Did my first ride with this little thing the other day. unfortunately cut short due to a flat on a major hwy that I really shouldn't have been on.
anywho i'm digging it. very clear screen, intuitive to use, love it. ordered a new HRM to link and will be trying that this evening.
best part is my phone isn't running strava or map my ride while i'm on the road. the importance of which is if you do get a good ways out and have mechanical trouble your phone is much more likely to be ready to go.
so you get back from your ride and then can link it to the garmin app which then can link to strava.
from a design point of view I think garmin hit it perfect. great look, nice and compact, super easy to remove and switch to another bike or just take with you for security.
