Hi,
I never had a bike computer and I wanted one that would display the following

1- Speed
2- Cadence
3- Power
4- HR

I don’t need navigation

I wanted something simple.., rechargeable, small and light

Anyone that owns a Garmin 130 who could tell me if it would work for me?

Thanks and cheers from the Austrian alps

Roberto

Yes, it will work well.

I use it for similar, plus breadcrumb navigation. Nice and clear, plus customisable fields.

Thx, Some complaint about a very short battery life, will it hold at least 7 hours with HR, GPS, Cadence and power Meter connected?

For anyone interested...., I have used my 130 just to see my data (no gps), it is great, small, light, and battery life is long enough to complete the bike leg of an IM
