For cyclists · Android

Ride aware. Eyes forward, back covered.

Valeo turns your phone into a focused cycling computer — pair a Garmin Varia radar to see what's coming up behind you, follow a route with a true heads-up map, and record every ride with your Bluetooth sensors.

01 — What's inside

Everything a head unit does.
In the phone already in your pocket.

Bike radar, done right

Connect a Garmin Varia (or compatible) radar and Valeo plots every approaching vehicle on a full-height threat stripe that escalates green → amber → red as cars close in — with an audible beep and an optional floating widget that stays on top of your navigation app.

Heads-up navigation

Import a GPX route and follow a true navigation map — heading-up, tilted, zooming out as you speed up. Stray off course and Valeo draws a line back to your route.

Bluetooth sensors

Pair heart-rate, speed, cadence and power meters over BLE. Lose a sensor mid-ride? Valeo quietly reconnects the moment it's back.

Record anything

Cycling, running, walking or treadmill — distance, pace, elevation, calories and live sensor data on data screens you arrange yourself.

Floating widget

Keep a slim radar + telemetry overlay on screen while you use Maps or Komoot. Adjustable width, with speed and outdoor temperature.

Routes & GPX

Plan a ride by tapping waypoints, or import GPX exported from Komoot, Strava and friends. Open a .gpx straight into Valeo.

Private by default

No account, no ads, no analytics. Your rides live on your device — share to Strava only if you choose to.

02 — Situational awareness

Know what's behind, without looking back.

Valeo speaks the Garmin Varia protocol — and the many radars that emulate it. Every detected vehicle is placed by distance and coloured by how close it is. A calm chirp announces a new approach; a sharper double beep means it's right behind you.

  • Clear — nothing within range
  • Closing — a vehicle approaching
  • Imminent — within 25 metres
