The cycle
computer you've all been waiting for is here.
Garmin, the leader in GPS devices, has created a
cycling computer that is based completely off
global satellite positioning. The Garmin Edge 500
doesn't have a base map, but it computes all
your normal cycling functions like speed,
distance, elevation, time elapsed, etc., all with
out a single sensor. It also has the ability to act
as a head unit for your power meter or add a
ANT+ compatible heart rate monitor to get the
most out of the 500. The Garmin Edge 500 is the
most precise GPS -based cycling computer on the
market.
