Great Foundation for a Cycling Eco System

I'm a huge Garmin fan for some of there reason's I believe people are committed to Apple products: they just work. Speed, cadence, HR, and rear-radar/light all come into this head unit as soon as I start. When I finish, I save the ride and it's automatically uploaded to Strava and Garmin Connect--where the rest of my the metabolic information from my other Garmin devices resides--making my progress super simple to track.
I upgraded to the 540 from the 530 head unit, and the touch screen works without a hitch. If there is one thing I do find annoying, it's that it gives me almost too much info while I'm on the road, which means I'm sometimes flipping through screens. As I get more familiar with it, is gets easier to use.

A lot of data

A little hard to set up with power pedals. A couple of calls into garmin and the data I wanted is now mostly available. Be warned if you bought these for rehabbing a surgery like I did, there is a minimum watt output for some functions to work. So you might not get all the data until you have gained strength and power. This was a bit disappointing considering cost of pedals plus computer and its a non-issue for some tech data like pedal steadiness, watts, etc on the 'watt bike' branded bike

Exactly as described

It's functionally perfect, user friendly, recently used it on a mountain biking adventure, and it was very reliable, kept up with my mileage and tracked by trip. Was easy to install and kept up with the abuse we put it through on our trip. This item is able to be used by any skill set from beginner to expert. Touch screen was responsive, could use some better mounting hardware though. Overall great experience.

I use this for road cycling. The battery life is amazing and new features above those on my okd 820 make it that much better

Ce qui me fallait
on May 15, 2024

Le bundle Garmin 840 est le parfait upgrade pour remplacer mon ancien ordi de bord pour vélo. La prise en main est facile et rapide. Les sensors des appareils dans le bundle étaient déjà connectés à l'appareil, ce qui est plus, car tu ça facilite la prise en main. L'écran tactile fonctionne très bien ainsi que les divers boutons sur l'appareil garmin. Les données affichées sont visibles facilement sur l'écran et la navigation entre les pages est fluide. Je recommande sans hésiter ce produit pour le vélo de route et de gravel.

Super reliable. It has functioned as designed with no service disruption. I cycle almost everyday. Routes and segments work great. GPS speed can be off some times.
