With a high-end processor and screen to run, the Karoo 2’s battery life isn’t great at around eight hours though.

#Mtb gps tracker software

Instead, Hammerhead interfaces to third-party software such as Strava or TrainingPeaks for any more detailed post-ride analysis. The phone app just passes data back and forward to the Karoo 2 without any user interface and the web app has limited functionality, although it does let you plan or import a route and keeps a record of your rides, routes and workouts. The Karoo 2 was the first cycling computer to give you climb profiles on the fly as you ride, so there’s no need to pre-plan a route to display gradient and distance to the top. The resolution of the sharp colour touchscreen is also much greater than competitors.

It links automatically into the best-in-class Garmin Connect training infrastructure, giving you route planning using Garmin’s heatmaps from its rider community and lots of post-ride analysis options that others make you pay for.

It’s highly configurable and records loads of training stats. The Edge 1040 is much more of a training aid than just a ride recorder, so it gives you your training status, recovery time and more. Size-wise, it’s a large device, a tiny bit larger than the Edge 1030 Plus, but it’s got 64GB of memory, so it can store twice as much data. There’s a non-solar option as well, which costs less. We regularly gained 10 minutes per hour of extra charge on summer rides. Garmin’s latest top-end computer has a neat trick – there’s a solar glass screen that can extend your runtime up to an industry-leading claimed 45 hours.
