Long-term test: The best GPS
I’ve tested GPS units for years – sometimes running two, three and even four head units concurrently when also testing power meters. Yes, my friends just shake their heads in shame. But hopefully the takeaway for you is helpful: after 10,000+ miles a year and dozens of GPS units tested, here are the five units I recommend.

And the bar/stem, while adjustable for angle, still means you better be sure you are sure about your fit measurements before you buy.
