Upgraded Edge and transferring bike and activity profiles

EBSCHAF
over 5 years ago

I have multiple bikes for multiple profiles, including road, mountain and gravel.  Each bike has some of it's own sensors including several with power and cadence/speed.  Do I really have to reset up all of my activity profiles and the bikes associated with them, along with each of the bike's relevant sensors individually?  Is there not some means of doing this through Garmin Express or anything?  Thanks.

    Set-up can only be done on the unit at the moment. The senors go into a pool of sensors and the Edge will look for which ones are awake when starting an activity so sensors are not associated with a profile. You can clone activity profiles, which might help if you profiles have common training pages.

    The newer Edge units do not have any concept of bike profiles so nothing to set-up there.

    Is there a way to transfer some of the stats like activity totals?  I will be switching from an Edge 800 to a 530.

    You can transfer personal records such as longest ride etc from Garmin Connect, but that is about it.

    Thanks for the reply.

    Ok well maybe it will arrive before I do too many rides.

    I use Strava to accumulate my mileage etc to port to other apps that track my maintenance.  It would have been nice to just swap the device on Garmin Connect and keep the same tracking.  

    BTW, is there some way with this new forum to get an alert when someone replies to my message?
