Big Sports Tech Sales Return: 20% off Power Meters, Trainers, Watches, and Plenty More!

Its that time of year again, when a boatload of sports tech things go on sale for a few weeks. No, not Black Friday, but rather, end-of-May. While the previous two years were a bit funky in that regard, historically speaking we’ve always seen a blend of 20% off sales mashed up against both Memorial Day + impending Father’s Day Sales.

The 20% off sales tend to cover the trainers and power meters, while the other holiday sales tend to cover watches and usually cycling tech. It’s predictably happened every single year for as long as I can remember.

In any case, I’ve consolidated the full list below for what’s available now. As you can see, many of the 20%-off sales are being driven by REI’s annual Anniversary sale coupon deal, which is notable because it provides a 20% member discount to items not technically listed for sale by itself (also, there’s other legit sale items too). For example, Garmin’s Rally power meter, or even Wahoo’s new Speedplay based power meter that just came out. Same goes for trainers. Meanwhile, Garmin is also running deals on their running watches and Edge 1030 Plus units. And then we’ve got a sprinkling of other deals from various other manufactures in there. As usual, this page dynamically updates when things get added.

If you know of a sports tech deal (gadget-focused), feel free to drop a note in the comments or in the contact form. As long as it’s not spam-like, I’m more than happy to share it out! 🙂

At present, these are almost exclusively US deals, but if I find noteworthy EU/UK/etc deals, I’ll add them in.

Watches & Wearables:

This covers anything you can wear that’s watch-like or activity band-like, including sensors.  Generally speaking, you’ll mostly find deals here that are on things I’ve written about in the past.  So you won’t find a deal on some random non-sports tech watch here, or on socks.  Unless the socks have some crazy sensor or something in them.

Garmin Epix Sapphire Black Titanium - Actually in stock $1,000 This isn't on sale at all, however, it might feel like it. Cause this is the first time since launch the Sapphire Editions are actually in-stock and at list prices. Thus, I figured I'd mention it here. 🤣🤣🤣
Garmin Epix Sapphire White Titanium - Actually in stock $1,000 This isn't on sale at all, however, it might feel like it. Cause this is the first time since launch the Sapphire Editions are actually in-stock and at list prices. Thus, I figured I'd mention it here. 🤣🤣🤣
Garmin Forerunner 245 & 245 Music - $75 off
$299/$349
$225 Both the Forerunner 245 & 245 Music are on sale for $75 off. This is neither a huge sale, nor the lowest we've seen them (previous low was $199 last Black Friday).
Garmin Forerunner 55 - $30 off
$199
$169 Oddly enough, this is actually the first record of a sale I have on the FR55. It's not a bad deal, but also not crazy either.
Garmin Forerunner 745 - $150 off
$499/499EUR
$349 ⚡ This is a solid deal on a very capable watch. More notably, it's also the watch I've long used when I'm not testing other things (and still use to compare things). While it doesn't have the onboard maps of the FR945, since I'm not traveling as much, it doesn't bother me. Of course, keep in mind that with all the Garmin units on sale, the price differences to map-inclusive units aren't very much. It's also the lowest price we've seen on the FR745 ever.
Garmin Forerunner 945 - $200 Off
$599/599EUR
$399 ⚡Officially this is $200 off, but realistically the FR945 (non-LTE) floats at about $520 most of the year, so it's really only about $120 off the norm. Still, a fantastic deal.
Garmin Forerunner 945 LTE - $200 off
$649
$449 ⚡This is by far the lowest price we've seen on the FR945 LTE. The previous sale last Black Friday was only $100 off. So this is solid!
Garmin Venu 2/2S - $50 off
$399
$349 Not too bad a deal. Nothing crazy, and not on the Venu 2 Plus with calling features.

Cycling Gear & Trainers:

Got a bike? Then this section is for you.  Everything from bike computers to bike lights to trainers, it’s all here.  I won’t generally be adding things like brake cables or bike seats here, but if I find a good deal on a cassette to stack on that new direct drive trainer you just bought, I’ll probably list it here.

Action Cameras & Drones:

Wanna record it?  No better way than an action camera.  Anything that’s action camera-related or drone-related you’ll find here.  That’s especially true of action camera mounts, which are often found for great deals around the holidays.  Same goes with drone and drone accessories.  Usually a great time to pick up an extra battery or extra props.

There are no deals currently.

I’ll continue to add deals as I find them.
