Buy a Bryton Rider 50 instead. You know it makes sense.

@bromptonfb

what software's version are you using?

not the latest, the one before. i can't remember the version number, i'll have a look tomorrow.

 

[Rohloff_Brompton_Rider]

No you're right it's not true. I made it all up and the people on the Garmin site complaining of the problem simply dont exist and are figments of everyones imagination.

smart arse.

It's not believe me, I've had to cycle behind it before now.

A quick heads up.. just got my 500 from best buy for £80 (displayed as £100 then 20% discount for closing sale). Not worried about warranty as Garmin support have always been pretty good for me!

Have you got a link to that? All I can find is £150

Yep, shown on the website as £150 but sticker price in store is £99. I'm travelling right now but can put the receipt up at the end of the week for anyone interested...

I think what Paul is implying is: Picture or it did not happen!

Challenge accepted! I get back from Sweden on Friday so will try & do it then or Sat at the latest. For anyone else that's near a best buy, grab a picture. Got mine from the Hayes one and they had at least 5 left in the cabinet.

 

[alvintc]

As promised (was wrong though, it was 10% not 20!)

 

[Garz]

Bargain for sure!

I paid £180 some 15 months ago.

 

[PaulSecteur]

It wasnt so much a challenge... I didnt want to go over for one to find it wasnt the one I was thinking of.

Well done on snagging a great bargain!

Sorry the "challange accepted" is a line from How I met your mother (don't judge me on the shows I watch!).
I've just fitted the unit now & can confirm it comes with cadance/ HRM as well
