So here are my findings after my first ride with the new 1030.
Sensors connected:
- Edge Remote
- Vector 2 Powermeter
- Shimano Di2
- ANT+ speed sensor
- Garmin heart rate sensor
Findings:
1. Datafield "Gradient": Values are too low when climbing.
2. Datafield "GPS Accuracy": Datafield is frozen at 3 meters which is wrong (GPS and GLONASS enabled).
2. When following a course (made with Garmin Connect from a previous Edge 1000 activity) and TBT disabled, the virtual partner datafields for distance/time ahead/behind are showing wrong values.
3. Navigation datafield for estimated arrival time and remaining distance were showing wrong data.
4. FIT file has lots of errors for power phase data from a vector 2 powermeter. Needs to be filtered after import into Golden Cheetah or WKO4.
5. Connection to Edge Remote unstable.
6. Total climbed value is lower compared to the edge 1000
What I like:
1. The screen
2. Battery life
3. Touchscreen more responsive (compared to edge 1000)
4. New UI

Rolf
