I can’t even blame an alcoholic stupor for inadvertently booking onto a cycling expedition across the Pyrenees. I just simply forgot that I don’t like going up hills that much and got starry-eyed and blinded by the thought of being the first person to cycle from the Atlantic to the Med across the Pyrenees. OK.…
I tend to use routes infrequently. When I create a new one it is easier for me to use Google Maps. But then I always forget how to EASILY get it on to my Wahoo Elemnt. I use ridewithgps which is very nicely featured although for simple tasks like this it is not intuitive…at least…
Some relatively longstanding bugs have been ironed out with Wahoo ELEMNT (reviewed here) and BOLT firmware. Specifically I know the Assioma and PowerTap problems were somewhat annoying for a notable section of users. Anyway; all should now be good: Details are (link to: WahooFitness for firmware versions WF09-1937 & WF42-1937) My workaround to ‘recover sensor…

In this Wahoo Elemnt Review I’ll pull together all my hands-on cycling time with the Elemnt over the last 4 months and try to be as succinct as possible in summarising what was a highly pleasant experience. Edit: Updated September 2018…LOTS & LOTS of usage Background Wahoo Fitness started selling the Wahoo Elemnt in Q1.2016…
Great device. Good price. Possibly best I’ve seen (Edit…no it’s not…try the Amazon link which clicks through for £177 on Black Friday despite the price shown) I use it…for me. Good for the more ‘serious’ cyclist type person ie if you want apps and weird stuff…don’t buy it. If you want to get better at…
My initial moan about the ELEMNT was that I couldn’t give a proper name to each of my paired sensors. WAHOO support also confirmed this. But you can do it. so now I’m happy. As the title might imply; if you fiddle around you may well just figure out how to do things. Fiddling with…
The Best Cycling Computer is looked at here across a range of types of cyclists and what they need their cycling computers for.
I’ve been spending quite a bit of time with Mr & Mrs ELEMNT recently. (BOLT + ELEMNT). They are a very pleasant couple and always fun to spend some time with. One of the issues with their still relatively short-lived marriage has been a lack of physical workouts (ahem). Specifically structured workouts. Yesterday’s ELEMNT app…
These are some unstructured thoughts on the first phase of my move from Garmin EDGE to all things WAHOO. Part of an ongoing series of musings (see menus above) on ‘The Great Garmin Migration‘. Well, something like that. I’ll write a more formal piece later. There are several striking things that stand out to me and…
A recent theme of things I wrote about was ‘My Ironman Journey’. Perhaps not the most novel of topics; but I enjoyed writing it and I hope I piqued someone’s interest along the way. The next theme up is: WAHOO – The Great Garmin Migration I’ll probably change the title to something more controversial or…
WAHOO’s ELEMNT MINI announced (finally). No big surprises here as the ELEMNT MINI was leaked several months ago in March 2017!!. First up THERE IS NO POWER SUPPORT OR GPS SUPPORT that I can see built in to the unit. So that firmly sets up where the ELEMNT MINI might lie in terms of target…
Published: March 2017 WAHOO’s new, smaller-sized, “ELEMNT BOLT” looks great. ELEMNT MINI announced (here) It comes in at pretty much the same size as Garmin’s Edge 520 and Edge 820. Whilst it hasn’t got the same, rich feature set as the 820 it nevertheless does have a great feature set. No doubt it hopes to capitalise…
Garmin Edge 820 is now released <here>. Garmin’s replacement to the Edge 810 will likely be creatively named the Edge 820 or ,despite the image above, it might be EVEN more creatiely named the Edge 530 but that’s a whole different story/leak 🙂 There WILL INEVITABLY be a replacement as we’ve said a…
Finalemnt, l’Elemnt de Wahoofitness est arrive —————————————————— Neither my supposedly ‘clevr’ French miss-spelling; nor an ignorance of the gender status of the ELEMNT; nor a Europhilic nod to my 3 French readers belie the fact that Wahoo’s ELEMNT bike computer is here. You can NOW buy one. It’s taken a while and looks to be worth the…
The WAHOO ELEMNT is shipping around about now as this image from @TeamHincapie shows. But what is special about the ELEMNT and why should we cyclists be excited? Is it more than just another cycling computer? http://pbs.twimg.com/media/CcjeYT-UsAEnrFR.jpg First off we should be excited that a company of WAHOO’s great reputation should be trying to further (RFLKT)…
Click the image and enter the competition. It’s been running for a couple of weeks so get your entry in now as there are only a few days left. The Wahoo Elemnt is a cycling super-computer of the highest order. Well it’s very good at any rate and from a great company. I get nothing…
Wahoo Fitness have just announced their latest innovative product – the WAHOO ELEMNT cycling computer. The press release is shown at the end. Q: Is it an interesting super-tool like the WAHOO FITNESS RFLKT+ or a mainstream product? Q: It’s coming in at a similar price level to the Edge 520 but why is it…
