This has all the features of the 200, with the addition of Bluetooth connectivity and the ability for very basic turn-by-turn directions.Battery life is adequate, but less than the Edge 200, which I could reliably use for two full days of about 100 km before having to charge it. Not sure that the Edge 130 can match that, even with the Bluetooth turned off and the screen illumination at its lowest level.The turn-by-turn directions worked well when I tested it with a course created from one of my activities.

There is an online utility that can do this.A quirk that I've noticed recently is that it periodically asks for the set-up data to be entered again when I turn it on.All in all, this serves my basic needs to capture speed, time on the road and the route that was travelling. It was a reasonable value at the time when I bought it. Since then MEC also offers the Edge 520, which, could be a better value. For a little more money it adds a map grid with the turn-by-turn directions instead of just a line showing that you are following the prescribed track (or not).

Initial thoughts: I couldn't be happier with the computer. Battery life was fine over a 15 mile ride (most of my rides are sub 50 miles so no anticipated concerns with battery life). The unit is great in direct sunlight-One of the biggest selling points for me was the monochrome screen (after trying to ride with a smartphone on my stem I knew this could be an issue).Other big selling point for me is the ease of configuring screens. With the Forerunner 625 I would spend up to an hour setting my data types and orientation-with this computer I was up and running with exactly what I wanted in the order I wanted it in under 10 min.Other notable surprises: GPS lock is really fast, the flow to use the computer on a ride is really well thought (e.g. press start and ... MoreInitial thoughts: I couldn't be happier with the computer.

My lights were automatically paired under the sensor menu and now automatically turn on/off. The included tether is a great idea and addresses the fear of "what happens if I press too hard and the computer falls off during a ride" - now it can't go anywhere.

Definite Bang for Your Buck!

This is the first Cycling Computer that I've ever owned, but thus far, I absolutely love it!For the price, which is quite low compared to other Garmin units that are capable of the same things as this unit is, this is quite the nifty device. It's Bluetooth and ANT+ capable, can sync with Garmin Connect (which can then sync with Strava), can read Heart Rate Monitors and Power Meters, and has a vast array of display fields.You can display up to 8 fields per "page" on the unit. Each of these fields can be customized to display a variety of different information such as time of day, ride time, ride distance, speed, average speed, elevation, elevation gained, elevation lost, heart rate, heart rate average, max heart rate percentage, etc.As mentioned, the device can ... MoreThis is the first Cycling Computer that I've ever owned, but thus far, I absolutely love it!For the price, which is quite low compared to other Garmin units that are capable of the same things as this unit is, this is quite the nifty device.

When you finish and save a ride, the unit will push the ride to Garmin Connect. If you've linked your Garmin Connect with Strava or other applications, it will then push the ride to them and upload them.I personally run 8 data fields on my main screen, displaying a variety of my chosen information. With this setting, the font is a little on the small side, but that's because the unit itself is on the smaller side. I'm okay with that though; it just makes it a little less likely to be damaged in a crash!All in all, for the money, I love this thing! If you're looking for an affordable Cycling Computer that can do just about everything, then you don't have to look any further than the Garmin Edge 130!

My 820 was dying and I needed something for my triathlons. With the 130 having the Extend Display and me planning on getting a new tri watch, this looked extremely promising. I got it in and saw that the entire unit was the same size as the display on the 820... I had concerns. But after my first ride, not a worry at all. In fact, quite perfect.My only issue is battery life. I did 110 mile route, with some long breaks. I paired it with HRM, Power and cadence sensors. The battery was nearly drained after a total of 8 hours and I have longer rides planned.The 530, and 830 have an optional battery pack, this little guy needs one too. That would make this the best bang for your buck unit EVER!Overall, I only fault it for battery life, but for the rider who stays ... MoreMy 820 was dying and I needed something for my triathlons.

I am truly amazed with this unit. However, I did send it back and getting the 830. This is only for the battery life with my planned longer rides.I would recommend this unit to any rider new or veteran.

Great cycling computer
21 April 2020

I’ve been riding intensely for 40+ years. I’ve been riding a Specialized Tarmac SL3/Ultegra the past 10 years. I’ve gone through a half dozen bike computers over the years. The 10 year old Polar computer on my Tarmac died a few weeks ago. I researched the major brands/models and settled on the Garmin 130 with speed and cadence sensors. I bought a CooSpo heart rate monitor which works great with the Garmin. I constantly monitor heart rate, cadence, speed and to a lesser degree elapsed time and distance. The Garmin 130 shows all 5 continuously. This is an outstanding cycling computer and meets my objectives perfectly. Here’s my take on the major areas.Installation. Extremely simple.

