Garmin Edge 520 Plus Cycling Computer
Disappointed with the product received. The box arrived wet and open. It appears this device was previously used. I tried calling and could not get a live person and used the automated return call feature and never received a call back.

Garmin Edge 520 Plus Cycling Computer
I had been debating on replacing my bicycle, I actually thought it was my forever bike. My head was turned by the newer model for one simple reason (key word, SIMPLE), I never used my lower front ring so I opted for a 1X style and I love it. I bought the bike and wanted a new computer as well so I bought a no frills model and had issues from day 1. I've had great luck with Garmin products and Nashbar had the best price with shipping included, five days later it arrived. Set up was easy and although it has more features than I'll ever use I made the right choice!! I said set up was easy, the best part was no wheel sensor needed, and there are NO placement issues either. I already have Garmin Express to update my other Garmin devices and the Connect app shows me more data than I ever thought possible.
Bottom line: Good people, Great prices, decent ship times (I opted for free) and a product that does everything I want and more!!
