Spring Forward with The Garmin Edge 605 or 705

Here is a new item from Garmin, the Garmin Edge 605 and 705. The Garmin’s new Edge 605 and 705 are now shipping to dealers, so cyclists wanting the latest in bike computer technology will soon have it. Both come with mapping and color displays. The 705 takes it further with ANT+Sport wireless technology, which means it can pair with heart rate, cadence sensor and even compatible power meters. The beauty of ANT+Sport wireless technology is something we call “interoperability.” For you, that basically means a device like Edge plays nicely with compatible devices like sensors and software. You just pair the devices through a simple menu operation and they “find” each other. No worries on picking up data from another cyclist’s heart rate monitor or power meter, as long as you’re not near other sensors when you do the initial pairing. The Garmin Edge 605 and 705 - coming soon to a bike shop near you!
