Rating: - A Lot Of Stuff In One Bundle
I was a little shy about buying all of this stuff in one bundle because when just one thing goes out than your stuck short of stuff. I became brave enough when I was convinced that GARMIN was big enough to warrant the product good enough.
I was quite surprised when I seen all of the stats on the software page after downloading and even configured all of the graphs in any color or order that I wanted. Being a stat nut I was delighted and it only takes seconds to download from the unit to the computer via USB port.
The unit itself can be configured with your choice of ... Read More
Rating: - Garmin Edge 305GPS w/heart rate & cadence
Great product.
Almost too much information.
Very easy setup.
I highly recommend this product.
Rating: - Good idea - Poor reliability - terrible support
The concept behind this product is novel and could be a great training aid. Unfortunately, Garmin has not made a reliable product. And to make things worse they have terrible support. I train with a significant group of cyclists who, like me, want to use this tool and each one of them has had some sort of problem with this product. Most of the problems were recoverable - sometimes requiring several days before the unit could be used again since it can lock up and won't reset. This product is a great concept - too bad Garmin has such poor quality contol and support. I have sent requests to their ... Read More
Rating: - Fantastic Cycling Computer / GPS !!!
It's difficult for me to find the words to describe how much I love this thing. I'll put it this way: I initially hesitated at the cost - but after using the 305 for almost a year and having logged > 3000 miles on it - I am not hesitating upgrading and spending twice as much to get the 705 for the additional features it provides.
Hats off to the Garmin folks for creating such a great unit.
I highly recommend this GPS.
About me: I'm a casual rider. I ride about 400 miles per month and use the Garmin to track my rides (I visually load my rides onto MapMyRide ... Read More
Rating: - nice addition to the cycling computer world
I have a review on the forerunner 305, so this will be brief. the 305 for the bike does everything the fr 305 does except work with a foot pod.
the 305 for the bike is excellent at distance and HR measurements. you can take the unit off the bike and use it as a distance calculator for other activities, but you have to ensure the unit can see the sky at all time, which isn't easy unless it is strapped to your backpack (on the outside) however, since it is designed to be for the bike, I gave it 4 full stars for it.
the only thing really missing on this GPS unit is power meter ... Read More
