I'm here, but I'm here, isn't your love, your love, but I'm here, isn't your love, your love, but I'm here, isn't your love, your love, Welcome to a quick review on Cycling Computers. Alright, so most people go with the Garmin, I had a Garmin, didn't like it, actually I lost it. So we'll go through all of them. I've got my little Brighton, Brighton, and my Wahoo here, and while the Garmin's gone, unfortunately, so well, I can't really do anything with that, but I did use it, so I had the 520, this is the 530 Brighton, you know, Brighton, and this is the Wahoo Element Bolt. So Garmin 520, my thoughts on it, pretty average about true life, six hours with maps and it's struggling. It records stuff, probably the best recording out of any of them, I had an out-front mount, what perfect with the stages. Calibration was good, it had quite a nice beat to us, so when when you were like low on battery and up out, I mean, it would like flash up. Calibration for the rider asked you, maps were alright, but quite a hassle, because if you do that open street map thing, didn't really like that, didn't rate it at all, to be honest. Much prefer the other methods, apart from that, I mean, it's Garmin, like I don't really have any problems that everyone else seems to have, with like, it breaking the whole time, or like, I don't know, people seem to like crash or whatever, I mean, just thought the battery life wasn't great, I wasn't planning on replacing it, but I lost it, so I had to buy a new one. So I went with the Brighton, a German rider recommended it, and some other people had it, what do I think of the Brighton? Well, it's quite a good unit, like it's quite basic, we can turn it on, the firmware is pretty dodge on it. Like it does the job as an incredibly long battery life, which is pretty good. It has TSS, it has most of the training schools, it doesn't have things like Garmin how, which like, VOT max estimate and all that, but I don't really use that very much. So you can see that's the main page that we have on it, and if you scroll down the pages, it's got useful things, but it's not, it's not incredible. The main reason why I got my element, basically, I am going to return this at some point, it just literally doesn't connect with my power, I'm using it very well, it's all, even when I had it on the stem, it just still was quite rubbish, and I just feel like the firmware is not great. It was also really bad at recording just after you accelerate, and obviously when I live in London, I'm not in London at the moment, but it's like really important, that it catches all your accelerations, because always your power is completely gone, because then out of time you stop a traffic light, there's so many, so I didn't like it for that reason, and I think the mapping isn't great, because it basically just doesn't have maps, and so it just says like a breadcrumb thing, and like there's sort of little problems, if you want to calibrate your power meter halfway through, you just can't do it, you have to stop a ride, and that's just like a bit annoying, like it's not a deal breaking necessarily, but there's just slight nuances, where they just haven't really thought about it enough, to in order to work properly, but like it can record power and heart rate, and I feel like if you don't care that much about like precise power, obviously you care about power, but if you don't care about the microseconds where it might miss it, but like a crit having said that, it was good at some points, it sort of depended on those of different things, if it recorded good data, but if you just have heart rate, or your power meter has quite strong signal, because stages is quite weak, I definitely get it, especially between long rides, that's why I brought it here, because, and it's incredibly cheap, that's the other thing, it's 130, it's 130, I think, pounds, it's 130 pounds, which is quite cute, the garmin's like 250 or something, or 225, it's quite expensive, all right, so let me move on to my little element, bowl, so this is quite a view, quite a view unit, very aerogorl little thing, I can't use it because it doesn't connect with my power meter, because it's too far away all this, I don't even understand, anyway, but it works relatively well apart from that, it has like TSS and all the normal power train units, it doesn't have like the nice, garmin thing like, VO2 estimator, but it's maps are incredible, because you can literally download any country on the mobile app, the setup is really easy, because you literally just use the app, there's no fiddling around typing, so you can set up multiple pages, really quickly, which is nice, it also has a really good app integration, because you literally just click a place you want to go, and then it just redirects, you send it to the element, and you can just go, it also connects to Wi-Fi, both of these connect with Wi-Fi, which is very useful, because it means it connects directly to, directly to your Wi-Fi, and it's a lot faster up to, the other thing is this, Bluetooth app plays a rubbish on here, so I don't use that. If I didn't have Wi-Fi, just set up a mobile hotspot, and just do it from Wi-Fi, across the Brighton, it's way faster than Bluetooth. The VO2 also has like, garmin segments, which is the same with the grot, sorry, Strava segments, which is the same with the garmin, but I don't use theirs, if I'm going for a Strava segment, it has weird interface, on the screens, you can see here, basically this, this one does the pages, oh no, so the pages is this button here, and you scroll through the pages, but if you want to scroll through the pages, you can't use these buttons on the side here, these like zoom in, or zoom out, what it's showing, it's just really weird, I don't really understand that, why they thought that would be a good idea, but maybe people who'd like to have loads of data screens and then compress, by just providing them with different ones, it's got a very good battery life, better than the garmin 520, I charge this probably once or twice a week, and that's fine, I do 15, 20, 15 hour weeks, it's pretty chill, so what else to say about it, it just records power, it just works, I haven't really had any problems, they haven't been massive power spikes, sometimes if it's a bit dodgy recording, then it will like miss it, and then it will get the cadence, no, and then it will like miscalculate the cadence, and then think you did like 1800 watts, which is really annoying, but it doesn't really do that that much, which is very nice, the Brighton did do that quite a lot, so I decided to buy this, I got it for 180, but you can probably get it for like 180, 170, which is only like 20 or 30 pounds more than the Brighton, I'd say it's better than the Brighton, if you're like wanting it for races, definitely get it, it's a lot better than the Brighton for races, but obviously battery life isn't as good, I mean the error gains, I mean it's a bit embarrassing, if you're gonna buy it for that justification, but it just works, the app integration is really good, like really really good, there's only one thing that you can't set alarms on it, which is a bit annoying, because on the gone, you can say like every 10 minutes having alarm, but the thing is I feel like they could bring it in, so yeah, overall, I'm pretty happy with it or who, I'm sort of annoying, I lost my gone in the first place, I don't really want to replace it, but I'm now going through, I had pretty much all three of the main ones, I need to send this back actually, they said they would do it, but I just haven't been bothered, but it's sort of nice to have it, but I don't use it, so I need to get rid of it, I'll just sell it on eBay or something, because the thing is, they're the units don't decrease in price too much, so it's not too bad if you have multiple ones, the only ones that I'm trying to think, I haven't tried an SRM, but those are pretty useless, Pioneer, the giant Nios is pretty much the same as a Brighton, and the Polar, I don't know, I've never tried a Polar to be honest, what are your favourite GPS units? I mean, I think the WHO element bowl, that's my recommendation for the H everyone, I think it's the best one, it's pretty light, it just does the trick, very good app integration, so cheers for watching, hope you could gain something from this, hope you realise, but Garmin's good, but overpriced, well, who's the basically the best of both, and Brighton's great, if you can do long rides or you don't want to charge it, I recommend Steve Abraham, get one of the isn't replied yet, he's doing a world record challenge for a distance, and keeps him to charge his garments, just get a Brighton, then you wouldn't need to charge it, I just don't know any other standards, thinking maybe it's sponsored by Garmin, I don't know, but anyway, cheers for watching, and I'll see you in the next vid.
