The Garmin Edge 1040 is, without doubt, one of the best bike computers on the market, and represents a brilliant example of what is regarded as an essential piece of cycling tech for the modern cyclist.

The Edge 1040 comes packed with user-friendly functionality, and right now, it's available for just $483.50, a reduction of $116.49 off the RRP of $599.99. It's not quite the lowest the 1040 has ever hit; that was $448 back in June, during the Prime Day sales, but considering Garmin and Walmart are selling it for the full price of $599.99, it's still a more than worthy Garmin deal.

The Garmin Edge 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, which comes with a $699.99 price tag. However, the upgrades from the 1040 to the 1050 are fairly minimal considering the price difference. 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, but the Edge 1040 Solar version will cost you at full price $749.99.

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.

This deal is currently only available in the US, but below are all the best Garmin Edge 1040 deals in your territory.
