Off to a bike shop tomorrow to see if they can check it out. If that fails it might be the full bike fit [emoji43]£££
Any update Phil?

Any recommendations for a decent budget over shoe for use with MTB cleat shoes (DHB ones from Wiggle) they all look like road shoe only fittings on the Wiggle site?
Have to say I don't have any issues with the current version of TTS 4 myself, TTS hasn't crashed in a long time and apart from loosing an FTP test run a couple of years ago (admittedly that didn't go down well at the time!) I don't think I've lost any session data. I guess the interface is a personal preference thing.c) God forbid you use their "own" software - the TTS software that they sell for the PC/Mac interface is horrendous. Bug infested, crash prone

We had a look at my cleat position and that seemed to be a bit far back. They also measured me to get a correct saddle height and that was about ½ inch too low. I'll see if these changes make any difference on my next ride out. Fingers crossed!
I saw somewhere it's on Italian amazon at £150, I'll see if I can find a linkGarmin Edge 810 is on lightning deal on Amazon for £200 inc HR sensor and cad nice sensor etc.
£50 better than anywhere else at the moment. Is this better than the 520 which is £220 for the same set up.

Thanks @Dalton. Good to know re the sensor.
Do you own either unit? If so, any thoughts on day to day use?
I think Bri @digitalfailure had his 810 hang when he was doing his Cavendish ride didn't he?
Isn't the 810 just an 800 with Bluetooth? Because my 800 has been faultless and i think still available for good prices.
What is the navigation like on the 520? Can you upload a route and follow it on screen? I really like the idea of full navigation but finding it hard to justify the price of the 1000.
Battery on the 800 lasts me 2-3 ridesTBH I don't know Neil. The battery is better and there's other functionality but not sure if the latter is covered by a firmware upgrade?
that's the firmware I'm on and haven't had an issue with it at allBit late back to the thread, my 810 has been flawless on the 4.3 firmware , starting to actually like it now it's set up how I want it. When I'm riding I can't be bothered with complications and the 810 can offer so much you can easily get lost in it.
Use a free site like ridewithgps (uses os , Google maps etc) to create a tcx route file and then copy it to the gamrin.Does anyone know if I can send a route from Google Maps on the iPhone to a Garmin? Just thinking that might be a workround for needing proper navigation.

This might be hair splitting, but Garmin Connect is a website. Of course, it is still software, but it works just fine, in my experience at least.I've found ridewithgps to be a bit nicer to work with, garmins software has been a bit patchy in the past for me.
Not sure if you could do it via Bluetooth?
If you have an android device there's always USB otg and a file manager app to transfer?
In theory, I've never tried it.
Sorry I meant their desktop connectivity app.This might be hair splitting, but Garmin Connect is a website. Of course, it is still software, but it works just fine, in my experience at least.
