Is there a way to get eMountain classified rides to show up as Mountain Bike in Garmin Connect? Now they seem to default as Cycling activities.

I have setup an eMTB Activity Profile and selected Default Ride Type to eMountain. When these rides are synced to Garmin Connect, they show up as Cycling rather than Mountain Bike. Is there a way to change this? Also, I suppose this does not help Garmin to classify routes correctly on the map etiher, as you would not ride these routes on a normal bike.

    You can edit your activities in Garmin Connect (online and in the app) to change your activity type. Any general or custom profile from an Edge will upload simply as Cycling, but this can be edited after the fact to be more specific.

    Are you saying I have to edit it every time? Why? If that is the case, what is the purpose of having this selection in the Edge 1030?

    Different activity profiles will allow you to alter settings like Data Fields, GPS Settings, Navigation Settings, Auto Lap or Auto Pause, etc. 

    You can have different setups for each activity type, but I do understand the frustration of needing to edit the activity type after the fact.

    I'd like to take it even further, and have it so when I pick "eMountain" on my Garmin 130, it will default to my eBike, and when I pick "Mountain" it default to my normal MTB.  Just seems like it would be an easy feature to add. Hope it happens some day!
