I really hope they get convinced to put the bike profiles back.
It really made no sense for them to eliminate the bike profiles..
Contact Garmin and voice your opinion.. I contacted Garmin support and let them know that I want bike profiles back. The person I spoke with said she had several calls requesting the same..
Today I went on a 47 miles ride. No issues whatsoever and the Edge 1000 worked and performed great! I demolished one of my segments by 1 1/2 minuets (1:37 to be exact) on a 2 mile climb.. Guess I had been slacking off before.. Segments really are pretty awesome and they push you, which for me a least is great!
I did not get the 'locked screen' that I had on day one so I assume it's been resolved! I had no Bluetooth disconnects, the ride uploaded just fine after It ended and weather worked fine..
I've only done 3 rides with it, but I really do like it over the 810..
I am not sure who the moron at Garmin is that tested and approved the new 'longer' out front mount but he needs to be retrained! As you can see in the photos I posted it's not long enough.. Garmin really should have spent the extra 2 cents in plastics cost and extended the mount out further..
My OCD loves the Edge Remote = no more smudges / fingerprints on the screen
