WTS (SYD) - Garmin Edge 705

[grapefruit85]

No scratches on screen. Will include wall charger, USB cable, bike mount, HRM, documentation and speed/cadence sensor (the speed pickup does not work but this was not an issue for me as the GPS track is sufficient - I rode for nine months this way)

I am selling this because I no longer have the time to ride enough to justify it.

$239 + postage.

Forgive my ignorance - do the Garmins come with maps loaded or do you have to buy them seperately?

I did not choose to purchase the bundle with the included maps, the bundle being additionally priced; but you can buy the maps separately which is just the pre-loaded SD card which you would slot into the unit.

Personally I downloaded maps from http://www.osmaustralia.org/index.php, based on the open-sourced openstreetmap.org project, which worked fine for my own purposes. I did not feel like I needed to pay the additional 150-odd for features I would never use. The maps are only useful if you want to make use of the wayfinding and searching features, points of interest etc; and topographic data is pretty useless for road cycling. The custom ones work just as well.

Price reduced to $229 with postage included anywhere in Aus.
