Sorry to drag this up again- I thought I’d post here first rather than start a new thread…
How well do the modern GPS units hold a signal? I have an HTC Desire on Orange which I thought would do the job of recording my rides but it never gets a GPS signal! Any problems with Garmin and the like?
I am looking for all the same features as the OP (Real time mapping/ navigation when exploring trails and getting lost, HR, cadence, elevation and all the normal bike computer functions) and seem to have only come up with the Garmin Edge 800. It seems decent but is rather pricey. Are there any other options to consider?
Also, are they robust and waterproof or do they benefit from a protective case?
Many thanks in advance, Dan
