Customer Review: Does what it’s supposed too
seems to hold securely as I have used it without problems on a snowmobile, which is a torture test for sure
Customer Review: Tried it twice, but its not worth it
I am road biker, never go off road. I purchased the mount and was happy at first since it was easy to attach and adjust. It went well for a few rides and then suddenly after a hard, but still normal, bump, the upper bracket just broke off, causing my GPS to slide violently over the tarmac. The plastic seems to be very cheap stuff, not at all rugged. Because of the lack of alternatives I purchased the mount again, this time I stabilized it with rubber and tape. Went off to the moutains, it went well for a few days and about 400KM but the on a downhill, a bump, and off my GPS went. Causing me almost to crash

Customer Review: The Garmin 605 Shines Off-Road.
I must start by saying that I don’t live in a big city, so I’m not exactly using the 605 as a commuting tool or for directions. I live in central Florida (a place with few elevation changes) and cycle cross country. The altitude has always been spot on, as have the speed readings, % grade, and positioning. The training function is a GREAT tool for those who intend to use it for its intended pupose - training. Every ride I go on is saved into the history with detailed information on each ride - elevation graphs, average speed, top speed, etc. I can race a blip on the GPS map of a stored trail to better my lap times. Marking all of the 16-35 mile off-road loops is so nice and neat to see exactly what the trail is shaped like and what to expect right ahead of you.
The only reason I can see how this can be bad in ANY way is if you plan on using this for primarily on-road purposes. If so, you’ll have to buy a programmed SD card with updated road maps. Otherwise, you can trust Garmin to uphold is reputation in accurate satellite positioning.
Customer Review: Buggy device, buggy software
I have used the Garmin Edge 605 for the past 9 months, I only used basic functionality like logging tracks, nothing fancy like navigation or riding courses. I used the device once or twice a week on my mountainbike. Some of the problems I encountered:

Customer Review: Worth it
The 705 is one of those devices that does many things very well. I was able to connect a PowerTap wheel in no time at all (It took me longer to navigate the Garmin menu than to have the 705 connect to the hub). One reason I really wanted the 705 is to have a device that can handle power, HR, cadence and use multiple intervals in the same workout. I found it very easy to track multiple workouts and also have different targets for each workout. For example during the 1st half of my ride my coach might have be working on cadence based drills then during the second half of my ride work on power or HR based drills. With the 705 I can track all of this in one workout, whereas in other computers I’d have to stop the workout and start another, having 2 different files, averages, etc.
