I think it is normal to gravitate to one side if there are two dominant forces in a specific arena, no harm in this as long as one’s reasoning is rational (and respectful).

Fortunately the consequences of picking a cycling computer are somewhat limited compared to choosing a PC OS because your buy-in is limited and none of the players are strong enough to force their customers into a walled garden.

Having said that - this thread seems totally reasonable (and respectful) to me. Has it gone a bit off topic? Maybe. Probably. 🙂

The Wahoo CEO just made the claim that they have plans to implement support for radar. It’s not guaranteed, but seems to be more likely now.

Although this may seem like an aggressive anti-Wahoo rant; moreover, want to point out the fact not to expect great things/updates from Wahoo. As an extremely aggravated once-consumer of Wahoo, I think my hypothesis will come to fruition. Take this to the bank, Garmin did a great thing for this sport, and for its consumers, and its soon-“ownership” (if you will) of market share will reflect this

I don’t know anyone who has recently purchased a new Garmin head unit - but I can think of probably 10 people off the top of my head that have picked up an Elemnt variant in the last few months.

I have never had an issue with my 2018 Kickr and I use it almost daily. I only know there are issues with the units from this forum (full disclosure: I haven’t been on Facebook for about 2 years).

I am an ex-bolt user. Lots of problems with it. There is a google forums group dedicated to wahoo computers. Many problems. But that’s the same with any brand.

I also had kickr core problems and switched to cyclops. My biggest problem was with Wahoo’s CEO Chip doing the video with Dcrainmaker saying everything was fixed… Then almost a year later people are having the exact same problems. Wahoo would have to release something amazing for me to ever consider them again. Blue and pink bolts were not it and either is the roam by a long shot.
