Changing Garmin 200 for Upgrade..

[Kevin Alexander]

If you buy a speed sensor yes.

Some packages will come with it but you wannt the GSC10.

Is that compatible with the 200?

Nope the 200 doesnt support Ant+

Looks like I will be saving for the 500 was hoping to get away with the cheaper option

so why change from the 200?

I suppose I would like the chance to add HR and Cadence at some point. So the bigger question is do I get a 500 or 510..
PS.. Its a bit like an itch and you have to scratch it with a 500 or 510 over the 200.

Go for the 510 due to the course and route bug on the 500.

The only extra feature of the 510 I believe is bluetooth and tbh I don't really wanting somebody tracking me but if its bug free I would certainly go for it; check out the Garmin Forums perhaps.

Loads of us bought the 200 last year for about £68 when Halfords did a deal, which we then got another 10% off with British Cycling, then Garmin offered £30 cash back. Was an offer you couldn't turn down.

I've got the 705 for the long distance stuff, and the 200 for commutes. If you want the cadence data, then get the 510 with the added wifi.

510 pack from wiggle was ok, though I think there may be some other deals out there

Bargain the cheapest I seen it this year was £68 from Handtec + VAT (£82), I think there was £3 delivery too.

Similarly I've an 800 for longer stuff and an 200 for the commute; if I'd known the latter didn't have a clock on the data page (more fool me ) I might have looked at a Bryton or Holux.

Don't any of you wear a watch or take a phone with you. What is this obsession with a clock?

I was was just looking at good deals and Handtec are doing Garmin 510 for £183.48 with wiggle at £208.00 .. wiggle said they would price match on there home page but not sure how that works..
Would add HR and cadence at crimbo time.

Some people wear long sleves and keep their eyes more on the road

Hi would this combo work for outdoor and turbo trainer indoor?

Bryton Rider 40E GPS
Bryton ANT+ Speed/Cadence Combo Sensor for Rider GPS

Bryton Rider 40E GPS

If the Bryton is ANT + enabled you should be able to add Ant+ sensors no problems (Cadence, HR, etc) but you might want to check before you buy
