Beautiful new tech

Going from an Edge 520 this 1050 is a sleek beautiful piece of cycling kit. I love the ease of use and the touchscreen. As an aging cyclist the screen size is fabulous. Also love the ability to have water and feed alarms pop up on the screen. The data screens are so editable even on the fly during a ride (indoor only recommended). Price was worth it so far!!

Thank you for your feedback.

I like good product

I really love Garmin products, and the Edge 1050 is exceptionally well made. It's easy to read the screen while riding, and I'm also very pleased with its wide range of features.

Thank you for your feedback.

Welcome to the 21st century

The 1050 is a huge improvement over all the previous bike computers that I have used. It feels like you are using a cell phone, but with way better battery life, etc. The large screen is beautiful, the UI is intuitive, and it can do all you need and then some.

Thank you for your feedback.

Huge upgrade!

Coming from 830. My eyes are not what it used to be. It was getting a little difficult to see on the 830. I can now see much better on the large and bright screen of the 1050. UI is very responsive. The alert sounds are much more pleasant. No more beeps and chirps. I little pricy but it's a nice upgrade.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great features, a bit heavy. The 1040 is lighter but the color on the 1050 is nice!

I like Garmin because I ride four different bikes and am able to set up an individual profile for each bike. Swiping between pages allows me to have maps and information available easily. Also, Garmin offers tech support second to none.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good not great

Being an early adopter always has its drawbacks, be weary of fit issues on one piece bar and stem combos, as well as out front mounts. Device is great but new UI takes some getting used to. Touch sensitivity is good, display is amazing, and unit is fast and responsive. Good but not great.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great upgrade

I originally had the 1030 and was on the fence about upgrading but so glad I did. A lot better screen control and the bell is a nice feature with riding on bike/walking paths

Thank you for your feedback.

Rock solid - battery never goes down

I though with this update to a brighter screen the battery would not last, but I was surprised with the amount of power left after doing the same ride with a 1030 plus! No issues so far!

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Improvements over 1030

Better screen, battery life, and functionality. I love that my Ultegra shifters allow me to ring the 'bell' and move through the screens. So glad I upgraded.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good product

It works well, especially if you are interested in the routing. The bell is not very helpful as its not too loud.

Thank you for your feedback.

A few added features that are worthwhile to me.

I use this on every ride. There are things that are mildly annoying but that's a software issue. Maybe Garmin will work on improving the software. Otherwise, I like this. It's not a night & day improvement over the 1030Plus I used previously, but again, I do like the new features like the music screen.

Thank you for your feedback.

It talks!

This is an upgrade from a 1030. I like that the 1050 gives audio prompts. Disappointed that the user manual isn't much updated from the 1030's.

Thank you for your feedback.
