I haven't had a chance to use it outdoors yet but on the trainer it works great. It was a little touchy getting it set up, just getting the pick-ups in the right place and close enough.
Provides great feedback on cadence, speed, etc. I have no other products/experience with other biking computers but I couldn't imagine them being any easier than this. Great addition to anyone whom already has a Garmin compatible watch. Easy to use, install, and connect.
I'm happy. The item is fine and quality outstanding however shape is not "modernized" with the trends in aluminum-formed chain stays. So the first one I bought disappeared but the second time around I was able to secure it better and keep it going better.
Exactly what I wanted, on the delivery time I needed.Thanks. Amazon.Another good job.
The FR-305 is supposed to use the speed from the GSC 10 when it cannot get a lock on the GPS satellites. The GSC 10 uses two magnets to pick-up the speed (magnet on rear-wheel spoke) and cadence (magnet on the inside of the left crank). Thus it would be ideal of Garmin could somehow combine the readings from the GPS & GSC 10 to get a more accurate reading. When MTB'ing, which many times involves making many small turns, the GPS mileage reading tends to be a little short. The installation is pretty straight forward, although, the illustrations in the directions were not the most useful.The system has worked well so far. I have not been over the worst 'bumpy' areas yet on my MTB but have been through some rough terrain and nothing came loose.
