Spring is here, and Amazon’s Big Spring Deals are blooming. It’s a chance for you to score savings up to 25 percent on some great cycling gear. Our editors combed through the equipment on sale to pick out some of the best deals on equipment we use, love, and recommend.

Longer daylight hours and warmer weather of springtime mean you’ll be heading out for more road, gravel, and mountain bike rides. Many cyclists want to improve safety, navigate on rides, measure fitness, and track stats during and after rides. There is great tech—such as radar, cycling computers, power meters, and heart rate monitors—to help you do it and beat your riding goals.

Unfortunately, high-performance cycling equipment can be pricey, and riders often want gear they know will work from brands they can trust. Garmin and Wahoo are two of the most popular brands, and they make some of our editors’ favorite products.

Below are ten Garmin and Wahoo picks our editors and test team use daily.

Radar

On-bike radar systems are the biggest improvement to cyclist safety in decades. This is a must-have item for any road or gravel rider. Garmin’s Varia RTL515 is the benchmark radar; it works great and is priced right. Wahoo’s Trackr Radar is a test team favorite. It features solid battery life, a brake light, and a low weight.

Heart Rate Monitor

Heart rate monitors are a time-tested training tool for cyclists. While many riders are turning to power metrics to measure performance and gains, HRMs provide extremely useful data—and they cost much less than a power meter. The Wahoo Trackr is rechargeable, durable, and a test team favorite.

Computers

Whether you use it for route directions on rides, to display metrics, or to measure progress, cycling computers are useful for every type of rider. Garmin and Wahoo offer some of the most-trusted and top-performing head units available. Data-driven riders love Garmin’s Edge-series computers for their high level of customization, while Wahoo’s Elemnt units are praised for their ease of use.

Power Pedals

Power meters are an excellent tool for cyclists seeking to better their fitness or follow a training program for an event. Power meters come in various forms; a popular option is power pedals. They’re useful for riders who don’t want to change cranks on their bike, want to share a power meter between multiple bikes, or need dual-sided power measurement. Garmin’s Rally power pedals are pricey but highly accurate. They’re offered in Shimano SPD-SL and Look Keo-compatible road versions, as well as Shimano SPD-style for mountain bike and gravel riders.

Clipless Pedals

If you’re looking to purchase new road clipless pedals—but don’t want or need a power meter—Wahoo’s Speedplay pedals are a good option. Many road pedals are single-sided, which can make them more difficult to clip into when getting underway from a stop. Speedplay pedals, however, feature dual-sided entry. The Zero version features a stainless-steel axle and a 53mm Q-factor. (56mm, 59mm, and 65mm axles are also available through your Speedplay dealers.)

Indoor Trainers

Many people think indoor trainers are only for winter cycling and training, but trainers are useful in every season. Sometimes it’s pouring rain, and we don’t want to ride outside. Other times, we have work, parenting, or life commitments that get in the way of riding during daylight hours. Indoor trainers allow you to ride 365 days a year without worrying about the weather or time of day.

Wahoo manufactures some of our favorite indoor trainers. Released last year, the Kickr Core 2 is the best smart trainer for the price, with features that rival (and sometimes beat) pricier units. Another option is the excellent Kickr Bike. It’s expensive, but well worth it if you’re looking to invest in a dedicated home gym or workout space.
