Yes, with your settings, either with an new create Route on Montana or an imported Basecamp route.
Could you try, if you can reproduce, when using a longer distance between two waypoints, let's say 100km?

I was able to test on a second Montana 700i, which also showed exactly the same issue.

We have duplicated this using multiple routes on multiple Garmin GPSr.

Glad to hear you could reproduce. What changed, so you were able to do so?

Still an issue with 13.10 (Okay, tbh, I have not expected to be fixed so soon)

Fixed with 14.80, I have on both menus the same km length with basecamp routes.

Not fully corrected. We are still seeing the wrong distance briefly displayed in the Info Box when opening a route via 'Where To?'

I can't confirm that. For me, via Main menu -> Routeplaner or Where To? -> Routeplaner, opening a BaseCamp route shows in box in top the same km length?

The incorrect length or distance is always displayed for us briefly while the device recalculates and correct the value, then the value is updated. You have to be quick to see this, last for a second or less.

Ah, you mean this. Yes, I can see that. But I don't think, that this is a bug. The first value is shown, when the embedded RPE data is not yet fully read. Once done, the route is shown with calculated RPE data?
