Why We Like The Garmin Edge 540 Bike Computer
The Garmin Edge 540 Bike Computer is an advanced GPS cycling computer for serious cyclists that provides us with everything we need to be our best on the road, trails, gravel, or stationary trainer. Suggested daily workouts and personalized coaching adapt to our ongoing progress when we connect our compatible heart rate monitor or power meter, providing power targets, stamina insights, and current training load. These features are easy to use with reliable button controls, and the Garmin Connect app is even easier to pair and sync our data with our smartphone to share with training features such as Strava or TrainingPeaks.

A bit of a learning curve,but I love it.
Switched from Wahoo Bolt to the 540, the features are amazing on the 540. I have Garmin radar and front lights as well as a Garmin Fenix 7, all work perfectly together.

Easy to use - no training required
I was looking for something that would not require me become a "software engineer" or "expert user". This thing actually works when you 1) hit the ON button and 2) the START button. Yes you can do fancy connections with your phone and a bunch of other crap i don't need. But the main reason i like this thing is that you can hit ON and START and then go biking !

Upgraded to Edge 840
I loved the Edge 540 so much that I regretted not getting the 840 instead. I ended up upgrading to the 840 for its touchscreen, enhanced ease of use, and the ability to navigate to specific addresses and intersections on the fly.

It's amazing how much data these provide
It's truly amazing how much data this bike computer can provide you. Not only helpful on the trail, but also very helpful for ride analytics after you get back home. The 540 interface takes a little getting used to how to navigate for some, but it's very similar to the button configuration on Garmin's Instinct series of watches and since I've been using those for years this was pretty intuitive for me to figure out. If it's new to you, take a little time learning how to navigate and it will quickly become second nature. You don't need more than what this computer provides. It's a great value.

No Complaints
This is my first bike computer I’ve ever owned. I am certainly still learning how to operate the device but so far so good!

Issues
I purchased this item a couple of weeks ago due to the fact my Garmin 130 locked up in a loop (ride in progress, and will not back out), now, with the 540, very nice features....but...I have problems connecting with my Garmin power meter peddles, it wants to use the Trek Domane+ internal power meter, so again, I have to manually make sure before a ride it connects to peddles (the 130 did not do this), now also, it does NOT pick up or connect to the Garmin Vira tail light radar (again, it did with the 130)....I have spent hours trying to connect with no success, but still trying.

Do Not Buy a 540!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
This device is very hard to set up, the UI is unintuitive, and there was a major sw bug that kept me from having both US and International maps loaded. During a ride, the device kept 'saying' 'FULL STOP' and it took the Garmin support a while to figure out how to resolve. Garmin support was solid, I was able to chat with them a number of times but the number of times I needed to look something up or chat w support about how to do something was unacceptable.

Love the battery life of the Garmin 540!
Upgraded from a Garmin 520 and 820 Explore. Love the color display as well as the long lasting battery life! I've used the unit for several 40+ mile rides thus far and still have 50% battery life left. Something I couldn't do with my older units. I like the larger diplay and the climb profile features where it shows an upcoming climb and tracks where you are on the climb wrt percent-gradient.

Enjoying my new Edge 540
After using my Garmin Edge 520 Plus for the past 7 years it finally died. I replaced it with a new Edge 540 ane, wow, what a difference. It is so much easier to use. With the auto pause as well as advance warnings for turns, I am enjoying my purchase so much. I am now in the process of learning about all the things I can do with it courtesy of the informative Garmin videos.
