"awesome GPS unit that captures plenty of data for training and racing."abqtj

Ease of installation

Comes with 2 mounts, so you can use it on at least 2 different bikes right out of the box. I love the "rubber band" mounts for flexibility; it's nice being able to change your mind and not use up cable ties.

(4)

Ease of use

Being a touch screen, I was skeptical. But after reading reviews all over the web (thanks DCRainmaker!), it really can be used with full fingered gloves.

(5)

Quality of Construction

Seems very well made so far

(4)

Value

While these aren't cheap, you get a great GPS/Computer for the price, with expandability.

(5)

Appearance

Carbon fiber look...who doesn't like that?

(4)

Performance

Still learning all the screens. It does more than most people would ever need it to do.

Strengths

Excellent data gathering, plenty of online programs (either from Garmin or 3rd party), the new BirdsEye add on is great for loading satellite image maps, easy to use touch screen.

Weakness

Might take some tweaking to get the data fields set up the way you like.
