Ride like a local

TRAILFORKS APP

When using the Trailforks app, this mode automatically displays upcoming forks in the trail and gives you context by showing where you are within a trail network.

TURN-BY-TURN DIRECTIONS

BACK TO START

Edge® 530 is smart enough to guide you back to the route — or back to start — if you deviate from it or decide to head home early.

ROUTE CALCULATION

Be ready to ride more quickly. Our routes now calculate faster and cache so you can spend more time riding and less time waiting around.
