+1... zone is quick and easy. I don't care what my exact bpm is, but I care what percentage of my max I'm in or around.

That being said, I use 1 screen: speed, cadence (which is really useless for me at this point), HR Zone, distance, total ascent, grade, time, time of day. HR Zone is the only one I really look at, unless I'm flying downhill and want to see how fast I'm up to (fun factor) or if I'm suffering going up hill and want to confirm the grade is in fact really steep and I'm not just being a wussy
