Description: Garmin Edge 520 Plus
With Edge 520 Plus, you can train smarter and discover new routes. This cycling computer features advanced navigation and challenges built right in, not to mention a bright color screen, preloaded Strava Live Segments and the Garmin Cycle Map with turn-by-turn directions. So when you’re tackling mountain trails, Edge 520 Plus has exactly what you need.
Advanced Navigation with Garmin Cycle Map
Edge 520 Plus is preloaded with the Garmin Cycle Map and includes turn-by-turn navigation and navigation alerts that notify you of upcoming turns. While you ride, get information about elevation data and more. And, of course, it’s smart enough to guide you back to the route — or back to start — if you deviate from it or decide to head home early.
Messages From Rider to Rider
There’s no need to reach for the phone or worry about your fellow riders when they pull ahead or fall behind. Rider-to-rider messaging (with a compatible smartphone) lets you send prewritten notes from your Edge 520 Plus bike computer to theirs. Let your friends know if you’ll catch up in a few minutes or if they should go on without you. If you have a flat tire or need assistance, you can send a message to your fellow riders who are paired with GroupTrack — so they can find you.
Advanced Performance Monitoring
Edge 520 Plus is compatible with ANT+® technology sensors, including speed, cadence, and heart rate. With the addition of a heart rate strap (sold separately), you gain access to a variety of physiological data. See your cycling-specific VO2 max along with a recovery advisor, which analyzes your data and tells you how long you should wait before attempting another hard ride. This connected system of sensors, accessories, cycling computer and post-ride analysis with Garmin Connect™ online community allows you to keep track of how your body performs from ride to ride.
Customize Your Device
It’s easy to customize your Edge 520 Plus bike computer with the free apps, widgets, and data fields you want from Connect IQ™ store. Apps such as AccuWeather Minutecast let you know when the rain will stop so you can find time for a ride. A variety of configurable data fields show your favorite stats on a single, easy-to-read screen.
Ride with Confidence and Ease
Edge 520 Plus is compatible with Garmin Varia™ line of cycling awareness devices such as smart bike lights. Use LiveTrack to let your friends and family follow your real-time location, or use GroupTrack to keep tabs on up to 50 of your riding buddies — and let them keep tabs on you — if you get separated.
Trailforks App
With the Trailforks app, you can download trails to use offline when you go for a ride. Featuring trails from more than 80 countries, Trailforks maps include topographic information, points of interest, heatmaps, trail conditions, photos, videos and much more. Wherever you ride, you’ll have access to the best, most up-to-date information so you can plan your ride, discover new trails and elevate your riding experience. Now with Garmin Edgeintegrationyou’ll have access to all the best Trailforks courses on your handlebar.
Strava Live Segments Help You Push to Perform
Garmin and Strava are bringing you even more ways to test your limits. You’ll still get alerts for segment starts and finishes and be able to virtually compete against your own PR and Strava friends with a redesigned second-by-second comparison that shows how you measure up. But now you’ll also be able to see how your current effort compares to your PR, your most recent efforts or the personal bests of your friends. And finally, with the preloaded Strava Routes Connect IQ app, starred routes can now be wirelessly sent to your Edge bike computer so you can navigate and compete on your favorite Strava segments at the same time.
With the purchase of an Edge 520 Plus, you get a free 60-day trial of Strava Premium, so you can sample the best tools to push yourself.
