bike computer recommendations

I Think they will both be pretty good, Only have the Edge 130 so cannot comment on the 530, but the spares and accessories for the Garmin have been pretty easily available.

I mostly went Garmin because I have the watch, so the whole ecosystem story comes into play. So if at all you intend on getting a Fitness watch of either a Garmin or Wahoo, go with that computer... Otherwise my vote is Garmin, for the different mounts of every flavor, screen protectors, Silicone cases and large repair network that some praise and some loathe.

May I add a question to the mix ....

 

 

Which of the Garmin models have the following alarms:

1. Heart rate, aidible beep when pushing to hard.

2. Drink/eat reminders ?

 

 

Practice rides I am fine with these .... getting caught up in the vibe of a race things tend to go sideways.  Sort of okay for a single day event, but must work on not pushing to hard for three day events.
