Hey Connor. Just to let you know I’ve seen a few of your videos and think they are really good and informative. Keep up the good work and plenty more vids😊
Thanks Ivor, I appreciate the comment! Glad you enjoy the videos!
@@connormcc any tips on best garmin watch for mtb? Think I’d like one with recovery times, sleep, health stats and maps but they are all quite expensive ?
@@connormcc by the way the gortin gravel grinder is in June. Date tbc. It was supposed to be April but storm Kathleen meant it had to be postponed
@@ivorhamilton5304 I'm actually looking into this myself at the moment, I currently just use an Apple Watch, but I would like a Garmin watch so that it links in with my head unit etc... I'm leaning towards the Venu3, but it is very expensive - also half tempted by a Whoop.... not 100% sure what I will do yet
@@ivorhamilton5304 Ahh excellent, good to know, I might be tight time wise for June but we'll see!
Along with the case I use the lanyard included in the package. To be honest, at first I thought they were a little corny but after seeing a bunch of World Tour riders using them I got over that pretty quick.
yea the little safety cord thingy? I loop it round my bars, means even if the computer comes out of the mount for some reason, it’s still attached and won’t hit the ground!
how do you connect the lanyard i don't see a place for it
@@edwardperkinson7929 there is a tiny little hole in the bottom at the back usually, that the thin lanyard string should loop through
Nice tips Connor. I don't have a power meter, but on road rides, my main screen is set to four main pieces of info.1. speed 2. cadence 3. heart rate 4. time of day. I don't need to show my ave speed, elevation, max speed, distance etc, etc. whilst I'm actually riding. I only need to have a look at this sort of info when I download. On head unit security, I use a security loop, should the unit detatch from it's mounting. I wrap it around the bars, and not the mounting bracket. Been told a couple of times, by other riders, that the mounting bracket came off the bike taking the head unit with it. They only looped the security cord around the mountaing bracket.
I'm just a bit of a data geek and like to see all that stuff while I'm riding :)
That's a great tip about attaching the loop to the bars rather than the mounting bracket! Great shout!
Great video. Curious: how do you mount the 1040 to your frame? Also, why does the new need to make the 1040 your primary training device?
Glad you enjoyed! I have a mount from Canyon that I use for the Garmin, it's just a standard quarter turn mount, but needs to be a special on to fit my Canyon, but depending on what bike you have there are loads of options...
Making the garmin the primary training device is only important if you also have a garmin watch
great tips mate!! enjoy it
also what power meter are you looking for gravel? was lookingat the Assioma PRO MX
Thanks! Yea I'm looking at the Assioma as well, as it is the Assioma Duo that I have on my road bike
@@connormcc best bang for the buck since no more powertap
