Garmin Edge 200

[DefBref]

There are 1024KB in a MB so you are probably looking at storing more like 260 more rides.

Oops yeah getting my MegaBytes and MegaBits mixed up! Either way the OP can get more than 2 rides on it.

Used wolfram alpha and originally got this


Should have noticed that it used megabits!

Got my GE200 this morning. The time on it is 4.30pm which is obviously wrong. Can't find anywhere on the device to change it...

Anyone know?

Also, other users of it, how well is it at acquiring a position at starting? Sat in work and it won't acquire one, but don't know as thats because I'm inside.

It wont get a fix indoors, you need to take it ourdoors.

It also sets the time when it gets a fix.

Yup, he reviews all the Garmins in great detail.

I used it for the first time on the commute home. Uploaded it to Strava and got a top 2 or top 3 on every segment!

Something fishy there,, or more accurate than my Android!

 

[Hop3y]

I have to say though, the ease of upload to Strava is incredible.

Anyone know where the cheapest new edge 200 can be found. Best ive seen is Halfords 89.99 or Amazon at £82

 

[Hop3y]

Got mine of eBay for £59. Works perfectly.

One of the posters at the bottom reckons Asda has them for £69

I got mine at Asda for £69 but I think it was a promo for the Tour de France.

Mine locks on (outside) in about 20-25 seconds and I live amongst hills. Much faster than my eTrex which uses the Russian GLONASS system as well as GPS.
