Garmin Edge 530 Bike GPS

The Garmin Edge 530 is the greatly improved successor of the popular Garmin 520 cycling computer. The Edge 530 is a perfect training partner and navigator; it will guide you from A to B with clear directions. It offers the option of creating a route and uploading it through the Garmin Connect App or Garmin Basecamp, for example. The navigation with the Garmin Edge 530 cycling computer is done by turn-by-turn directions that prevent accidentally straying off-route. And in case you do miss a turn, it will guide you back to your route immediately. Due to the GPS, GLONASS and Galileo satellite connectivity you can receive clear satellite signals even in remote areas or in the mountains.

Responsiveness
The processor has been improved dramatically compared to the Garmin Edge 520. It calculates the route twice as fast as its predecessor, and is generally much faster to operate while the responsiveness of the buttons has also been improved. The 2,6" (6.6 cm) clear colour display is easy to read in sunny conditions.

Extended battery life and water resistance
The battery life of the Garmin Edge 530 has also been improved significantly and is now up to 20 hours. If you switch to Battery Save mode you can use it up to 40 hours. The Edge 530 has an IPX7 water rating, which means it is protected against the worst weather conditions. Are you going to ride in pouring rain for several hours? No problem. The Edge 530 keeps the water out while submerged up to 1 metre for 30 minutes.

Live Track and Strava Live Segments
The developers of the Garmin Edge 530 have equipped it with a great number of 'smart' functions. For a connection with your smartphone or the internet, the Garmin has Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. After connecting to your smartphone, you can use the Smart Notifications to be informed of any incoming calls or Emails during your ride. In addition, you can share your location with anyone at home through LiveTrack. Are you going for a long ride? Use Weather Alerts to know if a rain shower is coming your way. It is also possible to display Strava Live Segments. Are you an avid MTB rider? Then the Trailforks app and MTB Dynamics function are indispensable for your ride.
