After years resisting getting a Garmin, I relented. Customizing screens is easy and, unlike some other bike computers, can be set to show a lot of data Ike slope me cadence without showing speed and becoming a slave to your computer. Also, easier to read than the Cateyes Id been using. Worth the extra expense.

Use it to log my bike rides. It help me to keep track of workouts.

Living in Nebraska & riding outdoors year-round, it was important to me that my new computer had real buttons. Due to size & features I wanted with a HR, speed, & cadence bundle, it came down to the 520 or the Wahoo Elemnt Bolt. Frankly, although the Bolt pushes it's aero look & advantages, the 520 was the better dealespecially considering having to buy the out-front mounts. So far the 520 has proven to live up to the reviewsno fuss, functional, reliable. I'm most pleased with it. Now to get add a power meter to the mix...

I hate to say that I have not had time to learn all it can do! But as a bike computer, it is awesome. Easy to read and customize. Can't wait to start using the navigation components!

Edge 520 is more straight forward bike computer than other touch screen based models. I find touch screen very difficult to use while riding. It was easy to setup with a road bike and a mountain bike. It switches between two bikes with no fuss. The computer recognizes two sets of speed and cadence sensors with no issues. I'm very happy with the choice.

Great upgrade from the 520 which only fault was battery life. Typical Garmin learning curve needed.

A great small computer. Enough features for me. Use the map feature weekly.

The 830 Plus is a great computer. It is fast, it has a a good screen size, and the screen interface is superb. I don't see a need for the larger 1030 Plus.

In traffic it is invaluable. I am use to using my helmet mirror but this easier and safer as it is hard to see the road and use the helmet mirror

The 830 is what I was hoping for when I previously got the 820. The touchscreen actually works and the faster processor is sooooo much better.

I replaced my old 500 with the 520 plus after trying the 820 out. The 520 is easy to setup and use. I mapec out an 8 day 400mile ride no glitches at all.
