Garmin Edge 520 bike computer GPS

SO GOOD This feature-laden GPS unit uses GLONASS satellites to improve signal reliability. You can upload your ride to Garmin Connect, which is easily linked to your Strava account.

Lezyne Mini GPS bike computer GPS

SO GOOD If you’re a technophobe or a weight weenie this could be the GPS unit for you. It weighs just 36g including the mount and set-up faff is minimal.

CatEye Stealth evo+ bike computer GPS

SO GOOD Coming complete with a heart-rate monitor and speed and cadence sensors, the CatEye represents pretty good value for a GPS unit. ANT+ technology connects everything wirelessly and allows additional sensors such as power meters to be added.

Lezyne Super GPS

THE BIGGEST OF Lezyne’s three new GPS computers can compile ride, rider and other info from all sorts of sources, but its bulk, Bluetooth battery life and limited display options are potentially frustrating.

Mio Cyclo 505 GPS unit

The 505 sits in the middle of a three-unit range, and it's light, easy to use and backed up with great software.

Satmap Active 12 GPS unit

Like Schwarzenegger in Terminator, the Satmap Active 12 is a big, clever robot that's hard to understand. Its bright, hi-res 3.5in screen and comprehensive OS mapping (in either scale) make it the only real choice for serious trips into serious hills.

Bryton Rider 60T GPS unit

With its 3in touchscreen and ANT+ for wireless monitors, the Rider 60 is very similar to the Mio Cyclo. Both the unit and the software are just that little bit less intuitive.
