Our guy, DesFit, who has become one of the most trusted voices in cycling tech with over 248,000 YouTube subscribers, just released his deep dive on Garmin’s latest device: the Edge MTB- $399.99.

This new model blends the compact, rugged form factor of the Edge 540 with elements of the Edge 1050’s updated interface — and introduces a range of MTB-specific features designed for trail riders.

All wrapped in a smaller, tougher unit with a Gorilla Glass screen and improved button design.

Check out DesFit’s full review below to see what’s new, what’s missing, and whether the Edge MTB is the right fit for your next ride.
