The Details

Enabling you to ride like a local, the new Edge 530 supplies you with a peace of mind that lets you explore further than ever before, as well as being able to integrate with your favourite training apps. A marked improvement on the incredibly popular Edge models that have come before it, the new Edge 530 is a slimmer, more compact, and more durable unit, perfect for riders that demand adventure on every ride.

 

Dynamic performance monitoring and in-depth, crucial insights are both supplied with the new Edge 530, allowing you to dig down into the data required to improve ride to ride. What other GPS on the market enables you to see how a difference in heat and altitude affects your performance, or lets you see the grade and ascent remaining on a climb automatically?

 

But for those of us that aren't going up 10,000ft worth of climbs in 35°c heat every other day, this is just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the Edge 530's capabilities, and there are plenty of features to help improve our performance and riding experience day to day too. As well as a 13% larger display when compared to the Edge 520 and 820, the 530 also possesses 20 hours of run time as standard and double that on Battery Save Mode! Thanks to its improved processor, the Garmin Edge 530 now supplies riders with faster route calculation - double the speed in fact - as well as improved responsiveness.

 

Connectivity features have also vastly improved on the Edge 530. The 'Find My Edge' feature allows you to find your device should it come off in a crash, while the Edge's Bike Alarm feature will alert you to your bike - or Edge - being moved while you are away from it, perfect for coffee or restroom stops mid-ride.

 

There are also a whole host of marked improvements for Mountain Bikers with the new Edge 530. The brand new 'Forksight' feature will automatically have your Edge display upcoming forks in the trail when you've paused, giving you an at-a-glance context of where you are in the trail network, while the new MTB Dynamics provide all the data MTB riders need to track their jumps and descents.

 

  • Dynamic Performance Monitoring
  • Improved battery life and screen size vs 520
  • Ride-Specific Mapping

Our Verdict

Garmin are back once more with their latest GPS in the Edge series, the 530. And they've somehow raised the bar once again, both in terms of performance and accuracy.
