@@planeandsimplexplainedCycling Weekly is most likely talking about relatively cheap bicycle GPS. What we want is a absolute cheap GPS not a relatively cheap one but unfortunately there’s no such thing as a cheap bicycle GPS device with all the bells & whistles because if such thing exist then you’ll only have to pay under $20 for it but no most of the “cheap” ones goes for $150 and up. Relatively cheap bicycle GPS: $150 Absolutely cheap bicycle GPS: $20

The Garmin 130 plus is a great compact GPS, that has most of the functionality of a 530 which is not touch screen, and is only 33 g. As for mapping, it can bring you ack yo your starting point and you can program 30 routes into it, and has segments and climb features. Also can be used for MTN and Gravel metrics. I’ve seen the pros use this head unit, so it must not be that bad…

Everyone has different needs I guess. I race ironmans, so I want a small unit that displays my heart rate along with a limited number of other metrics, current speed and power perhaps. I'm not interested in maps, the route is marked. Currently I use an old garmin 25, the only problem with that is I need to swap screens to get all the metrics, I'll take a closer look at the Bryton I think.

I've ridden nearly 10000km with my Bryton 420 and I've never had any issues with UX or UI. It's just worked for me out of the box, and I had no difficulty whatsoever figuring it out. Battery life really is amazing. I will agree about the button placement, though, those backside buttons in particular are a bit of a pain and I can never remember which one does what. I still have my 420 but I've since upgraded to the 750 which is still inexpensive compared to the competition feature-for-feature.

One out of the over 100 rides I had a problem, in my opinion, the bryton 420 is the best budget cycling computer and it rarely has a problem with it so I suggest u guys to buy it.

I still love my old Garmin Edge 200. It's got gps, maps! and shows speeds, distance and time. And that's all I need. I did buy a Elemnt Bolt and not needing a PC to upload/download gpx-files is great, but I had to delete the onboard maps to get a proper breadcrumb trail like I was used to. And I actually miss the ability to upload gpx-files by connecting it to my laptop. I Also bought a Mio Cyclo for my g/f and tested it out myself, but I got a blue screen of death halfway during my ride.. damn you windows.. It also did bring me in the middle of nowhere and said I'd arrived.. Now I did say I wanted to be surprised, but that's not exactly what I had in mind. Luckily I could enter an address and ride back to the campsite. Btu still.. not a fan. (also It's kinda big and clunky and doesn't mount firmly, unless my edge 200 which is rock solid, even when going downhill offroad.

The Cateye Quick is exactly what you'd expect. The biggest drawback to it, sadly, was its fragility. I dropped it when I was unhooking my bike helmet from my backpack shoulder strap (when it was on the ground) and now the display is fooked. It dropped about 10cm. I could read some of the display so I decided to use it for a while longer. A month goes by and I drop it from about 20cm, again, while I was unlocking my bike. Now, the display is complete trash. Cateye does NOT make robust devices. I don't know what I should expect from bike computers (especially the cheap ones) but Cateye is a total let down. To get into the biking game, it seems like a sizable investment. Why buy a good bike computer if the bike itself is only $600. So buy a mid-range bike and a midrange computer (because I'm not a 12-year old novice). Basically, it's a never ending spiral upwards. Maybe I'll just get fat, eat Doritos and watch hair-curling erotica.

Maybe it’s different across the pond but in the US the polar m460 has not been available for several years. I got one of the last ones I guess. And in spite of what polar says the polar app will not update the m460 firmware. I got the unit mainly to connect the h10 heart rate monitor and am happy with it. I don’t need to be shown routes. I use Komoot to work that out ahead of time. While I do not, you can sync Komoot to the polar environment.

They also made it 3rd party incompatible (Strava was a nightmare, apps like MyFitnessPal wouldn’t work). I switched to Garmin products fénix, power meters, radars ect. I can’t see myself spending the $$$ all over again for the polar equivalent. The sole superior polar product was the Polar HR monitor. In 2-3 years I only had 1-2 HRs, where the damn Garmin break every other 3 months
