Highlights for training & racing

Use cycling-specific intensity zones

Paying attention to your training intensity makes training more productive.

Use cycling-specific intensity zones

The variables you can play with in your training are training frequency, duration and intensity. In your Suunto watch you can set cycling specific heart rate zones along with power zones. Your personal intensity zones will guide you during activity, help analyze your workouts and be the bases for reliable training load and long-term analyses.

Train with power

Connect your power meter to your Suunto watch or Karoo 2 bike computer and follow your performance.

Train with power

Power is a key metric in cycling training and Suunto sports watches are compatible with BLE power meters.

In addition to following your power numbers during rides and seeing them in your analyses you can follow selected TrainingPeaks metrics, like Normalized Power, Intensity Factor and Training Stress Score even in real-time during exercise or use SuuntoPlus™ Sprint to automatically detect and track your sprints.

Karoo 2 bike computers work with both BLE and ANT+ devices.

The key aspect of improving your fitness is your ability to increase your training load over a longer period of time. The variables you can play with are training frequency, duration and intensity. With long-term analysis tools powered by TrainingPeaks you can now manage your training better than ever.

Commute for good

Track your human-powered commutes and see how much you CO2e you've saved by riding to work.

Commute for good

Riding to work is both good for you and good for the environment. We take sustainability seriously and want to improve both our ways of working and support you in making responsible choices in your everyday life.

Suunto app allows you to track these rides and shows you how much CO2e you have saved compared to driving the same distance. As the time goes on you will learn how these small choices add up!

Ride all day long

Suunto also makes the recreational rides more enjoyable.

Ride all day long

Training data isn’t only helpful for goal-oriented training: A Suunto watch can make a long, leisurely day in the saddle more fun and enjoyable. Metrics like heart rate, heart rate zones, vertical speed and burnt calories will help you pace yourself so that you can keep going all day and not burn out all your matches too early.

These, along with features like the estimated time of arrival, sunset alert, and a long battery life, will help you keep going from dawn till dusk – and beyond.

Personalize your riding experience

A bike is such a versatile creation, that it’s no wonder some call it the freedom pony. You can ride however you like from gravel roads to bike commutes and mountain bike trails to epic bike packing trips – and Suunto will be there supporting you by your side.

Highlights for personalization & versatility

Customize your sport modes

Different ride, different needs: Create custom sport modes for your rides with Suunto app.

Customize your sport modes

There are endless combinations of different screen layouts and data fields and, even though your Suunto watch already has multiple different cycling and mountain biking sport modes, you can still create your own.

You may, for example, want to see different data during your commute, an interval session and a bike packing adventure. During your commute you may want to focus on your speed and the time of day, an interval session calls for some lap averages and summaries and on a long ride the distance to the next waypoint or the estimated time of arrival may come in handy.
