Sometimes, having a powerful headlight on your bicycle is not enough to keep you safe. When you’re on a bicycle, the bigger danger is those vehicles that can come at you from behind.

The Garmin Varia Radar is what you need to protect yourself!

This device consists of two components: a radar transmitter/tail light that installs in the rear and a radar display unit that you can mount on the handlebars. Once setup, it can detect the presence of vehicles within 153 yards behind you, showing up to eight of them at a time in the included display unit as they are approaching closer. Varia-Bike-Radar-Car-Approaching_thumb

The integrated tail light helps to increase the brightness as vehicles get closer, ensuring those coming up know about your presence on the road.

Varia-Bike-Radar-Back-Waiting_thumbAvailable starting in the third quarter, the Garmin Varia Radar is priced at $199 for the transmitter and an additional $100 if you want the display unit.
