Edge 540 Bundle, GPS Bike Computer
Product details
Web ID: 19213503A bit of a learning curve,but I love it.
Switched from Wahoo Bolt to the 540, the features are amazing on the 540. I have Garmin radar and front lights as well as a Garmin Fenix 7, all work perfectly together.

Easy to use - no training required
I was looking for something that would not require me become a "software engineer" or "expert user". This thing actually works when you 1) hit the ON button and 2) the START button. Yes you can do fancy connections with your phone and a bunch of other crap i don't need. But the main reason i like this thing is that you can hit ON and START and then go biking !

Upgraded to Edge 840
I loved the Edge 540 so much that I regretted not getting the 840 instead. I ended up upgrading to the 840 for its touchscreen, enhanced ease of use, and the ability to navigate to specific addresses and intersections on the fly.

It's amazing how much data these provide
It's truly amazing how much data this bike computer can provide you. Not only helpful on the trail, but also very helpful for ride analytics after you get back home. The 540 interface takes a little getting used to how to navigate for some, but it's very similar to the button configuration on Garmin's Instinct series of watches and since I've been using those for years this was pretty intuitive for me to figure out. If it's new to you, take a little time learning how to navigate and it will quickly become second nature. You don't need more than what this computer provides. It's a great value.

No Complaints
This is my first bike computer I’ve ever owned. I am certainly still learning how to operate the device but so far so good!

Issues
I purchased this item a couple of weeks ago due to the fact my Garmin 130 locked up in a loop (ride in progress, and will not back out), now, with the 540, very nice features....but...I have problems connecting with my Garmin power meter peddles, it wants to use the Trek Domane+ internal power meter, so again, I have to manually make sure before a ride it connects to peddles (the 130 did not do this), now also, it does NOT pick up or connect to the Garmin Vira tail light radar (again, it did with the 130)....I have spent hours trying to connect with no success, but still trying.

Love the battery life of the Garmin 540!
Upgraded from a Garmin 520 and 820 Explore. Love the color display as well as the long lasting battery life! I've used the unit for several 40+ mile rides thus far and still have 50% battery life left. Something I couldn't do with my older units. I like the larger diplay and the climb profile features where it shows an upcoming climb and tracks where you are on the climb wrt percent-gradient.
