You never see your peak.SprintPeak does.
SprintPeak is a data field for Garmin Edge® bike computers. It spots your sprints by itself and shows the numbers you can't read while you're on the pedals: your peak, your best 5 seconds, your top speed, and whether you just set a record.

- It finds your sprintsNo button to press. When you jump, the field switches to Live; when you ease off, the Sprint Card shows the numbers.
- Records you can seeBeat your max, 5, 15 or 30-second best and it turns green with the watts you gained.
- Know your launch pointWith a course loaded, the Finish Line counts down the last 500 m and turns red with GO at your launch point.
For 13 Edge models. Needs a power meter paired with your Edge.
Three steps. Then you just sprint.
SprintPeak is for riders with a power meter who sprint: in races, on group rides, in sprint intervals. It runs on the Edge as a data field. You don't start it, stop it or press anything while you ride.

Add it to a data screen
Put SprintPeak on a data screen of your activity profile. On a full page you get every number; on a half or a third of the page, the main ones; in a small field, one number.
-
Sprint
When you jump, the field switches to Live: your watts now, your peak so far and a bar up to your record. Efforts under your minimum sprint power (9.0 W/kg by default) don't count, so a hard surge on a climb isn't taken for a sprint.
-
Ease off and read it
When you ease off, the Sprint Card shows the sprint for 8 seconds (or 4, or never: your choice). Then the field goes back to the Race view. Tap the screen to see the Session and your last sprint.
The film
36 seconds. One sprint.
From the jump to the line: Live, the new record, the Sprint Card and the Finish Line. It starts muted; turn the sound on if you like.
Launch a sprint from your browser.
This is SprintPeak's full-page field on an Edge 1060, redrawn live from the app's own drawing code. Sprints, records and the Finish Line come from a JavaScript port of the app's logic. Tap the screen as you would on the Edge.
Tap the screen: Race → Session → Last sprint. With the Sprint Card showing, a tap closes it.

The screen as text
The rider in the demo has an FTP of 320 W and weighs 80 kg; records before the ride: max 1610 W, 5 s 1533 W.
Five screens. Each one shows up when you need it.
SprintPeak picks the screen for you: Live while you sprint, the Sprint Card when you ease off, the Finish Line in the last 500 m of a course. The rest of the time it shows the view you chose with a tap: Race, Session or your last sprint.
Records
Green means a new record.
SprintPeak keeps four sprint records on your Edge: max power (1 second), and your best 5, 15 and 30 seconds. The Race view puts today's best next to each one. Beat one and it turns green with the watts you gained; beat your max in a sprint and the Sprint Card says NEW PB.
- MAXtoday 1648 W · PB 1610 W+38
- 5 stoday 1529 W · PB 1533 W−4
- 15 stoday 1184 W · PB 1262 W−78
Where the records come from
From your rides with SprintPeak. If you already know yours, type them in the phone settings (Your PBs (watts)): the higher of what you type and what you ride counts.
Why the 5-second record matters
It's the reference for spotting sprints: SprintPeak measures each effort against your best 5 seconds, so it adapts as you get faster.
Zones
Colors follow seven power zones, the same colors on every screen: the zones of your Edge user profile, or zones worked out from your FTP if you type it in the phone settings. Weight comes from the profile too, or from the phone settings.
Start over
Erase all PBs in the phone settings deletes every record, typed ones too. It cannot be undone.
Session
See when your sprints start to fade.
Doing 6 × 10-second sprints? The Session view lists every sprint of the ride with its best 5 seconds and a bar. The best one is marked BEST; the others show how far they dropped from it, in red from 10% down.
Fatigue
How far, on average, your sprints fall short of your best one. 0% means every sprint matched your best.
Recovery
The time since your last sprint ended, so you know when to go again.
Finish Line
Know where to launch.
The Finish Line shows up by itself in the last 500 meters of a course. It tells you how far the line is and when you reach your launch point.
- Load a course on your Edge that ends on the finish line, and ride it as usual. Without a course the Finish Line doesn't appear.
- Inside 500 m the field shows the meters to the line (rounded to 10 m above 100 m), a scale from 500 to 0 with the checkered flag on the line, and your power, speed and cadence.
- Count down to your launch point. “LAUNCH IN 40 m” counts down to it: 250 m before the line by default, anywhere from 50 to 1000 m in the phone settings.
- GO. At your launch point the whole field flashes yellow for 2 seconds, then turns red with GO. When you jump, Live takes over.
Dark at night. Light in the sun.
By default SprintPeak follows your Edge's background, white or black. In the phone settings (Display → Theme) you can keep it always dark or always light. Records stay green and the launch point stays yellow in both.
Six pages of settings, on your phone.
Settings live in the Connect IQ app on your phone: open SprintPeak's settings, pick a page, change what you need, go back and tap Save. The Edge gets the new values when it syncs. Pick a page to see it.
The phone is our drawing: page names, options and defaults are the app's own; the Connect IQ app on your phone looks different.

From the store to your first sprint.
You need an Edge from the list above, a power meter paired with it and the Connect IQ app on your phone.
- Get it from the Connect IQ™ Store (coming soon): in the Connect IQ app on your phone, pick your Edge, open SprintPeak and install it. Let the Edge sync.
- Add it to a data screen. In your activity profile, edit a data screen, use a layout with one field (full page) and pick SprintPeak. In smaller fields it shows fewer numbers.
- Ride and sprint. FTP and weight come from your Edge user profile, or set them in the phone settings. Records build up from your rides, or type the ones you know.

Questions
Do I need a power meter?
Yes. SprintPeak reads the power your Edge already gets from a paired power meter.
What counts as a sprint?
A jump in power measured against your best 5 seconds. It must reach your minimum sprint power for at least 1 second (9.0 W/kg of your weight by default, from 6.0 to 12.0 in the phone settings), and its best 5 seconds must reach 1.0 W/kg less. A sprint lasts up to 40 seconds.
Will the Sprint Card cover my map or my other data?
No. It shows inside the SprintPeak field, for 8 seconds by default (4, or off, in the phone settings), and a tap closes it. Race mode keeps it off during the ride.
Does it work without a course?
Yes. Everything works without a course except the Finish Line, which needs a course loaded on the Edge.
Where are my records kept?
On your Edge. You can type your own in Your PBs (watts). Erase all PBs deletes them all, typed ones too, and cannot be undone.
Miles or kilometers?
SprintPeak follows the units of your Edge: km/h and meters, or mph and yards.
Which Edge models does it work on?
Edge 1060, 1050, 1040, 1030, 1030 Plus, 1030 Bontrager, 850, 840, 830, 550, 540, 530 and Edge MTB. See the table above.
Is the demo on this page the real app?
The screens are redrawn from the app's own drawing code, with the same fonts, colors and layout. Sprints, records and the Finish Line run on a JavaScript port of the app's logic, checked with tests. The rides in the demo are made up by us.
