Garmin Edge 500

garmin-edge-500
Garmin Edge 500 is the latest GPS device for cyclists.

It can track speed, distance, time, GPS coordinates, elevation, calories burned, climb and descent. For the last part – the climb and descent – Edge 500 actually uses a barometric altimeter which is a lot more accurate compared to GPS data alone. Of course the Garmin Edge 500 has wireless sync capabilities via the ANT+, and can also work with speed/cadence sensors. Provided you have a Garmin heart rate monitor, it can even give you very precise calorie consumption data.

Garmin Edge 500 will cost $250 by itself. If you decide to go for the heart rate monitor and speed/cadence sensor bundle expect to pay an extra $100.

We hope your workouts last less than 18 hours. That’s how long the battery will last.
