Check out StreetComplete (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.westnordost.streetcomplete)

It does more than just road surface type, and incorporates location-based OSM editing in a very user-friendly way!

Yea, I've used that, but it's a phone app. Riders need a one-touch solution on Garmin (or other bike computers, but Garmin dominates the market right now).

It also doesn't seem to let you edit anything more then a mile away from your physical location. I get that they want accuracy but it's preventing me from editing incorrect information to a place I have just been.

You can! Browse to the location, and then click menu button > "Download data here" and the questions will appear.

I already uninstalled it so can't confirm but I didn't see anything to that effect at the time. I could be wrong.

That said, I got Every Door and love it. It's got an icon right on the main screen to download whatever area you're looking at. The UI in general is more to my liking as a geek, whereas Street Complete sorta makes a game out of it (which is awesome if that's what you're after).
