Problems with Max-Speed on Edge 830 + Speed Sensor 2

Dear Garmin-Friends,

i got a refurbished Garmin 830 because in the past i got some big problems with the GPS connection. This problem are solved now

I'm using the Garmin 830 in combination with the Speed Sensor 2.

Yesterday i was on a mountain bike tour and i noticed that i got two speed-peaks which are not realistic.

On one point i know that was driving on a common street and on my activity there was a top speed of 68kmh.

This is not possible.

Do you also noticed such problems?

As i said the device is quite new (refurbished one).

Is it possible to reset the Speed Sensor anyhow?

Regards,

Tobias
