We encourage our community to move important activities from Garmin Training Center to our growing online community Garmin Connect. One of these was the new Garmin Edge.

One of my favourites. Garmin have designed the Edge specifically for the cycle enthusiast who wants to monitor performance over time.

Not only does it record the normal GPS historical data, but it also has the capability to record heart rates and cadence as well. This is where Motion Based comes in as the data can be uploaded to the Motion Based system and then analysed in detail and comparisons made with past performances. The data can also be exported or shared with other users in the Motion Based community.

As there are a number of different disciplines in cycling we have decided to do a slightly different review for the Garmin Edge. Apart from my normal review we have taken the opinions of a number of different cycle users and seen what their views and usefulness of the Edge is to their cycling life.

The following specifications have been obtained from the Garmin website www. Lap History: Automatically records up to laps by day or week; stores approximately two years of data.

Measures time, distance, pace, altitude and calories burned Forerunner The Garmin Edge comes in 3 different configurations these are dependent on the accessories bundled with the GPS. The available accessories for the Edge are a heart rate monitor, and a cadence monitor. The Edge is sold with either one or the other or both. Strangely I took the option of both. I am of the opinion that there is no such thing as too much data. I prefer information overload Whichever bundle you choose the main GPS receiver comes with a USB cable, a mains power adapter, two mounting options, software CD and instruction booklet.

The cadence sensor and the heart rate monitor were individually packaged in their own boxes. This makes it easy for Garmin and the retailers to create the system bundles. Now I actually own a number of bikes but my main work horses are a Specialized Roubaix road bike and a Claud Butler hybrid for touring and rough road work.

As mentioned above the Edge came with 2 mounting options. Excellent for me as I can mount the GPS on the handlebars of both bikes. I had more problems deciding what to do with the cadence sensor. Well not really I use the Specialized Roubaix for my road cycling and training so that bike was obviously going to get the cadence sensor.

The heart monitor doesn't matter of course as it is not attached to either bikes, just to me. Installing the handlebar mount was quite simple. There are a number of possible ways to fix it. You can either place it on the handlebar or the stem. Either way you need to be careful to orient it correctly otherwise the GPS will be the wrong way up. Garmin even provide a wedge allowing a slight adjustment of the angle for the Edge.

Bear in mind that if you are looking at the GPS your attention is not on the road and any information you get from the GPS should be gleaned as quickly as possible for safety's sake. Once you are happy with the position the mount is fixed using a pair of cable ties. At first I thought this was a bit of a strange arrangement, but it is effective and works very well in practice.

Garmin do provide some additional ties, but a trip to your local auto parts store will replace and shortage you may have from moving the mount about. The cadence sensor actually has 3 components: The wireless main unit and 2 magnets. One of the magnets is attached to the pedal crankshaft this pulses the cadence, the other attaches to the spokes and provides speed data. You might question the speed data, but there will be times when the GPS signal is not available this allows the full telemetry to still be recorded.

Fitting the cadence sensor was a little more tricky as all three components need to be correctly aligned. I started by fitting the pedal crank magnet then the cadence sensor and finally the speed sensor.

This was quite simple on the Claud Butler as the frame geometry was very accommodating. On the Specialized Roubaix it was somewhat more difficult, but I managed it in the end.

The cadence unit is at a bit of an angle making it a long stretch for the speed magnet. This has a screw adjuster that allows the arm to be swiveled into position. The trick to installing the cadence sensor is to fit all the components loosely and then ensure that they all work before tightening the cable ties in the final position. Before trimming the excess tie I made sure that it was really tight by getting that last click using a pair of pliers.

Once you are happy with the position snip off the excess fastener and then you are ready to ride. So the hardware is now all installed on the bike.

This just leaves the heart rate monitor. This is of course fitted to your chest. Now we have the opportunity to present a gratuitous picture of a young female chest with the monitor in situ. Sorry guys that isn't going to happen I couldn't even find a body double so you will have to put up with my chest There are a couple of ways to fit the HRM, mainly with the sensors on your chest or on your back.

I have actually found that once your heart has been picked up the actual positioning is not too critical. In fact on occasion it has slipped down towards my waist and still picked up my heart rate. I found that whilst riding I got used to having the strap around me and most of the time I didn't realise it was there. It is reasonably comfortable, and doesn't slip on me anyway.

The only slight issue I found was with the buckle at the back shown on the right. This wasn't too much of a problem though. Once you have installed the Garmin Edge and the cadence sensor they need to be paired. As they communicate wirelessly with each other the Edge needs to connect to each sensor before it can receive input from it. The initial pairing needs to be done away from other wireless systems this allows the Edge to pick up the sensors it is supposed to be monitoring.

This is a little like black magic, but it seems to work quite easily. The cadence sensor has a small press contact which puts the sensor into pairing mode. The HRM just seemed to connect by itself.

Subsequent pairing is much faster as the Edge seems to remember which sensors it is paired with. If you have problems or need to change one of the sensors then you can use a setup feature to either turn the sensor off or to re-pair it.

With the system hardware all installed and connected together you are almost ready to get on your bike and start recording your trips. There are a few settings that need to be made on the Edge before it can provide accurate analysis of your training and trips.

Firstly you should check the Garmin website to see if there is a software update for the Edge Since I got my review sample there have been 2 updates.
