Cycling computers have become remarkably clever over the years, but Garmin has taken things in a particularly interesting direction with the Edge 1060. Instead of making you navigate endless menus every time you need information, they've given it a microphone, a speaker and the ability to understand voice commands. Yes, you can now talk to your bike computer. And unlike your riding mates, it'll actually listen when you ask where the nearest café is.
The Edge 1060 is packed with technology designed to make every ride more informed, connected and enjoyable. Its vivid colour touchscreen and physical buttons give you easy access to detailed cycling maps, intelligent route planning and advanced performance data. Garmin Coach provides personalised training plans, ClimbPro helps you manage demanding ascents, and Power Guide offers useful pacing recommendations. Road hazard alerts, GroupRide features and Varia compatibility help keep you informed about what's happening around you. Add up to 20 hours of battery life in demanding use or up to 60 hours in Battery Saver mode, and you've got a cycling computer that's ready for some seriously long days in the saddle.

The Garmin Edge 1060 is a genuinely impressive piece of cycling technology that manages to make an enormous amount of information feel surprisingly accessible. Voice control keeps the important functions close at hand, intelligent navigation takes the uncertainty out of exploring new routes, and advanced training features help you make sense of all those numbers you've been collecting. It's a proper riding companion that's been designed around how cyclists actually use their equipment. Just remember, asking it to make your legs stronger probably won't work. You'll still have to do the riding yourself.
