When you're in the woods on your bike, it's hard not to just take in the ride and the beautiful scenery nature has to offer. Sometimes the last thing you want is an electronic gizmo that might spoil the experience, but then, there are times when you are visiting a new location and want to get the lowdown on the riding spots or perhaps, analyze a ride later on. That's where the Edge 530 Bike Computer comes in handy. With its touchscreen operation, route planning and mapping, compatibility with various sensors, and connection with fellow riders and family at home, the 530 provides everything we want and need in a modern computer. With this particular model, it receives the Mountain Bike Bundle which adds the mountain bike mount, an Edge remote, and silicone case. Additionally, it comes loaded with Trailforks data, including trail difficulty ratings, so you can select an appropriate route and it can provide off-course recalculation assistance to quickly get you back to the trailhead if needed. Returning features include group messaging and tracking letting you communicate with the pack without having to pull out the phone from your back pocket. So if the group takes a fork in the trail or someone has a mechanical, if you're paired with GroupTrack, it's easy to regroup. It also receives assistance and compatibility with Varia rearview radar and lights (sold separately) so you can see and be seen, while a new bike alarm rounds out the list of cycling safety features.
