Garmin are well known for their GPS tracking devices and the Vivoactive crosses the boundries between ‘fitness tracker’ and fully fledged GPS. This is the one to go for if you’re looking for a full set set of cycling specific data as well as fitness tracker benefits and a sleek design.

This tracker will provide you with speed and distance stats, plus cadence if you’ve got a sensor, heart rate based calorie consumption data and you can ask it to vibrate if you drop below a set speed (this could get annoying on a hill or in a headwind!).

The ultra-thin GPS watch has a high-resoloution colour touchscreen, and can track others sports such as swimming and running as well as cycling.

As well as tracking steps, alerting you to inactivity and keeping an eye on your sleep, the vivoactive will keep you in touch with everything else going on in your life too – with vibration alerts when you receive calls, texts or notifications.

The downside on this one is that unlike other devices, which take heart rate from your wrist, you will need to wear a monitor with this watch.

Cost? £199.99 from Garmin – which might seem a lot, but not if it can take the place of a handlbar mounted GPS and a fitness tracker.
