Garmin Edge

Garmin Edge 850

The Garmin Edge 850 is a compact GPS bike computer with a 2.7 in. color touchscreen and buttons, showing maps and stats in vivid detail. A charge lasts up to 12 hours in demanding use, and battery saver mode stretches that to 36 hours. With your phone paired, road hazards reported by fellow cyclists show up on your route. GroupRide keeps your group in touch with messages and live locations. You can build a new course right on the touchscreen and see the surface type as you go.

Edge 850 is the compact GPS cycling computer featuring a vivid color touchscreen display with buttons to give you the right insights, guidance and fueling advice to perform better than ever. Some training and performance features require a compatible heart rate monitor, power meter or both.

Ride like a local with TopoActive maps and Trailforks data built in, and buy mid-ride snacks or drinks without your wallet using Garmin Pay from participating providers.

Inside the Edge 850

How it works

Multi-band GNSS and 5 Hz logging
Multi-band GNSS listens to more than one signal band from several satellite systems, including GPS, GLONASS and Galileo. It also records your position five times a second, for hyper-detailed tracking of the trail you rode.
5 Hz
Pacing from real-time stamina
Real-time stamina tracks how much energy you have left as you ride, with compatible sensors paired. Add a power meter and power guide suggests power targets personalized to your fitness and route, so you can pace a hard course well.
Smart fueling alerts
During power guide rides or structured workouts it prompts you on carbs and water. With a compatible power meter and heart rate monitor paired, the alerts follow real-time course conditions, your fitness level, heat and humidity.
Courses drawn on the touchscreen
The on-device course creator builds a new route right on the touchscreen and shows the surface type along the way. Over Wi-Fi the map manager adds, updates or removes maps without a computer, and 32 GB of internal storage holds them.
