Hi All,

Just would like to know if anyone has the garmin edge 20/25 and what they are like. Better than the edge 200? it will be for MTB use.
Cheers

Are they actually available yet?

Edge 25 might be better than a 200 (as it'll do HR/cadence etc) but otherwise there probably isn't much in it.

25 is available - 20 not yet.

25 has Bluetooth and Ant+ so it'll connect to external sensors, and sync with Garmin Connect/Strava wirelessly.

Also 20/25 are Glonass enabled which means they're faster to pick up a signal and more accurate I think?

If it's like the edge 1000 having glonass turned on really hits the battery.

The 25 is available as I got the Mrs one for her birthday. Smaller than her old speedo but does a heap more. Thought for a moment I'd have to get her a new phone too as it needs Android 4.4 (something to do with Bluetooth) but fortunately found an update. Never had a Garmin before so I don't know how they compare. Comes with 2 mounts which is handy.

What do I need to put cadence and hr onto a 25 ? Garmin chest strap ? What else ?

Any ant+ speed/cadence sensor, Garmin do their own but anything should work. I use a £15 decathlon job!
