Garmin Edge 1050 Cycle Computer
Vivid Colour Screen
Garmins new vivid colour touchscreen display allows you to see your maps, data screens and stats in stunning detail no matter what light conditions you face. And to make sure you never stop cycling, the Edge® 1050 offers up to 20 hours of battery life in the most demanding cases such as bikepacking and long-distance rides. Battery save mode will offer up to 60 hours of battery life.
Pay On The Go
When you are on the go, you can now make purchases with Garmin Pay contactless payments, meaning you don’t have to weigh your pockets down with a wallet or cash. The Edge® 1050 also includes a built-in speaker allowing you to hear clear workout and navigation prompts. You can alert pedestrians and other riders of your presence with a loud on-device bike bell whether you are on the road or cycle paths.
Avoid Road Hazards
Get alerts for road hazards such as sharp corners, fast descents and even potholes reported by fellow cyclists. You can now contribute your own edits and alerts for your rides to ensure the most safe and enjoyable ride possible. Riders can also create accurate courses on the device itself via the responsive touchscreen and check road surface type for a better ride experience.
Connect & Compete With Friends
Stay connected on group rides when you are connected via your compatible smartphone and Garmin Connect app, with in-ride messaging, live locations and incident detection alerts. You can also add fun competitions with friends with in-ride leaderboards for climbs and challenging road segments.
Very impressed so far but dissapointed with the bell, too quiet out on the trail. The may other new features make up for this.
