Ride longer and faster while staying connected is the mantra for Garmin's new Edge 1030 Bike Computer which includes a host of updates such as a larger, higher-resolution touchscreen display, longer battery life, ability to race Strava live segments, and trendline popularity routing for finding rides while in new areas. Rider-to-rider messaging lets you send prewritten notes from your Edge 1030 to other rider's Edge devices so you can let them know if you'll be catching up or if they should go on.

The included in-line flush mount keeps the device in-line with your bar, giving it a lower profile and the ability to add optional accessories such as the Garmin Charge power pack, for extra battery life, or any of the Varia line of cycling awareness smart devices which help to create a safer riding environment. Two of our favorite new features are the Strava Routes and TrainingPeaks Ciq Apps. The Strava integration automatically syncs starred routes to your 1030 so you can navigate and compete on your favorite segments in real time. With TrainingPeaks, you practically bring your coach on every ride since you can view your daily workout right on the 1030. The Edge 1030 supports gearing information directly from Shimano's Di2 drivetrains by communicating with Shimano's D-Fly Data Management function so gearing and battery level data is sent directly to the unit. The 1030 also works seamlessly with Bluetooth so while sport device paring and communication is still handled by ANT+ (i. e. speed and cadence sensors, HRMs, or power meters, etc.), Bluetooth technology still communicates with your Android or i0S smartphone.
