after 2 years off the bike due to illness and injury, it was interesting to see how much computers had progressed. The 1050 is expensive, BUT, if you like data, and also geeky little extras like the bell ( tap the screen twice, even with gloves on) this is the gadget for you. the hill warnings are annoying.. no one wants to know a hill is coming, or do you?? but it is a fun gadget and I think it adds to the ambience of the ride. I am a plodder, at almost 70, but I love the screen, the maps, the warnings.. just everything about it.
