Garmin is keeping up a fast pace with its cycling computer testing. Just two days after releasing build 33.21, the company has started rolling out a new beta software update, version 33.22. The fresh test firmware is available for the Edge 1050, Edge 850, Edge 550, and the Edge MTB bike computers.
What is Fixed in Beta 33.22
- Fixed large cadence spikes when pedaling backward while connected to a Bosch Smart System.
- Fixed Varia Vue On Radar Activity recording mode.
This quick follow-up patch targets two specific bugs affecting e-bike riders and accessory users rather than adding new tools to the cycling computers.
First, Garmin resolved a data glitch for riders using a Bosch Smart System. Previously, pedaling backward while paired with the e-bike system could trigger sudden, inaccurate cadence spikes on the screen. Second, the update fixes a bug with the Varia Vue’s “On Radar Activity” recording mode, ensuring the device captures footage properly when radar alerts happen.
How to Download the Update
If your Edge bike computer is enrolled in Garmin’s public beta program, you can install the new software right over Wi-Fi without plugging into a computer.
Once your device is connected to a saved Wi-Fi network, open the Main Menu, tap System, and select About. From that screen, choose Check For Updates to download and install version 33.22.
