  1. Changes are always difficult. Even for tech-minded people like you (or I…)
    What I’m not sure is what you’ll be missing with this new screen? Just the watts value to check good connection with your PM?
    What could be great from Wahoo is to be able to modify the order of items on this page, as in other workout pages. Drag and drop the « sensors » block on the top and you’re done.

    NB: the rival is still alive. It gets an update after 10 months off. I’m shocked.

    1. yes, someone else pointed out the RIVAL update last week as well.

      I don’t think there’s any real downside with this change from Wahoo.
      the only one I could think of is that you will press go and only then see the metrics screen…if you’d wanted to change or check them (rare) then it would involve stoppoing the workout. but thats easy enough
      The zero watts value IS shown underneath the sensor, there’s a bluish sensor status part to the screen
      your idea of draggable screen elements is an excellent one.

      I guess I just don’t like the looks.

      1. Coming from wahoo, having this « ride read » screen a bit customizable as the workouts screen could feel… »natural ». Or not maybe. I still need to update my Roam v2
        Funny as those new looks, with separated boxes looks like the Karoo 2 update that started a shitstorm amongst users some months ago, with the same…separated bits.
        Anyway, wahoo is working hard on the SW side these days with the new Wahoo App. I taught it would replace both Wahoo app and elemnt one but it doesn’t seem to, at least for now.
