Garmin has really upped the ante on the entire cycling computercategory with it's new gps-enabled navigator/computer, the 705. This is a true navigational aid with full-color maps and turn-by-turn directions in addition to advanced route-planning and saving capabilities. On top of that, the 705 adds heart rate and cadence monitors, a barometric altimeter, and wireless capability that lets you share routes and workout data with other riders instantly. Sleek and waterproof, with a 2.2-inch color screen that lets you customize what data you see and how you see it, these two devices help make the most of every ride.

In order to further increase riding comfort, we recommend the use of ASSOS Chamois Cr. The Assos Chamois Cr reduces friction and keeps your skin cooler. It prevents inflammation and has antibacterial properties. Apply directly to the skin (avoid intimate areas) before each ride.

The "Silencer" (also known as rubber thingys, ID gaskets, and rubber doo dads) fit snugly around the edge of the Fixx ID. They were originally developed for military men and women to keep their dog tags from clanging together.
