Which Garmin do you use and why?

[lawrence281]

In the market for my first cycling computer and keen to use it with komoot, preferably for touring and long distance cycling.

So to have good mapping, Bluetooth to connect to my phone Strava etc too.
Which of the Garmin devices would suit my description?

I have an 810 but have never used the map function on it and have heard a few negative stories about it being a bit rubbish. I have bought a Wahoo Element Bolt for my touring bike as it integrates with Komoot nicely within the Wahoo app. I haven’t used it yet but will use it for my ride from Edinburgh to Bucks in September.

Also read bad things about it not showing road names and making it hard to know when to turn. Will look Into the wahoo

Also another question but on my recent cycle, I struggled to get my to yi 4k action cam to stay strapped to my helmet, ever used a helmet mount somewhere? Cant seem to find one that's specific to helmets lol

Thanks for the replies boys! Going for an eBay bolt based on reevidws and this thread. I reckon it'll be a good choice for my London to Amsterdam cycle
