I have the Stealth 50+, but all that does is add a terribly inaccurate altimeter. This will do GPS, Speed, and connect to ANT+.

Also a great screen for riding in bright daylight.

I have the 500, friend has a 510. For me, the extra money was not worth it when I had the chance to try out his 510 before getting my computer. I did not like the touchscreen simply because its not the smoothest thing out there. Nowhere near a modern phone or tablet. I also didn't have need for the bluetooth or live tracking. I will say that the 510 is way more accurate and way faster to get signal when you turn it on. The thing is instant and I have to wait 30-60 seconds on my 500. Not a big deal to just remember to turn it on while putting on shoes or something.

As a side note, for a simpler device that still does most everything, the Cateye Stealth 50 is pretty nice and inexpensive. Know someone that was trying it out for their shop and seemed to like it and the fact that it costs less is a plug. Still has GPS and is ANT+ compatible but at $99 its worth looking at.

When I got my bike, I looked at the Garmin devices at the bike store (Bike Barn, Houston, TX) and they were pretty expensive.


I ended up with a Cateye Stealth 50 and later got the heart rate monitor and cadence/speed sensors.

Overall I've been pretty happy with it. The display is easy to read while riding, I don't run my phone battery down, uploads to Strava are easy.

This thing has been getting some great reviews and I am thinking of pulling the trigger on it. If anyone here has used it I would love a first hand account.
