Upgrading from a 520+, there is a massive difference screen resolution is much better and larger. So easy to set up just bluetooth to the phone and all data from your accessories ported straight over, everything worked however it picked up the radar but not the light but was simple to correct. You get the usual low quality Garmin (rubber band) mount, I prefer to buy a third party version. The maps are really impressive with plenty of detail I really liked the warnings for dangerous roads etc whilst riding, battery life is brilliant and I found the accessories connected far quicker than my old 520+. I did have an issue fitting this onto my existing bike mounts as it is quite large and it fowled on stem bolts and lights I had, so I ended up spending more money on mounting options. I did like the idea of a bike alarm built in which is great leaving it out of sight at cafe stops, the only disappointment was only three profiles. Although you can rename them the one that is 'indoor' has limited functionality it will not record any elevation only speed and distance as it's to be used on a trainer, so it only has two! Pro's 1. Large display with good resolution 2. Easy setup 3. Bluetooth connection very quick and solid 4. Mapping and guides 5. Touchscreen 6. Long battery life 7. Bike alarm 8. Road danger warnings 9. USB type 'C' Cons 1. Can be difficult to mount due to being large 2. Updates from the phone over bluetooth takes ages 3. Only two profiles 'road' and 'off road' 4. Low quality mounting kit

If you just want a GPS device for your bike without all the nonsense and the ridiculous price, this is great. You can connect heart rate & cadence sensors if you wish, but it doesn’t give all the training data that the high end devices do. However the mapping and data logging is pretty much identical to the higher end devices. You can add or take away data screens and customize them to show exactly what you need/want to see and the mapping is the usual Garmin quality. Battery life is good, but not exceptional, the UI easy to use and it connects to your phone via the Garmin connect app so all your stats are displayed for post ride analysis. Does navigation, data logging and basic sensor connectivity for 25% of the price of top end Garmin units.

Brilliant product, easy to navigate and use, plenty of options to personalise display. Easy to read when on the move and excellent battery life, overall 10/10

I bought this for long distance bicycle tours, I don't need all the athletic performance stuff. I feel that Garmin's designers are all young dudes obsessed with sport training and no idea about other kinds of cycling. THis is possibly the best touring GPS device but it's well short of ideal. I used to use a Garmin eTrex hiking computer which was pretty good, but this has a much clearer display. It's annoying on a long tour that it has a built in rechargeable battery as the eTrex used AAs which are so much more pracical on the road. I really like the way I can export routes direct from Ride With GPS to the device via my phone. You can customise it so you have a map/route display and a computer display and can swipe easily between the two (once you've got rid of the endless techy fitness displays) Annoying things include: 1. The climb displays just don't reflect the actual gradients you encounter, so they are pointless. 2. The device is too eager to re-route me when I've chosen my route with care and really want to be in control of my journey, not have some stupid American robot make my decisions. You can turn this off but it's easy to forget to do it. 3. The interface is a mess, it's a complex device and a lot of the complexity is stuff I don't want, but when there is something I want to change or set up and I have previously seen that setting screen, it's often impossible to find my way back to it. There's a weird kind of context-sensitive thing that means something that might be visible in one situation disappears in another, it just needs a more straightforward menu system. 4. It's definitely not a touring device even though it's promoted as such. It would be great to have a tour mode with only those features that you would want when navigating a long tour. 5. There's a REALLY weird thing that when you stop the display changes to show a huge 'Pause' symbol obscuring the map display. (Hey Garmin I know that I've stopped, I don't need you shouting at me about it). Then when you start it obscures the display again with a big 'Play' symbol for several seconds. This is just at the moment you may need to see the map and your route ahead very clearly, maybe at a complex road junction. 6. Finally it's always extremely unclear whether you are actually 'navigating' the route you have set. I'm never sure and I've often found that the computer is not actually recording the trip data, presumably I've not pressed the right button. Because you don't know what's going on you may actually stop navigation when you mean to start it.

Decided to update my road bike Garmin when I purchased a new bike. Very impressed with the device, the screen is bigger and the font larger also so even if your vision isn't perfect you can still see the screen details well enough. Nice and easy to install and use and would definitely recomend.

I'm a dinosaur! I never wanted any of this electronic stuff distracting me from enjoying a ride. I'm now fully converted. Bought this for a trip to France so we could go off exploring on the bikes. I was able to pre plan routes through garmin connect and had no worries about getting lost. GPS is accurate. Very tough quality build. The maps look a little basic but very usable and probably for the best when you're looking down on the move. Couple of annoying niggles but I'm sure that is more from me needing to learn the settings more. I love how simple it is. I didn't want something that even told me the gas pressure in my bowels. Just a sat nav, for my bike. That's all I wanted,and that is what this is. Battery life is great, IF you aren't on full brightness. The attachment isn't that great, I bought an out front one off temu and it's rock solid. Overall it's brilliant and great value.

Works far better than the previous version, with vastly improved battery life. The hill climb feature is great, but not always appreciated!

Très bon gps il fonctionne super bien. Une fois maîtrisé ce qui n'est pas évident au départ, on peut le personnaliser a notre convenance, c'est un régal. Je recommande.

Tres bien, un peu compliqué au début a utiliser

Ein tolles Fahrradnavi. Das einlesen und bedienen lernen dauert etwas und führt zu Wutanfällen. Das ist aber auch einer Freundin passiert (beide Mitte 50). Auf hilfreife Videos auf youtube sollte man zurückgreifen. Das Geräet hat für mich schon wieder zuviele Funktionen (hatte vorher ein etrex 30). Ich brauche keine Verknüpfungen mit Smartphone, Herzschlag und Gigazeng. Das Routing funktioniert jedenfalls optimal und nur dafür brauche ich das Gerät

For commuting and touring, this is perfect. Additional maps are free to download if you need them. Use this with speed, cadence, heart rate and radar sensors (bought separately) and all work well. Easily swaps between bikes. Don't have any sensors on my tandem, but it reads speed from GPS so don't miss anything. No training tips, except for recovery period if you use a heart rate sensor, but if you are into hard core training you probably want one of Garmin's more expensive offerings.
