No, Garmin cycling computers don't have a WAAS option. Probably WAAS will drain the battery too quickly for cycling and since one is mainly on roads and marked trails the accuracy is good enough. Roadies and gravel riders aren't going to go looking for geocaches anyway, especially if they're on a Strava segment.

All Garmin handhelds have a WAAS option AFAIK. All Garmin handhelds have a cycling mount additional option so you can mount them on your handlebars and use it as a cycling computer at least for speed and location. I think this makes sense in the Garmin lineup given how the units are expected to be used.
