You're a wellspring of info. I spent a bit of time researching the i-bike vs those others. Seems the wireless technology is changing rather rapidly. I have been thinking about the Garmin 705, now I see that the i-bike and Garmin are compatible. Not sure why I would need both except for the mapping capabilities of the 705. As for using a power meter, have to decide whether I am serious about training and racing in the spring to merit getting one. For now I'll go with HR.
Looks like Trek is sending my new seat mast and rear wheel. Hopefully I'll get it back by the weekend.
