    Has any one swapped from a Garmin to a Bolt, thinking of swapping Mr diz’s Garmin 500 to a Bolt?
    Any experiences or advice?

    I went from a Garmin 810 to an element bolt a couple of months ago and am very happy with the decision.

    Positives:
    – setup and screen management so much easier than garmin
    – zooming in and out of the data on the screen is better than changing pages
    – clearer screen than the edge 810 and the edge 500
    – auto upload works well
    – Looks cool
    – superb battery life
    Less good:
    – not compatible with garmin mounts – annoying if you have a few bikes
    – maps/navigation not as good as a garmin

    Wahoo: Navigation Nailed or Failed?

    not compatible with garmin mounts – annoying if you have a few bikes

    It takes literally 30 seconds to modify a (plastic) Garmin mount so that it works with both the Wahoo and the Garmin. There’s a video, I’ll see if I can find it…

    Aha

    I used a Stanley knife, one small cut on each tab and it was done.
