Garmin Vector Delay

It looks like the elusive Garmin Vector power meter pedals stay elusive a little (or a lot) longer via a press release on Wednesday, providing no updated delivery date. This isn't the first time the pedals have been delayed and who knows if it'll be the last, although not providing a date likely resolves that issue.

Several LCBC riders have been looking forward to the summer release, but it looks like they'll have to put their pedal power dreams on hold and either stick with or turn to their Quarqs and PowerTaps for all their power measurement needs.

It's good that Garmin is taking the necessary time to refine the pedals before release to the public, but one can only wonder how long it'll take before our sweet dreams of knowing how imbalanced our legs are turn into reality. On the flip side, the Edge 500 was a nightmarish ordeal, where the first owners were more or less beta testers, so hopefully the delays indicate avoiding repeating the 500's history.
