Make the most of every ride with Edge® 800 — the first
touchscreen GPS bike computer. Providing navigation and performance
monitoring, Edge 800 is ideal for touring, commuting, competitive
cycling and mountain biking. It has a built-in basemap and tracks your
distance, speed, location and ascent/descent. Use it with an ANT+™ heart
rate monitor¹, speed/cadence sensor¹ or compatible power meter² for a
finely tuned analysis of your ride.
At Your Fingertips
We designed this display to be rugged enough to stand up to the
elements, yet sensitive enough to respond to the tap of your gloved
hand. Switch training pages or pan and zoom the map with just a tap. The
bright, sunlight-readable colour display is easy to view in all
lighting conditions. Just don’t let its good looks fool you — Edge 800
is waterproof to IPX7 standards and can withstand hard knocks and
scrapes it might endure in mountain biking environments.
The aerodynamic Edge 800 has a carbon fibre look with either blue or
white accents and attaches to the stem or handlebar of your bike with
the low-profile mount. A quarter-turn mount design holds unit securely
and lets you easily swap it between bikes using removable, reusable
bands.
Know Where To Go
Whether your bike is a means of transportation or escape, having maps
at your fingertips makes every journey easier and more fun. Edge 800
comes with an optional basemap that shows major roads and cities, plus
it’s compatible with our microSD™ cards packed with optional street or
TOPO Australia and New Zealand maps. Select a destination and Edge 800
provides turn-by-turn navigation prompts on screen.
Edge 800 can also guide you along routes recorded by other cyclists. Explore our Garmin Connect™
site and choose from millions of rides uploaded by other users. Any
activities you upload to your Edge 800 are stored as courses. You can
follow the course with navigation prompts or, for a little competition,
race it and try to beat previously set goals. You can also use Garmin’s
free BaseCamp™ software or other applications to create a route, view elevation changes and other data, and then upload to Edge.
Edge 800 records your every move with a high-sensitivity GPS receiver
that stays locked on, even under tree cover. The receiver features
HotFix® satellite prediction to calculate your position faster, plus it
has automatic time zone adjustment.
Data, Any Way You Want It
Edge 800 tracks a bunch of data from your ride and lets you customise
up to three training pages so you can see as much or as little data as
you want. The barometric altimeter provides extra-precise climb and
descent data and records temperature changes.
If you’re a performance cyclist, you can pair Edge 800 with a third-party ANT+ enabled power meter
to display your power output in watts as you ride. This valuable data
shows you how hard you're working, regardless of conditions affecting
your ride, so you can train smarter. The bundle version of the Edge 800
also come with a speed/cadence sensor and heart rate monitor.
