Game changer
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer

- N/A
Really glad I got this computer. The ability to laid routes in a strange town really allows the user to “ride like a local”. The climb screen is really useful on a new hill/climb. My only issue is I thought about getting the 840 with the touchscreen, but thought on a hot sweaty ride in midlands SC, I wouldn’t use the touchscreen. What is I didn’t think about was the set up screens and pre/post ride data review. A touch screen would be so much easier and more intuitive given we all use touchscreen phones. My next computer will be touchscreen.
