Garmin has unveiled its latest performance GPS cycling computers, the Edge 530 and Edge 830 (£259.99 – £429.99). The pair have been designed to combine dynamic performance insights, cycling safety features, and advanced mapping capabilities into a lightweight design for use on all terrains. That means in-ride notifications telling you when to refuel or rehydrate, a cycle map that includes turn-by-turn navigation alerts, monthly training breakdowns, group messaging that lets users stay in touch when separated, and in-built incident detection that will automatically send a cyclist’s location to emergency contacts if they run into trouble. Honestly, there are too many features to reel off here, but one thing’s for sure: whether you’re an avid urban cyclist or off-road mountain biker, the new Edge range might just be the gadget of your dreams.

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
