If you already ride with a Garmin Edge, it adds a full layer of situational awareness that integrates seamlessly with your existing setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNot sure how it will fit your bike or your Garmin setup? Our team can help you choose the right mount and configure your alerts and camera settings so it works the way you ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"4\"\u003eThe Victory Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Garmin Varia RCT715 is the rear-facing device we recommend most to riders who spend real time on roads shared with traffic. Radar awareness changes how you ride. Once you’ve had a reliable heads-up on every approaching car, riding without it feels like missing a sense. The RCT715 adds something radar alone can’t: a record. If something goes wrong, the camera’s automatic incident locking means the footage is saved without you having to think about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhat we appreciate most is how well it fits into a Garmin setup. Paired with an Edge computer, alerts show up right on the screen you’re already watching, and the speed-based threat classification helps you tell the difference between a car easing past and one closing fast. The 65-lumen day flash is genuinely noticeable in daylight, which is when most rides happen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIn the Box\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003eVaria™ RCT715\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSeat post mount kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003eUSB cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSD card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDocumentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Garmin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53544496890163,"sku":"010-02474-00","price":399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/3685\/0739\/files\/Garmin-Varia-RCT715-Rear-View-Radar-With-Camera-and-Taillight-1.jpg?v=1794182978","url":"https:\/\/victorybicyclestudio.com\/products\/garmin-varia-rct715-rear-view-radar-with-camera-and-taillight-1","provider":"Victory Bicycle Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
