Garmin Edge 1040 Solar GPS Bike Computer | 2022 Cycling GPS Computer with VO2 Max, Maps, & Multi-GNSS | Cycle Bundle with PlayBetter Tempered Glass Screen, Black Case & MTB Mounts

Item works great!

I bought 2 units (husband/wife). We both love our units. Easy to operate, easy to see, easy to track our data!

I am a long distance cyclist. I was able to link the Garmin Edge 1030 to my smart phone and download a course from ridewithgps. The Edge was easy to use for short rides and I was easily able to upload them to Strava. However, when I attempted a 400K ride this past Saturday with the external battery pack the unit ran out of power much earlier than expected (about 10 hours vs the expected 40 hours). Had to go into battery conserve mode, but unit eventually went dead. I suspect there could have been a problem tapping into the external battery. Both the Edge 1030 and external battery pack were fully charged prior to the 400K. Also, the unit can easily steer you in the wrong direction if the ride with gps course has overlapping sections. I found that out the hard way by going off course over the high bridge E of Ft Pierce FL.

This has become a staple in my cycling. I am amazed with how well this device functions and integrates with my etap shifting, varia radar, iPhone, speed and cadence sensors, etc.

Well, this is a fantastic device, in theory.

I love the editable data fields, multiple screens that can be edited, and the overall functionality. I am totally into glancing at progress and trip data on my rides, and this 1030 Plus has everything I could ask for. I have had no problem at all, and it has been very accurate over the 300+ miles Ive rode with it. Battery life is also great, and will last through 4-5 of my 25-30 mile rides easily.
