  • The Speed Sensor 2 attaches to the hub of either wheel. You can set up the exact wheel size manually using the Garmin Connect app or allow the sensor to self-calibrate when connected to an Edge cycling computer or compatible Garmin device. Once set up you get accurate speed and distance data every time you start moving.The new Speed sensor records activity automatically without the need to start a ride on your GPS or mobile. This is a particularly useful feature if you‚Äôre not interested in having a detailed GPS file of a regular ride such as a commute but do want the miles, time, and speeds you‚Äôve ridden to be counted from day to day. Once the sensor pairs up with an internet connected device again the simplified activities will be uploaded to the Garmin Connect app and any other 3rd party apps that are linked to your Garmin account such as Strava. The auto start activity feature can be enabled or disabled in the Garmin Connect app as required.Key Features

As with many cyclists, be it mountain bikers, BMX riders or road cyclists we want to take the time to make sure we get the best products. Where cycling is a passion for many we often invest a lot of our time and money into the hobby. And as we know, getting the right products can give us that small competitive advantage either over our actual competitors, our mates or even just beating our own goals. But because we do invest so much in our bikes and our equipment it’s really important to buy from recognised retailers, in our most recent search, we found many products available online for ridiculously (almost laughable) prices. They were just so low that alarm bells should instantly be ringing. That’s why we only recommend buying from the retailers that you really know and trust, names like Wiggle, Chain Reaction and Evans Cycles are just some of those that we use regularly. With these retailers you know you’re in safe hands and can expect great service, great returns policies and if anything was to go wrong great customer service under a warranty claim.

But onto the reason you’re here today, let’s delve into some of the details of Garmin Bike Speed Sensor 2 to help you understand a bit more about where it sits in the market against some of the many alternatives that are available out there. We’re very aware that by buying our cycling stuff online that we’ve missed out on the opportunity to actually see and test the product first. This is where reviews come in to their own, as it gives us that chance to hear from other like-minded cyclists about how good or bad a product is.

As you would expect, our first and top piece of advice before buying, is to read lots and lots of Garmin Bike Speed Sensor 2 reviews. With a review score of 8.1 out of 10 it’s likely that there will be lots of great detailed reviews to help you. And if you find that actually the reviews are suggesting Garmin Bike Speed Sensor 2 isn’t right for you then there will be tons and tons of other reviews for other products in the GPS Accessories category. In fact we’ve got 33 products reviewed in this category alone.

Something that makes it particularly challenging is the vast range of choice, as mentioned above there are 33 products in the GPS Accessories category. There are also 195 products from the brand Garmin. And then getting into the specifics even more there are 11 products from Garmin in the category “GPS Accessories”.

So let’s take a look at the second most important decision making tool we can use when shopping online, price. Whether your goal is to just get the cheapest GPS Accessories available, or to get the best quality at a reasonable price, there’s always going to be a need to do your research on price.
