The Edge 205 GPS-enabled personal trainer and cycle computer is the ultimate fitness partner. View larger.

The Edge 205 is easy to use. Simply take it out of the box, snap it into the included bike mount, and hit the road. The high-sensitivity GPS receiver knows your position even in tree cover and canyons, making the Edge 205 an extremely reliable navigation device. And with the customizable cycle computer, you can select from up to eight different data fields for continuous feedback. Garmin goes well beyond typical cycle computers by integrating GPS technology for basic navigation. In addition, the Edge 205 gives you the ability to overlay your ride data onto a course map and even "race" a virtual partner. This is a great way to make your training fun and push you toward your goals.

The included PC-based Training Center software gives you the tools to create workouts, manage and download courses, and create a detailed post-ride analysis that charts your performance and measures your speed, distance, climb, descent, and heart-rate data against varying terrain, elevation, and other conditions. And with the Edge 205's built-in USB interface, uploading and downloading information is simple and fast.

The virtual partner screen depicts a digital cyclist (representing your desired speed) in relation to your real-time speed. From this set of data the icons will show how far ahead or behind you are from your digital competitor. The Courses feature allows you to race against a recorded course to try and match previously set speeds at every point along the way. By combining the Virtual Partner and Courses features, you can race an opponent who varies speeds while climbing hills and navigating turns.

Training in urban areas can be tricky, and traffic congestion can skew training data. To help remedy this problem, Garmin has included an auto-pause function that pauses the training timer when you slow down below a specified speed and resumes when you speed up again so you can focus on your ride, not on data collection. And with the auto lap function, this smart little device automatically triggers a lap every time you pass a specified location or travel a preset distance.

With its sleek, waterproof design (the Edge 205 meets IEC 60529 IPX7 standards, which means that its components can be submerged in one meter of water for 30 minutes), the Edge 205 is the perfect companion for any bike, and it can attach to either the stem or handlebars. This lightweight device (88 grams) is powered by an 800mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery and delivers an average of 12 hours of use per charge. The rugged case frames an easy-to-read, large, backlit display that makes it a breeze to view the data fields. So whether you're racing against your virtual partner, fighting to shave precious seconds off your old record, or training for the next big race, the Edge 205 is there to help monitor your progress and make you a better cyclist.

Edge 205, bike mount, Training Center CD, A/C charger, USB PC interface, quick reference guide, and owner's manual.

- watch out for refurbished units sold as new
At least one dishonest Amazon vendor (Buy Accessories) is selling overhauled/refurbished units as new. Play it safe and only buy from Amazon itself.

Other than that, it looks great; have not used it yet. Buy a USB emergency battery charger for longer trips. APC has several good ones:

- Domestic Bliss
This is the second Edge 205 I have purchased for my wife. The first one quit taking a charge after about 1.5 years and to maintain domestic bliss I bought another for her. She really likes it and uses it on her rides several times a week.

The biggest drawback is the battery. The unit is sealed so it cannot be replaced by the user, and with regular use any battery eventually fails, not matter what the technology. No doubt it is just a variation on a cell phone battery, but apparently ... Read More

- Sketchy Performance as a Cycling Computer
I used this GPS/computer for a year and would not rate it very highly for price versus performance. Its good points: trivial to move from one bike to another (I've even thrown it in a back pocket to record a workout), reasonable accuracy for distance, though complaints in other reviews about altitude are completely valid (it still can't decide the altitude of my house within 50 feet). It provides lots of data, though much of it unusable (why don't they have a text file format so that you could load ... Read More

- Great Stuff
This is the best gadget I ever bought for my bike. It allows me to go riding places I never was before and still feel a "local".
The original Garmin software realy sucks but the internet is full of tools you can use to load your Garmin Edge with pre-defined routes. Cool stuff

- Excellent GPS Cycle Computer for the Price!
I was a little concerned about trying the Garmin Edge 205 after having read some of the critical reviews. But, I went ahead and tried it since the price was so appealing. I am VERY GLAD I did!! The only thing I have to agree with the critical reviewers on is the calories burn estimation is WAY OFF (it estimates about twice the calories burned as my Polar Heartrate Monitor says I burn). Otherwise, this Garmin does EVERYTHING it says it will do! I have found distance & speed to be right on with ... Read More