I researched the major brands/models and settled on the Garmin 130 with speed and cadence sensors. I bought a CooSpo heart rate monitor which works great with the Garmin. I constantly monitor heart rate, cadence, speed and to a lesser degree elapsed time and distance. The Garmin 130 shows all 5 continuously. This is an outstanding cycling computer and meets my objectives perfectly. Here’s my take on the major areas.Installation. Extremely simple. I’m amazed at the technology improvements. All my previous computers required magnets on the spokes and crank arm with large frame mounted pickup sensors for speed and cadence. With the Garmin you simply strap on a sensor to the crank arm for cadence and a sensor to the front or rear hub for speed. Use the rear hub if you occasionally ride in a trainer. This literally took 5 minutes. My system was operational in 30 min and synch’ed with the heart rate, cadence and speed speed sensors. The documentation is terrible. I used Youtube videos by Garmin and others.Configuration. I generally customize my displays. It was very easy to specify data fields, number and contents. I set up several to meet my needs. I love the 5 field display with 3 large single area fields at the top where i display heart rate, cadence and speed in that order. I have 2 smaller side by side displays at the bottom where I show time and distance. This is the perfect configuration for my requirements.Operation. The display is unbelievably easy to read. It’s incredible; I dare say perfect. It’s always clear and legible even in bright sunlight. I use medium brightness. Again, I like the configuration flexibility. I set the timer to auto stop/start when the bike is not moving. The start/stop button is intuitive to begin and end rides. The buttons are a bit hard to press. Again, the documentation should be clearer on the function of the 4 buttons. The Garmin Connect app on the iPhone is great. It syncs with the iphone activity/exercise app so I no longer need to use my iwatch to record rides. The displayed info on saved rides is very effective and insightful with capability to overlay heart rate, cadence and speed on time time graphs and maps.

I purchased the Edge 130 2 days ago. I have completed three rides with the edge. A 2-mile test ride, a 26-mile fun run, and a 25-mile created course using the course generator on Garmin Connect. The Edge 130 offers every feature I was shopping for. I wanted a reliable computer that displayed my time, speed, cadence, HR, basic GPS and mapping features, smart phone connectivity, and plays well with Strava. The Edge 130 has exceeded my expectations in these offerings and excels in its performance. My previous computers included the Lezyne Maco GPS and a Cateye Padrone Smart plus. I found both unreliable. The Lezyne required me to recalibrate sensors and repeat inputting tire sizes. And it would randomly revert or alter the settings resulting in inaccurate data.

The Cateye worked well most of the time. It would randomly stop working during a ride. I returned both and relied solely on my phone with Strava. The Edge 130, in contrast, is spot on out of the box, simple to use, and offers all the data and features I wanted and then some! I didn’t know I wanted such levels of customization as well as available APPS for download! I don’t know who I need to send the thank you card to for designing and building this gem but thanks a bunch for doing a great job!

Have had problems

I bought this unit January 2019. It was a new model at the time, which might explain why it has been such a lemon. The local bike shop guru explained that any new electronic device has problems. The roll out before the bugs are worked out. She same bike shop guru took more than a half hour trying to establish a Bluetooth connection with the Garmin and a new power meter. This connection problem persists but I can often get working if I restart both devices once or twice. Sometimes functions disappear altogether like when I lost GPS entirely, or when it would display speed, but not distance. Those required a hard reboot. Now I’m finding that the battery lasts 3-4 hours on a good day. Last June it lasted 9. All that being said, I’ve found most Garmin products to be ... MoreI bought this unit January 2019.

Now I’m finding that the battery lasts 3-4 hours on a good day. Last June it lasted 9. All that being said, I’ve found most Garmin products to be excellent.

Major Disappointment
4 November 2019

I've had this computer for almost two years now, so I think I've had enough experience with it to give it a decent review. Long story short: it doesn't perform as expected.The battery life is a complete fiction: with the computer in the most battery saving modes, I get about seven hours out of a full charge. I've done everything I can think of to address this, including consulting Garmin, without success.Other functions perform poorly. For example, the speed function (the most basic function of a bike computer) has became erratic. Garmin says this is normal, but it didn't used to have this problem. Engaging certain GPS modes (GLONASS or Galileo) may or may not help with this issue, but those modes consume more battery life which is short enough as it is.It ... MoreI've had this computer for almost two years now, so I think I've had enough experience with it to give it a decent review.

Despite multiple software updates, if anything the performance is getting worse.I very much regret buying this product.

Nice and compact but needlessly complex menus

A reliable and accurate basic cycle computer trying to be way too much. Good marks for rapid auto pausing and resuming, a highly visible mono display, sturdy mount, nice auto start, good communication with the wireless remote and heart monitor belt and a nice selection of display of functions. Not so fun is the overly ambitious networking functions more appropriate in a bigger fancier unit. These many options make viewing post ride data a stupid hassle. Saved rides then couldn’t find them etc.The MTB bundle includes besides some nice sturdy mounts a wireless remote you can mount next to the grip that allows limited switching of pages, starting, pausing. I didn’t find this useful and going to take it off. For races the data starts recording immediately anyway. ... MoreA reliable and accurate basic cycle computer trying to be way too much.

Using the remote to switch on the fly between the tiny map or profile seems silly.Not a fan of the Garmin Connect app. Also do you really need remote messaging and weather on the tiny display. The phone’s in your pocket anyway.
