Garmin Edge 130 Plus GPS Cycle Computer

The Edge 130 Plus uses GPS, GLONASS and Galileo satellites, plus a built-in altimeter provides greater coverage and more accurate ride data. Before heading out, you can plan and download your route using the Course Creator in Garmin Connect, which uses Trendlineâ„¢ popularity routing to provide you with the best road, mountain or gravel routes. While riding, easy-to-read course prompts and a breadcrumb map let you see where you've been and where you're heading to. At the end of a ride, it will even give you directions back to your starting location.
To help you boost your performance, the Edge 130 Plus will provide you insights such as VO2 max, heart rate, heart rate zones and calories burned. It will also keep a track of detailed mountain biking metrics, including jump count, jump distance and hang time so you can relive every heart-racing run.

The Edge 130 Plus is using smart connectivity so you won’t have to reach for your phone, while out cycling. Text messages will appear on the device screen so cyclists can view them at a glance and keep on riding. A weather page will display current and forecasted conditions, as well as weather alerts. When paired with a compatible smartphone, the Edge 130 Plus automatically uploads rides to the Garmin Connect online fitness community and is customisable by downloading configurable data fields from the Connect IQ™ store. The Edge 130 Plus features up to 12 hours of battery life while using GPS and up to 10 hours when using two sensors.

Get ready for any ride, from remote gravel trails to epic climbs, with the Edge 1030 Plus. It has preloaded Garmin Cycle Maps with wider coverage than ever before across Europe, including turn-by-turn navigation and alerts that notify you of sharp curves ahead. Cyclists can create new rides and courses right on your device or use Trendline popularity routing to find most popular routes. If you use Strava or Komoot, the Edge 1030 Plus can create courses and seamlessly sync them to your device. While out riding, you can pause route guidance and off course notifications, if you choose to explore off the beaten path. Using the preloaded Trailforks app, you can also view trail details from more than 80 countries right on your device. When stopped mid-ride, Forksight mode automatically displays upcoming forks in the trail and shows you where you are within the trail network.

You can easily track your VO2 max, recovery time, training load, training focus and more to see how your body is responding to your efforts. It will even get daily workout suggestions based on your current training load and VO2 max. It can also notify you when it’s time to refuel or rehydrate. In addition to jump count, jump distance and hang time, other mountain bike features include Grit, which rates the difficulty of a ride using GPS, elevation and accelerometer data, and Flow, which measures how smoothly a cyclist descends a trail. You can ride in just moments, instead of wasting time configuring settings after powering the Edge 1030 Plus on for the first time. You will now get prepopulated custom ride profiles based on your previous settings, while new users will automatically receive the most popular set-ups from other users based on their sensors and ride types. Safety and smart features let cyclists stay connected while out for a ride. In addition to receiving smart notifications and automatically uploading rides to Garmin Connect, the Edge 1030 Plus can be paired with an inReach® device so users can view and reply to messages, share trip data and trigger interactive SOS alerts with an inReach subscription. Additional safety features include group messaging and tracking to let you stay in touch with the rest of the group even when you get separated from the group. The Edge 1030 Plus features up to 24 hours of battery life while using GPS, multiple paired sensors and connected features, including LiveTrack.
