Do Wahoo computers ever go on sale?
Wife is taking the edge 530 and I’m looking at a new roam to replace it. Everything else seems to be on sale now, but not seeing anything from wahoo.

Ha......I was keeping an eye out for sales and scouring Ebay/OfferUp/Stevebay for close to month before I gave up and pulled trigger
I'll also add that I have been completely blown away with my Wahoo Bolt HIGHLY recommend it....... |

They do, perhaps twice per year? I bought my Elemnt Roam v2 for $50 off last year.

I recommend a Garmin Edge 1030+ or 1040. You won't need anything else. Why compromise?

By all means, use what you like. I never found anything that did well with the sun at my back. But it doesn't bother me much, as I always ride in a group and mostly focus on the road ahead and my group. I should mention that with the Garmin, one can crank up the brightness (manually) which largely solves the issue with the sun at our back. Regardless, in a group the Garmin doesn't get a lot of attention other than I do keep an eye on the Varia radar. If I ride alone and navigate, I just stop for a moment if necessary, to get a better or more detailed view of my navigation screen. Not a bit deal, as I am not being dropped.

If you happen to have an old one, call and ask about an upgrade path. I did and got 40% off a V2 Bolt

I'd think the Roam is due for an update?

I was told a new unit in the fall that will be landscape orientation. As for as I know Roam will remain...but you never know.

He said it was large. I wonder if it is meant to appeal to riding indoors or something?
Sounds dangerous. |

My first thought on this was to check REI since it's the annual sale, but dang the Wahoo's are ineligible for the 20% discount. REIFail.

Check out Colorado Cyclist. I think they have one at a pretty good discount.
