The Edge 1040 Solar is the larger of the 2 latest touch screen options from Garmin, so is better suited if you prefer to use one data screen or like a larger display.
Garmin Edge is still the number one choice, quite simply because of it's ability to receive
and record with more sensors than any
other on the market. This is partly down to the almost limitless 3rd party developer apps available through Garmin Connect IQ. This is also one of the latest Garmin
Edge's that have the new TrainingPeaks workout steps sync, which is a significant upgrade to the original, with the main differences including a graphic of the planned workout
steps from your CPT Cycling training plan and the ability to auto sync multiple future planned workouts instead of just one.
