Sync / download third party routes to ELEMNT computers

You can create a route to sync to your ELEMNT using RideWithGPS, Komoot, Strava, or TrailForks. Routes can be synced to the computer either over WiFi or Bluetooth.

Note: If using an ELEMNT or BOLT v1, you will only get Turn by Turn notifications for routes created in RideWithGPS and Komoot. Strava and Trail Forks routing software does not produce cues for Turn by Turn.
