  • Interval workout data

    Has anyone ever found a way to re-arrange/change the data shown on a workout screen on the 830? In a road bike interval for instance I'm holding a specific power range for a specific amount of time. During that interval my power (the most important metric…

  • RE: TrainingPeaks/Edge 1040 Workout Recommendations

    The workout screen and data fields are wack.  Here's my list from a year ago.  I don't think anything has changed since:

    Workout data screen:

    The font size for the interval time and target are very small. I can usually see them fine but not in…

  • RE: Edge 840 workout data fields

    Yep.  Here's my take on the workout screen and fields.  Lot's of room for improvement.

    Totally agree.  Here's my summation of suckness:

    The font size for the interval time and target are very small. I can usually see them fine but not in poor lighting or rough surfaces.

  • RE: any insight on maybe a new 1040 or whatever release date?

    Reading the review by DCR i see that is a big disappoint.

    The only new feature is the solar, the rest, just minor details from 1030+.

    I don't think it is worth the upgrade.

    I don't know, it looks pretty good to me! Then again, I only own…

    To answer the 100% brightness question. I was out one time and had to rely on the map to get back to where I was staying. The sun was extremely bright (Spain) and I couldn’t see the map with the “auto” setting. I had to keep stopping, remove the sun-glasses…
