For anyone thinking "what a waste of money" Strava on my phone can do this, this isn't for you. It's for more serious bikers and great for interval training.

Typical use is Garmin head unit connects the di2 shifter hood buttons to control screen actions, Varia radar to show cars creeping up behind you, powermeter if you have one to show wattage, heartrate monitor strap to analyze post-ride performance. Also, it syncs bluetooth to your phone and detects crashes and will text your emergency contacts with coordinates. It works. I crashed one time and it gave me 30 secs to cancel before it SMS'd out.

Warning me when any of those devices are low battery is already worth the money alone, no more riding out 30 miles and suddenly powermeter goes dark. Having bought NOH from Garmin before, I have absolute confidence what you receive will look brand freaking new with all new accessories.

Unless you really want the more compact 830, the 1030 Plus for $299 is a much better deal.

If outright price is of concern, this is available refurbished (by Garmin!) at Bike Closet for $250 (+$10 shipping):

Note on "NOH"/Refurbished:
Quote :
What does NOH mean? NOH is a newly overhauled device brought to the same factory specifications as when it left the factory as new. NOH devices from Garmin are done in house by Garmin. You are effectively buying a brand new unit! NOH devices still carry a 1 year Garmin warranty. The same as a new device. NOH devices are like new and intended to function like new. NOH devices come with all the standard in box items a new device would have. The item may arrive in a plain box.

Garmin NOH refurbished items are like new. Fully under the same Garmin warranty!

I don't have all those sensors, but a head unit is indeed one of the first things I recommend people new to cycling for sport.

There is no way a phone is:
- fixed to your bike the way a HU is
- built to let you rifle through menus with ease using physical buttons, messing around on a touch screen for more than one action when you're cycling is very distracting
- built to take the amount of direct vibration a bike ride sometimes transfers into your cockpit
- etc.

Read an online article if you're on the fence.

I ride with a bunch of folks with Garmin headunits, and I own a 530. We all have our opinions, but the thing we agree on is that Garmin's after sales support is very good.

Most recently my 530's screen, after 3 years, and well out of warranty, started to get moisture under it. I called up Garmin, the only question they asked was "Where should we send the pre-paid return label?". A week later I had a new unit at no charge.

Is there a version that's for hiking? I find the entire Garmin selection overwhelming.

He didn't say anything about "need". People were cycling long before computers, or phones.

Separately, a phone is fine if your idea of biking is an occasional easy 20 mile cruise on a rail trail or some laps through your neighborhood for a half hour to get some physical activity in, or dusting off your bike in the shed from Dicks to take on vacation.

I used to be in the camp that used a phone and could not fathom paying over $1000 for a bicycle. Then I found that I really liked the sport and that upgrading equipment-bike computer included- is well worth it.

If you want a handheld device I can't help you (just don't know the lineup), but the epix/fenix line of watches is great for hiking if you don't mind the smaller (than a dedicated/handheld device) screen.
