David takes a closer look at Garmin's newest GPS computer, the Edge 130

The Garmin Edge 130 was launched this year and a lot of, but not all, features you get on higher end Edge computers, in a really dinky form-factor. It'll talk to any sensor using ANT+ and Bluetooth Smart, including your smartphone, and does basic navigation although there's no base map installed so you're just following a line. 

Garmin says, "It's the little things that make all the difference, which is why you're going to love Edge 130. This ruggedly compact but capable GPS cycling computer has everything you need to navigate your ride, monitor stats, stay connected with loved ones and much more. And it's all in a compact device that goes where you go and won't weigh you down.

 

David worked on the road.cc tech team from 2012-2020. Previously he was editor of Bikemagic.com and before that staff writer at RCUK. He's a seasoned cyclist of all disciplines, from road to mountain biking, touring to cyclo-cross, he only wishes he had time to ride them all. He's mildly competitive, though he'll never admit it, and is a frequent road racer but is too lazy to do really well. He currently resides in the Cotswolds, and you can now find him over on his own YouTube channel David Arthur - Just Ride Bikes
