A Happy Upgrade
on July 19, 2022
Posted by: bigbruce
I have been using a 530 and Edge Explore. The 1040 is much more device in form, performance and function than either of those individually or combined. I am learning and seeing new ways to utilize this nearly every time I ride. Access to the features is simple through the touch screen and it is by far the best Garmin interface that I have used and Connect easily folds the 1040 into my existing Garmin stable of products. It is expensive no doubt, but no more so than the other cycling baubles that we collect.

First impression

Just got this and did an initial setup, realized there’s a bug on the emergency contact display, there’s no back option once you get to that screen, surprisingly annoying tbh.

Great computer for the bike especially when you have no cell service. Bought to replace the 1000 which the on button broke.

I’ve had at least the last 4 flagship Garmin Edge devices and this one is truly next level! Great job, Garmin

I bought my new Edge 1040 a month ago and have been very pleased with it. Lots of new features from my old edge1000 and the battery life is much better.

Great Maps
on August 8, 2022
Posted by: Kamas
Bought this to upgrade 530 and in particular the map features. No disappointment. Touch screen functionality is better than I expected. Clear display - very sharp on street names and I like the wider view. Faster loading courses. Included tether is hard to thread. Battery is impressive. Easily added my sensors and calibrates power meter nicely. The Climb Pro feature has a bug - there is a significant lag such that it shows you at the start of a climb when you are already well into it. As with the 530, the Group Connect function is a fiction - it picks up connected riders only sporadically.

Great stuff, but…

Display significantly better than 1030‘s.
Some good innovative apps but still no option to highlight own route/ line!
