Garmin: Watches, GPS Devices and Bike Navigators

Garmin, the best for tracking routes and monitoring progress

Garmin and GPS are two words that always go hand in hand. Since 1989, the Kansas City giant has been developing advanced systems for satellite navigation, adapting them to the most diverse fields. Its cycling-focused products use cutting-edge sensors to track the route and keep you on course. Built with a sustainable mindset, they are powered by one of the best smart platforms on the market. We are talking about Garmin Connect, the software that collects data and analyses it to monitor your cycling progress. Cycling computers and smartwatches are the flagship devices, but Garmin’s wide catalog also includes lights, cameras and smart pedals.

Cycling computers and electronic accessories for cycling

On road and off-road alike, Garmin is always by your side to suggest the right route. Mapping cycling computers, such as the Garmin Edge Explore 2, feature a bright color display that guides your rides, showing speed, distance, cadence and many other useful metrics in real time. Waterproof and durable, Garmin bike computers are also ultra-connected. In addition to communicating with your smartphone, they can connect to a heart rate monitor to track heart rate and calories burned. This is how complete bundles are created with the heart rate strap and mounts included, including the package featuring the Garmin Edge 530.

Smartwatches for cycling and sport

Alongside cycling computers, Garmin offers a rich family of smartwatches. Designed for all-round sport use, they also include cycling-specific functions. And thanks to the built-in heart rate sensor, they work even without a chest strap. If you are looking for a complete device with solid battery life, you cannot miss the excellent Garmin Vivoactive 4S. Comfortable and versatile, it strongly focuses on aesthetics, making it appealing even when you get off the bike. More basic and more affordable, Vivosmart 5 is the essence of simplicity. Although it does not have GPS, it relies on your smartphone’s GPS to enhance your ride at a low cost.

Lights, cameras and pedals for your safety on the bike

Garmin’s smart approach also takes shape in alternative forms. We are referring, for example, to the Varia line lights that connect to the cycling computer to operate independently, adjusting according to ambient light and cruising speed. Meanwhile, Varia cameras record every ride, using radar to keep you informed about approaching vehicles. Finally, Garmin Rally pedals analyze performance more deeply thanks to the integrated power sensor.
