  • I'm considering a cycle computer with the main purpose of navigation. LEL has prodded me into thinking about buying something, but it's something I've considered for a while.

    My main interest is navigation, but riding with a cycle computer for the first time it is quite nice to know how you're doing in a heads up display.

    I've got three things in mind:
    Garmin edge tour
    Garmin Etrex 30
    Wahoo Elemnt

    I have a dynamo on my main bike, but I also like the idea of being able to use the unit on other bikes and with the etrex30, even for hiking and off road.

    As the cheapest of the lot, and being able to navigate in all situations, I'm looking at an etrex30 as my first port of call. Can anyone suggest why this is a bad idea/what else I should consider.

  • I would recommend the Elemnt over a Garmin Edge, especially if navigation is the main priority.

    I've not used an etrex so can't comment, but they seem to have a reasonable rep.
