EXCELLENT BIKE COMPUTER
Pros: easy to operate, flexible, accurate
Cons: cost
I really appreciate this GPS enabled bike computer. It works very well - connects easily with the satellites, has a variety of features for monitoring my rides. Also, I am enjoying the features of "Garmin Connect" for reviewing and comparing my data. Attaches nicely to my handlebars.

GOTTA LOVE IT!
Pros: works well
Cons: nothing significant
I have to say I love this bike computer. I have used it for road riding, mountain biking, heart rate for spin class and cross country skiing. The GPS has great accuracy, it is small for a gps/ bike computer, I can leave the unit in my bag at spin class and it still collects heart rate. Adjustable screen provide as much info as you want, So all in all I think this is a great device.

After a lot of research I choose the 500. Everything I expected - works excellent on bike (and allows profiles for my different bikes). Also works very well in pocket while XC Skiing or hiking. Garmin Connect website works great. Super Easy to use

BEST CYCLING GPS
Pros: small, easy to read, portable from bike to bike
This is the best you can buy for cycling. Small and does everything you will need from being entry level to pro riding.Did not need the more expensive with maps since I don't see the point of needing directions on a bike unless you ride off road in unfamiliar places.
Recommend? YES

EXCELLENT PRODUCT -DOES IT VERY WELL
Pros: small size & info is readable great battery life
Cons: none-does what it says it will & does it very well
Just thought i'd share my thoughts on a good product. When you look at all the features it has, and the fact you can alter screen fields (to have 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 fields), it's great! i personally like the 5 fields as displayed in the pic on this website (1 large, 4 smaller fields). It's just the right size -as small as you can get while making sure the information is still easy to read -perfect balance in my opinion. LONG battery life too is a great bonus! Even with the light on and GPS on, it lasts many many hours, so i never have to worry about it ...just charge it when it gets near 20-30% and your good for many many more miles. It also stores info for up to 3 bikes with diff cadence sensors, etc, so it's very simple to switch between them. It comes with 2 bike mounts too, so everything you need in one package. (i've had this nearly a year now and it's great, fyi). (i usually bike twice a week for 8 months of the year).
