Garmin Edge 800 targets cyclists with a penchant for accuracy and simplicity

Who says that GPS navigation systems are just meant for drivers only? The Garmin Edge 800 caters for cyclists who are on a mission and require accurate information on the dot in the most simple manner possible. Boasting a touchscreen display to keep up with the times, the Edge 800 will merge the most popular aspects of the industry-leading Edge 500 and Edge 705 while throwing in an updated intuitive touchscreen interface. Among the new mapping options include Garmin’s BaseCamp route planning and BirdsEye Satellite Imagery. The Edge 800 is smart enough to track all performance data, where you can view it over a 2.6” display while tracking speed, distance, time, GPS position, elevation, calories burned, climb and descent. Another advantage would be having no need for calibration, letting you use the Edge 800 on different bicycles in a jiffy. [Press Release]
