My current one is an Oregon 300, this is a handheld, but you can buy a handlebar mount for it which cable ties on. It comes with a basic basemap which can be supplemented with more you can buy from Garmin, but you can also instal something like openmtbmap or velomap onto a microSD card and then use them to navigate. Then you can create routes here for road and use openmtbmap or Basecamp (Garmin) to create off-road routes. It is also possible to buy cadence and heart rate monitors for the more sophisticated garmin units and the Oregon can be used as a speedo and altimeter. It seems to work ok and so far I've not managed to get lost using mine. Hope this helps Cheers Chris
