• Fair enough. My disadvantage in interpreting the review is that I've never tried a Garmin so don't know what I'm missing...

    I could try a 530 I guess

  • I love my Garmin 1030, it's a huge improvement over their old models and the battery life is awesome. I know Garmins often get a battering from folk but I think quite a lot is down to user error, I've had 3 over the last 7 years and they've all been pretty good to be fair.

  • 1030 screen redraw is slower than the 1000 which makes it fucking annoying when loading a new route while riding or while racing around the Netherlands with all the tiny bike path chopping and changing.
