I need a new cycle GPS. Ive only had Gamins but I have been looking at the Wahoo Elemnt.
Wiggle has the Elemnt for £249.99 & the Garmin 820 for £235.00 so not a lot in it.
I've had 2 gps units over the years, both Garmins, and when they work the work well. I love the colour screen on my current 800, the GPS & turn by turn are excellent and the touch screen works well with gloves on. It's been trouble free until recently and now its starting to play up. I'm having trouble uploading routes to the unit, and yesterdays ride was logged on the unit but when i tried to download it onto Garmin connect all i was getting was a message saying invalid file so I've lost all the data and route for yesterdays ride.
Ive looked at the Elemnt, and I do like it. Only a black & white screen though, and the turn by turn isn't as good as the Garmin from what I've read in reviews. But simple to operate and all through your phone.
Over to the CycleChat collective, what would you do?
