This year, Black Friday falls on the 29th of November. The mega sale will run all weekend and culminate with Cyber Monday on the 2nd of December. Typically the best deals occur during Black Friday weekend itself, but each year Amazon and basically every other retailer rolls out deals early. We are keeping an eye on all things Garmin in the run-up to the main event. 

Garmin's smartwatches, GPS devices, and accessories like heart rate monitors are well respected by the Cyclingnews tech team, and we use them ourselves. They're regularly discounted during the sale event.

Battery life is 28 days and there are the usual health and fitness features, but no contactless pay tech, so consider this if it's a deal breaker for you.

Currently, this is the cheapest this model has ever been on Amazon, and it could go lower yet.
