What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Battery life is mode-dependent. Garmin claims up to 12 hours in demanding use and up to 36 hours in battery saver mode, while the specifications separately list 12 hours. These figures describe different conditions, not one unconditional runtime. Smart fueling prompts require the power guide feature or a workout plus a compatible power meter and heart rate monitor. Weather, hazard alerts, group features, LiveTrack and incident detection require a compatible smartphone and Garmin Connect. The package list includes a tether, but the displayed item text adds “See more,” so confirm the selected listing’s exact contents.
