Nobody?

Somebody is way into these...can't recall who. Maybe bobswire?

I have an older Super GPS that I like alot. Compared to a Garmin 810 I like the Lezyne better with the exception that it currently can't do maps. I haven't plugged into a computer in the last 6 months so an update may take care of that. Or may not. I'll probably get another Lezyne in the next 3-4 months to replace the 810.

I've since decided to (eventually) get a Garmin 820 as I want the mapping (I don't carry a smartphone when I ride). I'll probably pick one up next month.
Any comments on the Garmin Edge 820? (I've found a good review at: https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2016/07/...-edge-820.html) |
you should also consider the new wahoo bolt, seems like a nice 820 competitor
|
I have looked at the bolt in the past, but it I thought that it was more like a 520 competitor (I'll take another look though).
The wahoo does have the "aero advantage" — that is until you put a rider on the bike, then it looses that advantage ;) |

I'm on my 2nd 820 and am really growing tired of its issues. I can't recommend this unit at all. Kevin g |
Here's a review that may be of interest to those considering a Garmin 820. He talks about (and shows in a video) the problems with the touch screen and how it's very slow to respond -- if at all. I've experienced all of this many times. Also, just trying to get the unit to shut down can be more than a little frustrating as shown in the video. And speaking of shutting down -- my 820 has recently begun to shut down on its own in the middle of a ride for no reason whatsoever. I may have to reformat the unit and start from scratch to see if that helps.
Again, my 8 year old 705 is a superior unit in terms of accuracy and reliability. I never expected that to be the case when I decided to upgrade to what I thought would be a superior unit. Kevin g |

I have one of last year's computers (their year9 stuff), and we've done a good few of their new year10 stuff, which are moderate to major improvements over the year9 stuff which I already liked. The 10 stuff compared to the 9 has a few more features that solve the small gripes I have with the year nine stuff - namely an ability to change major settings while recording a ride. |
I used to work for Lezyne when we were developing the GPS units. I still have a couple prototypes. I am glad they are coming out with more connectivity and better backend help. When we were first making them, things were rough. It was almost $3mil to get them to market without advertising. I didn't want to see them fail and had serious concerns which I brought up at different times.
Glad things are working out for them. I still love my Lezyne products. |
