Critic reviews
I think there’s a strong case to be made that the Edge 530 is Garmin’s best bike computer ever. Sure, the Edge 1030 has a bigger and prettier screen, and the Edge 830 has a touchscreen. But realistically – for $299 – there’s nothing even close to this on the market.

Our Garmin Edge 530 Prices
Our aim is to make it as simple as possible to get the best Garmin Edge 530 prices, without having to spend hours trawling the internet. Most comparison sites use data feeds to update their tables automatically, but these aren’t widely available in the cycling world. So where we can’t automate price changes we check sites manually.
Most of our prices are updated on a daily basis, but where we’re performing manual checks there can be delays. If any of our Garmin Edge 530 prices are out of date please let us know in the comments below and we’ll get right on it.
When you click through on one of our Garmin Edge 530 offers, and then make a purchase, we sometimes get a commission from the retailer. Not all cycling shops do this, but where they do it has no affect the price you pay for your Edge 530 and it helps to fund the upkeep of powermeters.cc so that we can continue offering the best power meter price comparison in the UK.
