No problem with first few rides, but yesterday, 30 km into a ride, Garmin 1040 went into pause mode and stopped recording. After about 5 km, I stopped and turned the unit off. When I restarted it, locked into pause mode again. On the third restart, it started recording normally again. This never papered with my Edge 800 or 510. If it happens again, I’m returning it.

Has Everything You Need And Way More.
The Edge has everything you could ask for in a cycling computer. The map integration is seamless, the battery life is outstanding, and it comes packed with far more features than I expected. From navigation to performance tracking, it handles it all effortlessly. If you want a reliable, feature-rich companion for every ride, the Edge 1040 is absolutely worth it.

Nice Upgrade
I took a fall and broke the mounting tabs and screen on my 820. It was a good run for 5 years, so figured I'd just get the newer 850. Saw the deal on the 1040 and figured it might be worth it. Out of the box, the screen is brighter, way larger and the new operating system is much easier to work with. Way more features on it, love that it will show me my shifting on my new SRAM Rival AXS gravel set up as well. Haven't dug too much into all the info it generates, but the better GPS is noticeable on my wooded rides and the map will be great for some upcoming rides in the spring around Vermont.

Garmin Quality At A Great Price
I came from the 1030 Edge, which was somewhat problematic as far as connectivity and syncing activities and routes, but this one seems to be much better. Display appears to be a bit more visible in sunlight, and battery is better. It's easy to use, but I do wish the touchscreens were a little better in wet weather - totally usable, but I have to lock it when it's wet.
