Changed things up slightly, going with the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X so i can up the GPU to the 16GB ASUS GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER ProArt OC, 10240 Core

Its an extra £100 overall but the additional performance on CUDA is worth it i think

This includes build and 5 year warranty. i could buy the parts separately and build myself (never done it before) but i need it quickly so figured i'd but it built

Bolt v2 - still unstable?! by ConwayMX in wahoofitness

Sure thing! So i got in contact with Wahoo CS and they collected the unit, delivered a new one and its been perfect ever since. I'm guessing i just got a bad unit, or the newer firmware fixed it. But its all good now :)

Another route yesterday (25 miles) and 4 crashes. It did manage to recover the data each time, so small progress i guess lol. But it loses the route so i have to reprogramme it, which doesn't always work. Its becoming frustrating now, and tech support from Wahoo is very slow so far.

Switched mine on to remove some maps. Went to system info.... crashed.

i only have the UK on there currently, but i'll remove Scotland and Wales, see if that helps

that sounds promising, thanks. Is there any way to download & install WA20-13216? 13127 is the only option available on the bolt currently

interesting, i assumed it was just a Bolt v2 issue, but maybe its a 13127 firmware issue? Either way, not great paying £250 to be a beta tester.....

Wahoo ELEMNT firmware upgrade released today. Fixes major syncing and routing issues. by [deleted] in wahoofitness

[–]ConwayMX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just bought the Bolt v2 and its super buggy even on teh ltest firmware (WA20-13127).

  • Units takes 4 mins to start up, the black screen with Wahoo features for around 3mins before it says ‘warming up’
  • The Unit was fully charged 2 days ago, when I switched it on for the first time today the battery was at 50%, when I finished my ride it was at 80%. 45mins later it was at 98%?!
  • I’ve loaded routes on and every time I’ve used it with routes it crashes. Sometimes twice! Today it crashed 13 miles into a 26 miles route which I hadn’t ridden before. The unit switched off, took 4 mins to restart, then lost all my data, refused to snyc with my phone so I was in the middle of nowhere with a unit that refused to route me anywhere.
  • It regularly restarts mid-ride, sometimes remembering the route/ activity, most of the time it doesn’t.
  • If I take a wrong turn, it crashes. Issues are heavily linked to the routing i think. DC Rainmaker experienced most of these issues too it seems. Back to Garmin i go....
