Easy connection with my Edge 1000, both initial setup and during rides. When I am on my indoor trainer the Edge continues searching for the Varia (likely an Edge problem vs a Varia problem). Does not seem to be as many mounting options (third party) as there are,for the Edge. Still working on a rack mount to use on one of my bikes.
This is like riding with a friend behind you. I can focus more on the road ahead instead of turning and weaving to check for cars.
When I first saw some videos for this product, I thought it was a silly gimmick. I heard a few good things, so I bought one for me and one for my wife. We love them. They add an extra level of awareness while riding. I use it to enhance my safety.
i love this......dont even think about it terrific!!! worth every penny... I guess others have said that the battery might not last on the garmin or on light... i dont know... who cares... as if we are riding centuries every day or something.... highly doubt it!!
This light totally gives me more confidence and makes me feel safer. It does not do well on group rides. It sometimes will detect other riders and cannot detect cars from as far away when you are in a pace line. Also the battery life sucks. 5 hours is about all i get, which is barely long enough for a century.
Love it. The only time now while riding I will have to use my mirror or turn my head around is check on a fellow rider or when I am turning. The radar is real accurate. Great device.
