Customize live segments page

Is it possible to customize the fields showing up on the live segments page (this page: ) ?

I've disabled live segments because I couldn't see e.g. power and therefore had issues pacing. Switching back to the normal display every time a live segment starts was also kind of annoying.

    I would also like to know if this is possible. I think the live segment idea is cool, but not at the expense of having my power data visible. Much rather have that showing than the little map.
  • I don't think that it is possible - and you are quite right that it is very annoying.
    I also agree very strongly that if you have a PM then power is a very important feature on the display.

    In fact I would go so far as to say that it would be more useful for many people to see one's PB displayed in terms of power rather than speed for any segment and it is a shame that this option is not offered.

    I would like to see time ahead/behind displayed on the normal display along with options to display power compared with previous PB and also cadence compared with PB for that segment.

    For people who are using their Garmins for serious training, being able to compare power output in real time in that way would be hugely useful.

    I really have no need to see a very stylised schematic if what the countryside is looking like ahead.

    It should be very easy to do. All the data is there. All Garmin/Strava need to do is to give their customers the choice as to how they would like their ride displayed.

    Useless then!

    I back this 100%. Without data when fighting a segment, the segment feature is more or less useless to me! I have no use for the map. I was just about to pull the trigger on an Edge 1000 upgrade to replace my good o'le Edge 800, only because of the new segments feature. But thats now put on hold until this issue is sorted!

    So can you do that? Do you just press one of the arrows? I guess I could just disable the feature instead.
  • You can switch pages while on a segment using the up/down arrows, an Edge Remote or the buttons on the Di2 shifters if you have the Di2 integration.

    The Edge 1000, 810 and 510 allow you to change the data fields on the segment map page so I would expect it is only a matter of time before that option is available on the 520.

    Hope so. It's a cool feature, just needs a bit of refining. Quite liking the 520 otherwise.
