Speed sensors are also good for outside as well. GPS signals can be iffy which can impact your data.
That is true as well. I've read that GPS can show some spikey numbers. I notice the same when I turn on the Wahoo App and throw it in my jersey pocket. Speed based on GPS spikes constantly, so it'd be nice to have a sensor for a more consistent reading.

It was where I started. And yes, every time I try to Save a route, it tells me to buy a membership. The web based doesn't, but I didn't try that previously.

As per my OP, I really am just more interested in TbT for when I try a new route. Having full maps is a nice to have, but not one I likely need. I think the Garmin 130 Edge only has bread crumb, but it's not much cheaper than a Wahoo or Garmin with full maps. The more I read about Lezyne, the more it sounds like quality is lacking, even if the price is nice.

Bryton seems to have some options as well, but I haven't done a deep dive into those yet. And thanks for the sensor recommendation.
