Edge 200 features a high-sensitivity GPS receiver with HotFix satellite prediction to calculate your position faster. That means when you turn it on outdoors, it finds satellites quickly so you can get on with your ride. It also alerts you if you're moving but the timer is not running. Edge 200 has an Auto Pause feature so it will stop the timer when you're not moving, then restart automatically when you're rolling again. You also can set alerts for distance, time or calories to make it easier and more fun to achieve your goals.

The Edge 200 comes with 2 sets of mounts in the box but I believe additional mounts can be purchased separately.

answer 5

Yes, it uses the same mounts as the Garmin 800 but will have at least one extra mount with it. My 800 came with a mount kit which is 2 mounts and I bought another kit which is another 2 mounts.

It is the quarter turn mount, the link is below.

The new Edge 200 is a GPS giving basic data compared to the 800 and 500 , it still has access to Garmin Connect and ghost rider . This is still a very impressive unit , but it all depends on how much information you require .

Question

Use of unit with Garmin Connect

I understand that the Edge 200 can be used with Garmin Connect so that cycle routes can be downloaded and followed. How does this work in practice (i mean on-the-road following)? A review i read mentions 'breadcrumbs' - how does that work? Does the unit tell you which direction to turn and when?

Once you have made a course and sent it to your device it shows you a GPS route witch is an arrow that guides your around your Course ... There is also a back to start function .. When pressed it will take you back to the start with a GPS map ..

I don't think it would be suitable as it is fairly bulky and would be awkward to mount on a wrist strap.
