With Edge 520 Plus, you can train smarter and discover new routes. This
cycling computer features advanced navigation and challenges built
right in, not to mention a bright colour screen, preloaded Strava Live
Segments and the Garmin Cycle Map with turn-by-turn directions. Whether
you’re exploring new routes or pushing your limits at race time, Edge
520 Plus has exactly what you need.
Advanced Navigation with Garmin Cycle
Map
Edge 520 Plus is preloaded with the Garmin Cycle Map and includes
turn-by-turn navigation and navigation alerts that notify you of
upcoming turns. And, of course, it’s smart enough to guide you back to
the route - or back to the start - if you deviate from it or decide to
head home early.
Messages from Rider to Rider
There’s no need to reach for the phone or worry about your fellow
riders when they pull ahead or fall behind. Rider-to-rider messaging
lets you send prewritten notes from your Edge 520 Plus bike computer to
theirs1. Let your friends know if you’ll catch up in a few minutes or
if they should go on without you. If you have a flat tyre or need
assistance, you can send a message to your fellow riders who are paired
with GroupTrack - so they can find you.
Advanced Performance Monitoring
Edge 520 Plus is compatible with ANT+® technology sensors, including
speed, cadence and heart rate. For even more performance data, 520 Plus
is also compatible with ANT+ power meters, including Vector 3 (sold
separately). Our unique pedal-based power meter measures total power,
left/right balance and cadence. You can even record cycling dynamics to
get a better look at your form, including where your power is being
applied on the pedal and throughout the pedal stroke.
With the addition of a heart rate strap (sold separately), you gain
access to a variety of physiological data. See your cycling-specific
VO2 max along with a recovery advisor, which analyses your data and
tells you how long you should wait before attempting another hard ride.
This connected system of sensors, accessories, cycling computer and
post-ride analysis with our Garmin Connect™ online community allows you
to keep track of how your body performs from ride to ride.
Customise Your Device
It’s easy to customise your Edge 520 Plus bike computer with the free
apps, widgets and data fields you want from our Connect IQ™ store. Apps
such as AccuWeather MinuteCast let you know when the rain will stop so
you can find time for a ride. Get immediate feedback with the MPA and
Power app from Xert so you can see if you’re exceeding your maximum
power available. A variety of configurable data fields show your
favourite stats on a single, easy-to-read screen.
Ride with Confidence and Ease
Edge 520 Plus is compatible with our Varia™ line of cycling awareness
devices, including rear-view radar and smart bike lights. By pairing
these devices with your Edge, you can get alerts - right on your Edge
display - to approaching cars and help drivers see you. Use LiveTrack
to let your friends and family follow your real-time location, or use
GroupTrack2 to keep tabs on your riding buddies - and let them keep
tabs on you - if you get separated. Edge 520 Plus even features
built-in Incident Detection, which automatically sends your location to
an emergency contact if you run into difficulty.
Strave Live Segments Help you Push to
Perform
Garmin and Strava are bringing you even more ways to test your limits.
You’ll still get alerts for segment starts and finishes and be able to
virtually compete against your own PR and Strava friends with a
redesigned second-by-second comparison that shows how you measure up.
But now you’ll also be able to see how your current effort compares to
your PR, your most recent efforts or the personal bests of your
friends. And finally, with the preloaded Strava Routes Connect IQ app,
starred routes can now be wirelessly sent to your Edge bike computer so
you can navigate and compete on your favourite Strava segments at the
same time.
Personalised Race Day Power Plan from
Best Bike Split
The preloaded Best Bike Split app allows you to see how changes in
weight, power and drag can affect your goal race time, and it creates
the perfect power plan for race day. With the Best Bike Split Race Sync
app, your race day power plan will guide you to your best bike split

with you for every ride is as easy as turning on your Edge 520 Plus
bike computer. The preloaded app puts your daily workout right on the
Edge device. It guides you through your workout in real time, complete

heatmaps, trail conditions, photos, videos and much more. Wherever you
