Garmin Edge 540 - Syklus
Fordeler og ulemper
av våre spesialister
Garmin Edge 540 gir svært nøyaktig GPS, lang batteritid og omfattende treningsfunksjoner som ClimbPro og sanntids stamina. Knappestyringen er pålitelig, spesielt i vått vær eller med hansker. Synkronisering med apper er rask og stabil. Ulemper er manglende berøringsskjerm, begrenset lagringsplass og tidvis forvirrende betjening. Kart må lastes ned via desktop-app, noe som er mindre brukervennlig. For de som ønsker en robust og nøyaktig sykkelcomputer uten berøringsskjerm, er dette et godt valg.

I bought this because my Wahoo battery failed while riding the GDMBR. REI swapped out the Wahoo for this Garmin. I found the Garmin to be very difficult to use and hard to find support for. But, I preserved and with a lot of fiddling around with it, got it to work. Every time Garmin updated it, I would have to go back in and reset my settings. Lately it has started getting stuck in a weird loop so I connected it to Garmin express and found that almost all of the memory was taken by”other”. I tried resetting it to factory settings but the other remained. Customer service knew less than ChatGPT about how a Mac and how MacOS now doesn’t see the Garmin as a drive. Weeks of back and forth and Garmin’s rep (Bella) ghosted me. I’m out! No more Garmin products for me. Watch Market Place for my inReach.

Pretty sure I got a dud because if everyone writing these reviews got what I got they’d all be 1 star. It freezes literally everytime I turn it on and won’t unfreeze till you hold down the power button for a long time and then wait another several minutes and somehow loses 30% of its battery in the process. When I first started using it it wouldn’t stop screaming at me everytime I hit a jump (on a literal jump trail) to tell me I hit a jump, and the climb pro would yell at me everytime 12 seconds while climbing to tell me I was about to start a 16 foot climb. Overall just super annoying and I hate it.

Lett å håndtere når man lærer seg hvordan knappene fungerer og ikke trykket rundt i blinde. Bra gps funksjoner, kun rukket å bruke det på landevei sykling

When it works, it is great. When, for no reason, it changes my map view from a useful scale to showing the entire 2700 mile long route (I'm on the Divide) it is useless. That is only one of the strange things this divice does. I am unhappy with the unit several times per day and may get fed up and return it.

I purchased this to replace a Garmin edge 520 that I had for roughly 10 years. That computer served me well but the battery life was starting to wane and because I do a lot of long distance touring, I wanted a more robust battery life. So far, I’ve only had to charge this new computer once. The battery indicates it’s at 50% charge, despite the fact that I’ve probably ridden the more than 12 hours, which included a 75-mile training ride. So for me, the 540 is out, performing the promised specs, and I am very happy with it. This is also extremely feature packed, particularly as compared with the bike computer that I used for so long. I am probably using only a small amount of its capabilities as I only really care about the ability to load routes and navigate, and keep track of speed, distance, and direction. This does all of that, of course.
