DesFit Review: Garmin Varia RearVue 820

In his latest review, DesFit takes a detailed look at the new Garmin Varia RearVue 820, breaking down what Garmin improved and who this upgrade is really for. Released in February 2026, the RearVue 820 builds on Garmin’s radar legacy with a brighter 100-lumen tail light, expanded 175-meter vehicle detection, brake light functionality, and more advanced vehicle tracking when paired with compatible Edge computers or the Varia app. Des dives into real world usability, battery life, and whether the added features justify the price compared to previous Varia models and competing radar units.

10 Tracks with Lora Lowe

Ride Review: Greg Scanlan’s 2022 S-Works Crux

Greg Scanlan raced this 2022 Specialized S-Works Crux to a win the men's 50-54 race during the first-ever USA Cycling Gravel National Championships in Gering, Neb, last September. If everything goes according to plan, he will race the same bike in the same town and get the same result on Sunday. The 58cm Crux is dripping with Dura-Ace and weighs in at 17.50 lbs. The only difference from last year is a shift from 38mm to 45mm tires.

Good luck to Greg and everyone racing on Sunday.
