Garmin Edge 130 Navigation

[@jairnunes1222]

The simplest, most direct and functional video I found on KZbin about the navigation function of the Garmin Edge 130. Thank you very much and my greetings from Brazil!!

[@pyreneesebike2955]

Thank you so much Jair!

[@swenak]

You have right, 2 hours of watching "reviews on table at home" and then I found this video :)

[@soniahalfner4661]

Merci! The single most useful video on these infernally obtuse devices.

Thank you so much Jair!

And the Garmin website is such a load of rubbish. Shame, because the computers are quite good.

[@呂昱璇-w5v]

Thanks for sharing this video. It's helpful for someone who is not that sure about the GPS navigation performance of this cute classic digital device.

Thank you so muh!

[@rwgleave]

At last a video that tells us how to use a Edge 130 Plus this video should be adopted by Garmin as it is the best I have found

Thank you so much! /Pär of Pyrenees Ebike

Thanks for this video! He convinced me to buy and dispelled my doubts about navigation. Perfect, thanks!

I’m from Brazil and I don’t found this content showing how courses works in portugueses. Thanks for it.

This one of the only video's of the navigation function, thank you so much!

Thanks from Brazil for this video. Very useful to evaluate the navigation capability. 👏👏🇧🇷

Very informative video, and I can watch it in 1.5 speed :)

Hi ; superb video ; best I’ve seen - however - what do use to ‘ load courses to the Garmin device?.

[@ankudowicz1]

Best video ✌️

[@davidcapelas]

Great video. Thanks. 🤘

[@rafaelmichels]

Hello. I have a garmin 130 plus but it doesn't show when I need to turn, like in your video. Is there a configuration? Thanks.

[@HASHEMIRAQ2]

Good video

[@hayabusa27]

I was on the fence buying this Garmin 130 for $200, instead I found a Wahoo Elemnt Bolt Version 1 for $179 at my local bike shop. I'm so glad I did not degrade myself to this 130, their map is horrible and the buttons are wack to operate. The Wahoo Bolt is amazing, the maps are clear, precise and they have street names on them! I had a Garmin 520 and the map file corrupted it drove me nuts there was no map during my ride. Wahoo is so easy to work with the buttons are on top not at the button, theres LED lights on top to show if you are reaching your max heart rate or power it was a more enjoyable experience and the sound it makes reminds me of the good old days tomagachis.

[@theforeigner6988]

Does it pause automatically?

[@christianaspas]

Yes

[@paulpotorac]

Were you able to connect the Garmin 130 to the ebike ? To see data from the bike ?

Unfortunately I couldn't. I think it needs a more modern ebike and a new GPS.

[@supinac17]

Can you please provide what file format did you use for GPS navigation ? I cant achieve that pop up with turn arrow appear during riding . I have it enabled in menu but no turn alerts appear. I tried GPX and also FIT which I copied into GARMIN > NEW FILES folder. Track is there and shown on the screen but while riding no pop up with arrow. HELP me please

[@pyreneesebike2955]

Sorry for not answering! Did you solve it? You have to upload your GPX file to the Garmin Connect page (connect.garmin.com) and then you create a "Course". After this you can sync with your GPS and it will show up as a possible route!

[@supinac17]

@@pyreneesebike2955 no, I returned Edge 130 back to shop and replaced with Edge 530.

[@francescof9567]

I have the same problem! It doesn't show the popup to turn. I can't understand why! I've uploaded the gpx from Garmin connect as indicated. Thanks for your help

[@widearchshark3981]

Thinking of getting the 130 Plus. Does anyone know: What happens when (say) the route gets diverted... Can it help me zoom out to see ways to get back on the route? Will it reconvene once I'm back on?

As it doesn't have maps you will only see, and get notified, that you are off route. You can follow your own track back. Once on-route again it will keep navigating.

[@widearchshark3981]

@ thank you

[@HASHEMIRAQ2]

Very useful

[@Lonesta1980]

Is there a elevation screen where u can see if u are ahead of an elevation?

[@pyreneesebike2955]

- - ARROWS SOLUTION - - Hi there! I have discover a solution for the problem when pop arrows don’t appear, I mean when the Garmin doesn’t give you the alert to turn before junctions (this system is called “turn-by-turn”, “giro a giro” in spanish). I just bought the Edge 130 plus and I had the same problem that I had readen from diferent users ans comments. Any or almost any arrow appeared during all the course. So following just the track-line was not very comfortable, and if you are in another display, you can’t see even that. I design routes in computer, and then send to phone and device. I realized that if I import a GPX file route from another App (Komoot in my case) to Garmin Connect, the line of the track is ok, more or less, but you lost the points “turn-to-turn” along the course. It was a big disappointment because I liked Komoot app and maps, it’s simple and clear, more that Garmin Connect. So now, I tried to design the same route directly just in Garmin Connect, from the beginning. Then, I send to the device and tried the route… and surprise! Now I had the arrows, the alert to turn before each junction. I had a lot of routes designed in Komoot, so I stand for a while and thought how could I do, because it would be a big work to design them again in Garmin Connect. So I tried and find another solution, a second one. In this case is not 100% perfect, because it has some light mistakes, but it could be ok if you don’t need perfection. I explain this method now. I took a route from komoot, and I went to Garmin Connect, like in the begining… but then, here, I created a pair of little changes, I moved some meters the start-point and the finish-point, and perhaps some point in the middle of the route, and save the file… and I send it to the device. Then I went to try with the bike, and surprise! Now it runs with arrows. I discovered little diferences or error but only in some point. And altitude data is diferent. So this could be a kind of medium solution, more or less, but not as perfect as create a route directly in Garmin Connect. I wish to had found and readen something like this before. At least, I’m happy to had discovered it and I hope to help many users with this now :) Have luck! Hugo, from Galicia (Spain).

[@pyreneesebike2955]

Wow, super! Muchas gracias!

[@hugolate]

@@pyreneesebike2955 Hi again, I continued investigating and testing... and I realized that if you export the GPX manually (in my case from Komoot), and then you import it in Garmin Connect... in stead of using auto-sinchro mode, so, this way, now arows appear, but I have a new problem now, altitude is not ok, and climb pro doesn't run... I tried to design routes directly in Garmin Connect, but the system is no so easy and doesn't create very well the tracks many times... I will continue trying...

[@mortadhaabdul565]

Nice video, but how does the navigation look like in the woods??

[@BergaEnduro]

Thank you! The navigation looks the same. It's very basic, it just follows you pre-loaded GPS-track.

@@BergaEnduro thanks. I ordered yesterday garmin edge 130 and can't wait to try it out and improve everything! I will discover a lot more, ride longer and ride to places without problem!

No, it's very basic with no map information.

[@SuperJerot]

Can you zoom in and out a bit on the map or is it fixed zoom?

[@pyreneesebike2955]

Good question - I haven't tried that! In general it zooms in our out depending on when the next turn is happening. This is controlled by the Garmin-software when you prepare the route.

[@SuperJerot]

@@pyreneesebike2955 Oh, well that even better. Thank you

[@eugeniomaniquis8871]

What do you call that digital device besides your garmin 130?

[@pyreneesebike2955]

Ah, that's simply the display for the ebike. Look at the Shimano e-bike system and you see that this is the standard display.

Someone having trouble navigating a route? My Edge 130 doesn't alert me when to turn. It shows that I'm on route and when I'm not on route.

Try to import the gpx file in garmin connect, then synchronize it with the garmin GPS.
