Tempted: Garmin's Flagship Edge 1040 is Down to $399 Today
The Garmin Edge 1040 bike computer is on sale at Amazon for $399, a $200 discount. A quick take on why this is a great deal for data-driven cyclists.
The Garmin Edge 1040 (the non-Solar version) is on sale today at Amazon for $399, which is a full $200 off its regular price. For me, the appeal of the 1040 has always been about two key things: battery life and data. The Solar model gets all the press, but this standard version still boasts a massive 35-hour battery life.
Beyond the battery, it's the ultimate data hub. As a data guy, having access to features like real-time Stamina, Power Guide, and the multi-band GNSS for rock-solid accuracy (even in tree cover) is the real draw. My initial take: If you're a serious cyclist and have been holding off on an upgrade, $399 for Garmin's flagship computer is a fantastic deal. It's rare to see a $200 discount on this tier of gear.
Grab one on Amazon.
