Garmin Varia RTL515 Radar Rechargeable Rear Light

Garmin’s new rear light is a game changer when it comes to road cycling in winter. This compact device acts as your rear view mirror when on roads alerting you to cars from behind. The visual and audible alerts given on a paired Garmin device mean you’ve never been more aware of potential hazards around you on the road. It’s important to note that while acting as a radar, this Garmin has multiple modes as a rear light too, including a day, night and peloton setting.

New in to Merlin is Sram’s Power Meter Chainset. Connected to your Garmin, maintaining the race pace during the off-season has just been made easy. Unaffected by temperature changes, this power meter ensures accuracy throughout winter despite the cold. Sram’s success with this product has been justified even more with the carbon crankarm’s incredibly light and stiff qualities.
