Cycling safety has always been a top priority for Garmin and the Varia NCT715 rearview radar is a testament to that commitment. This smart device is not just a tail light, it doubles as your personal guardian on the road.

Unmatched Safety Features

Visual and audible notifications alert you to vehicles approaching from behind up to 140 meters away, giving you ample time to react. The tail lights are visible from a mile away to ensure that drivers can see you long before the radar detects their vehicles. These features are crucial for anyone cycling on busy roads or during low-light conditions.

Seamless Integration

Whether you use a Garmin Edge cycling computer, a Garmin smartwatch or the Varia smart device app the radar integrates seamlessly to provide real-time alerts and notifications. When paired with a compatible smartphone, it can also integrate with third-party apps like Ride with GPS that overlays radar notifications on your maps for a comprehensive riding experience.

Furthermore, the built-in camera continuously records your surroundings during a ride and automatically saves footage if an incident is detected. This feature not only enhances your safety but also provides invaluable evidence in case of any accidents.

Garmin’s Tacx NEO Bike Plus

For those who prefer the comfort of indoor training, Garmin’s Tacx NEO Bike Plus is a game-changer. This all-in-one indoor smart bike offers one of the most accurate, realistic and quiet riding experiences available.

Realistic Ride Feel

The Tacx NEO Bike Plus mimics the feel of jumping into a different gear with the tap of a finger, thanks to its redesigned programmable shifters for SHIMANO, SRAM or Campagnolo. Additionally, you can feel different surfaces like cobblestones and gravel when paired with the Tacx Training app or compatible third-party apps. This dynamic inertia helps maintain a sensation of forward motion based on speed and gradient, making your indoor rides feel incredibly lifelike.
