Garmin Edge 520 Plus at ProBikeKit | ~~£259.99~~ £174.99 View Deal

Although the screen is smaller than the flagship Edge 1030, the Garmin 520 packs a punch with its functionality. To highlight just a few of the many, many features this head unit provides, it comes with: preloaded maps with turn by turn directions, Strava live segments so you can see the competition, as well as Bluetooth and ANT+ connectivity for all the peripherals you could wish.View Deal

Garmin Vector 3 Double Sided Power Meter Pedals at ProBikeKit | ~~£849.99~~ £629.99 View Deal

These are Garmin’s latest and greatest power meter pedals, which have been made significantly more user friendly than the previous iterations. It really is as simple as swapping out your pedals and pairing them with your head unit.View Deal

The dual sided readings will measure the power of your leg to an accuracy of ±1 per cent, helping you quickly spot any imbalances you might be harbouring.View Deal

Garmin Vector 3S Single Side Power Meter Pedals at ProBikeKit | ~~£499.00~~ £389 View Deal

If you’re after power readings, but aren’t fussed about your left/right balance, these single sided power pedals represent an affordable option for getting the “metric of truth”. Although the power reading itself is accurate to ±1 per cent, it works by simply doubling the reading of your left leg, so it’s not quite as precise as the double-sided pedals.View Deal

Although it is only the left that reads power, you’ll still get a dumb right-side pedal in the package. There’s also always the option to upgrade the right pedal down the line, if you decide to.View Deal

Garmin HRM Dual Heart Rate Monitor at ProBikeKit | ~~£59.99~~ £47.99 View Deal

Although power might be the most hyped metric right now, heart rate hasn’t lost its importance. Although power might measure the work you are putting out, it isn’t measuring the effect it is having on your body—heart rate does. There’s a reason why you’ll rarely see the pros racing without one.View Deal

This strap communicates over ANT+ and Bluetooth for fuss free connectivity and Garmin claim that the battery won’t need replacing for three and a half years.View Deal

Garmin Forerunner 735XT at Amazon | ~~£299.99~~ £221.00 View Deal

The cost of equipment for any budding triathlete can quickly add up, but Garmin’s Multisport watch can triple up for measuring your swims, cycles and runs. There are many great features relating to the other two sports, but we’ll focus here on the cycling.View Deal

The watch can pair up with your power meter and heart rate monitor to show you those metrics as you ride and also to give an estimate of your VO2 max. It’s also compatible with Strava live segments, so you can see your competition in real time as you blast it up those hills.View Deal

Garmin Varia UT800 Smart Headlight at Wiggle | ~~£149.99~~ £99.99 View Deal

Garmin's Varia UT800 Smart Headlight has an 800-lumen beam that will last up to 1.5 hours and has five different light modes to tailor to the conditions you are riding in. But the impressive part is, when you connect to an Edge cycling computer, the GPS automatically adjusts the intensity of the light depending on the speed you're riding - the faster, the brighter.View Deal
