Any models available that can be set up and operated independently, and not tied to my phone?
Appreciate 👍👍
I prefer the Hammerhead Karoo 2 GPS computer. All routes, rides, maps, updates are transmitted directly to the unit over WiFi or cellular (cellular is available if put a SIM card directly in the unit).
Hammerhead does a great job of adding new features and updates the software monthly (or thereabouts). In fact, last fortnight, I spent 45 minutes talking with the product team; there are extremely accessible!! (Try getting a 45 minute chat with a Garmin or Wahoo team member).
So far, I have no complaints about the unit that they haven’t fixed. I like the control layout better on the Karoo 2 than on my ELEMNT Roam.
