Segment Personal Best is not updating to best time?

The Personal Best for a segment is not updating. My Last Ride Time is faster but the Personal Best does not change. It seems to be based on the first time I ever completed the segment, which I had created myself based on that original ride. I tried to change in Menu > Training > Segments > (selected the segment) > Leaderboard. I can't scroll to Last Ride Time. Also, I could not find an applicable setting in the Segment Options (Auto Select Effort is enabled). Can it be updated?

In case you are talking about Garmin segments.

Those can be updated from the connect App: Connect -> Activities -> Cycling -> Segments -> Unstar /Star again. As far as I recall you have to do that for each segment you want to be up to date.
They will be updated once your edge connects to the app, there will be a brief showing: 'Segments updated'.
If you not do that the PR of the time the segment last synchronized remains present/The edge will not update the PR itself, despite it is aware of the change for some reason.

Strava segments should do that automatically.

Since I didn't find anything for the Edge 520 I will post it here in case anyone is trying to get this working.

The unstar/star segment method doesn't work with the Edge 520. In order to get the personal best time updated you need to send the segment to the device again. This can be done from the Connect app: Activities -> Cycling -> Segments -> Open the segment details -> Send to device.

The next time the device syncs, the segment will be downloaded again with the PB updated.

This is a very annoying and cumbersome process since the device already knows when a PB is achieved, and the PB should be automatically updated for the segment.
