Garmin Edge 605 Reviewed

by Matthew on April 16, 2008


Garmin have launched the Edge 605 which is aimed at bike users. The 605 is a slightly cut down version of the Edge 705. The differences are that the 705 has a heart rate monitor, barometric altimeter and wireless data capabilities which allow you to share data with other Edge 705 users.

Garmin Edge 605 Features

A cool feature of the Garmin Edge 605 is the ability to record courses. What this feature allows you to do is record a ride and then compete against the same ride and compare times. If you do not want to pre record a course then you have the option of downloading pre determined courses from the Garmin website. While racing, you will see a virtual partner on screen travelling at the previous course time speeds. I can see this feature alone being something that will get many bike riders attention.
