HRM200 and Edge 530 problem.

Hey, I have got a problem with my HRM200 and Edge 530. When I try to connect it, the led light is blinking 3times green, and on the Edge screen it is written "Connected", after a few seconds the led light starts blinking red.
Can someone tell me what happened and how to solve this problem?

EDIT: I have reset HRM200 and Edge.

Constant broken spokes on my rear wheel

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some help troubleshooting a recurring issue with my rear wheel. I keep snapping spokes, and there doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern—sometimes they break clean at the nipple, and other times they snap at the j-bend (hub side).

Here are the specs of the build:

  • Hub: Novatec NT-D462SB-SL
  • Rim: DT Swiss M462
  • Spokes/Nipples: Sapim (Standard J-bend and brass nipples)

The wheel was built about a year ago. I’m not doing anything crazy—just standard trail riding—but I’ve had to replace 4 spokes in the last few months.

A few things I’ve checked:

  1. The rim doesn't look dented or severely out of true (until a spoke snaps, obviously).
  2. The tension feels okay on the remaining spokes, but I don't have a tensiometer to verify if it's consistent.
  3. The chain hasn't dropped into the spokes recently, so there’s no obvious mechanical damage to the finish.

Since they are breaking at both ends, could this be an issue with uneven spoke tension, or perhaps the spoke line/anglebeing off for this specific rim/hub combo? Or did I just get a bad batch of spokes?

Has anyone else had issues with this Novatec hub or the DT Swiss M462 rim regarding spoke fatigue? Any advice on what to check next before I give up and take it to a professional for a full rebuild would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!
