Just Garmin. Connect and it works

- Tilman, 26 August, 2025

Cool part. The fact that several cars or bikes are recognised and displayed is also very cool

Radar 'sees' everything, works very well.

- Kristof, 4 November, 2024

Assembly and pairing were done in 20 minutes. The thing works very well, all traffic approaching from behind is clearly indicated on the side of the image. From a person on an e-step to other cyclists, speedpedelecs, cars,.... even a train when I was riding next to the railway, everything was detected. Even when I was riding in the rain and there was a fair amount of sludge splashed on it.

Pros & Cons

Ample battery for 4h
Easy connection with Edge bike computer
Easy mounting
Is light yet feels sturdy
Radar works better than expected
Rather expensive

It's worth it.

- Arturo, 11 December, 2022

I had to stretch the rubber mount well because of the aero shape of the seat post. It is very reliable, although it gives some false positives at crossroads or in groups, which is to be expected. In windy conditions and head-on traffic, it is much appreciated.

Pros & Cons

Less bulky than the lighted model
Provides a lot of security.
Warns before you feel the car arriving
I don't know how long it will last
It is a bit expensive
The battery does not last long
