Why We Like The ELEMNT ROAM GPS Bike Computer

The ELEMNT ROAM GPS Bike Computer from Wahoo takes everything we loved about its BOLT model and gives it some significant updates making it the most powerful and intuitive computer from the brand to date. It's not only Wahoo's first color screen display, but it also added on-device navigation capabilities, as well as integration with Singletracks and MTB Project. These features not only make the ROAM easier to see and use, but it can also help you find routes and get you safely back on course or to a specific waypoint when you need to most.


Thankfully, Wahoo kept its excellent Element Companion App as the setup and interaction app for the new ROAM. It uses the simple interface of pairing your Apple or Android smartphone to customize settings, configure workout pages, upload routes, and link sensors. Additionally, it stores your ride history and automatically syncs workouts to your favorite training apps.


Once up and running, you'll immediately notice it's all new vibrant color screen. Its 2.7in screen is slightly larger than the 2.2in display of the BOLT and its durable Gorilla Glass lens makes viewing your data and following routes easier than ever. And to keep you on course with mapping and fitness, Quicklook LEDs provide an easy way to monitor power, heart rate, speed, turn-by-turn directions, and other notifications. The BOLT provided LEDs across the top of the computer and the ROAM adds to this with LEDs on the vertical axis as well. And while you're in a custom curated data page, its Perfect View Zoom, afforded by its side buttons, lets you zoom in and out for larger font or more fields.


Another area where Wahoo really shines is with its navigation. With the ROAM you can navigate to a saved location or a point on the map directly from the screen. It will find the most direct course and automatically get you rerouted back on course. And with its Singletracks and MTB Project integration, you'll get navigational help while on the trails too. You can get turn-by-turn directions via on-screen prompts and scrolling LEDs from uploaded routes or by using the Take Me Anywhere feature that generates cycling optimized routes with turn-by-turn cues. Other mapping features include Live Tracking that lets you locate friends or other ELEMNT users with a real-time location on your map screen, making meeting up easier, or the ability to share your location with friends and family by text or email. Lastly, its GPS capabilities and software integration let you tap into Strava Live Segments which alerts you before the segment begins, displays your progress status for the goal you set, and even gives you a unique Final Push when you are close to hitting a PR or taking a KOM.


Its Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and ANT+ connectivity allows for easy firmware updates and pairing with sensors that read power, heart rate, speed, cadence, and even muscle oxygen. If you have the sensor, it can display the data. It even reads your electronic drivetrain, displaying data from Shimano Di2, SRAM eTap, Campagnolo EPS, and even FSA's new WE system with details such as gear display and battery life. Lastly, the ROAM pairs with its KICKR Smart Trainers allowing you to train in four different modes: Route simulation, ERG, Level, or Passive allowing you to record your workout while controlled by another app.

Doesn’t work properly with giant Ant+ LEV ebikes

I bought this computer especially because it was claimed to be compatible with giant ebikes after 2020. Speed reports properly, but average speed and distance are 5.5 times more and power readings are 3 times less compared to wahoo fitness app or giant app connected to the same bike. Battery charging cycles are also inaccurate

Paucity of user info

Difficulty finding info on how to download GPS routes. Not much info online nor on the Wahoo site and the instruction manual is very basic

A big learning curve.

I lost signal while riding in a park. The trees obstructed the gps signal. It didn’t seem dense to me. I think when I first began using it, there was an audio alert to let me know when to turn. Now it’s just the light. If I’m not paying attention, I may miss the turn, which I already have. It does give you the red light and an audio alert that you’re off the route. Also, if suddenly the weather changes and you just want to plot the quickest way back, I’m not sure how to do that without the phone app. I need more play time on it. It’s not like going on google maps to let it know where you want to go, select bicycle option, and it tells you.

Battery life is good ;

Battery life is good ; easy to use power it on and when ready to begin the ride hit start, then get home and download it to your iPhone or iPad . Have not yet done much navigation that will be next.

meh…

Lots of trouble connecting to wifi. Takes forever to find gps signal. Works ok once connected but this thing is pretty temperamental. Opened a support ticket and I’m pretty sure I was talking to a robot. Quite frustrating.

I like the size

After two Wahoo BOLTS, I find the slightly larger ROAM screen surprisingly, much easier to read at a glance.
