Newbie question: So the Start/Stop button on my Garmin Edge 500 is knackered and I need something to replace it.
I've recorded well over 30,000 km with this so it's done it's job. I've used it loads with Strava/Connect?Bikeroutetoaster-made maps on it for 'breadcrumb' trail navigation which has been great actually ... and all the other usual uses (power on the turbo). I don't want or need anything flash (do I want a colour screen in front of me whilst I ride my bike?) but it needs to do everything the 500 did and (ideally) fit the mounts I have on all my bikes.
Should I replace it with the a new Garmin 520? Perhaps just a 25 or something else? What else is out there now?
I don't really feel much incentive to stay with Garmin. Connect is bullshit and all bugs are permanent despite relentless patching from Garmin.
Any thoughts appreciated.
