Cycling Computers and GPS Watches Explained

1. What are they?

   Computers and GPS devices help you ride, record and review your training performance data. Sports watches are basically computers that are perfectly passable as an everyday watch.

2. Why are they good?

   Computers, GPS and watches are all fantastic training companions to hit the road and trails with. A GPS unit provides you with guided navigation and this is invaluable when you are riding or running in new locations. A Cycle computer allows you to review your training performance by recording all of your ride data such as speed and distance.

3. How do I choose?

   It’s important to buy a device that is right for you and your training needs. If you don’t require any guided navigation then a cycle computer without GPS shall suffice. If you want the benefits of a cycle computer with guided navigation, then a cycle GPS like a Garmin Edge is the best bet. Please consult the buying guide to learn more about the various types of cycle GPS.
