Save $123 on this bundled Garmin deal, which includes the Edge 1040 and Varia rearview radar and tail light. The Varia is one of the best rear cycling lights around and it provides an extra level of safety by alerting you to vehicles approaching from behind up to 153 yards (140 meters) away.

The Garmin 1040 may no longer be the flagship device in Garmin's lineup of GPS computers, as it has recently been succeeded by the Garmin Edge 1050. However, the upgrades from the 1040 to the 1050 are fairly minimal considering the cost. If you are willing to forgo a few of the new features – such as the brighter screen, Garmin Pay, and the digital bell – the 1040 remains a solid choice.
The 1040's battery life is claimed to be 35 hours, which is quite impressive for a non-solar Garmin, with the Garmin 1040 Solar extending its capacity to 45 hours.
The 3.5-inch colour touchscreen offers numerous features focused on fitness and performance. Key highlights include strength and stamina training, along with a built-in program that reminds you if you miss a workout, simplifying your training schedule planning.
These deals are currently only available in the US, but below are all the best Garmin Edge 1040 deals in your territory.
