almost every time but you have to press them at just the right angle to get the click feeling. Overall a great device

I find this 530 very easy to use with enough features for even the most avid biker.

This is the best cycling computer I've ever owned! The capabilities of this unit are great and allow me to train my hardest each day. Whether I'm exploring new roads, or putting down the watts on my indoor trainer, the Edge 530 has me covered.

Only had this a couple of days now. Been on a couple of rides and so far so good, very happy with the mapping and display.

The Edge 530 is fully functional and has been very reliable. I especially like using the Climb Pro feature during long climbs. It uploads very quickly and reliably to Strava and Garmin Connect. I previously used the Edge 830 and prefer the physical buttons on the 530 over the 830's touchscreen. The only issue I have is the somewhat quirky interface when setting up and customizing the different screens.

Great data, need better use case training
on March 4, 2021
Posted by: RazelG
Loving all the stats, but turning all this data into useful information is a challenge for the beginner. It would be nice if the manual or online help included better explanations with use case examples: Guided pathways versus Q&As. I know there are training plans all set up on Connect, but I am still trying to work thru how to best apply them to improve my cycling fitness, but not go competitive. And as stated by others, the setup of the Garmin Edge is a chore and takes some trial and error.
