Polar RS800 vs Suunto Ambit???

[eddiedutoit]

Im looking into upgrading my HRM.

I have used both Polar and Suunto brands before but would like some advice.

Im a MTBer and do some gym based and outdoor training as well.

I am starting training for Cape Epic 2013 and need some advice on which one to get.

I want something to track as much stuff as possible, HR,incline, accents, speeds, maps etc

Any tips welcome

Thanks

I have had the rs800cx for close ob a year now and have been extremely happy with it. Has not let me down yet.

You'll get alot of opinions re. Polar vs. Garmin as well, at the end of the day, it comes down to personal preference i guess.

If you get the gps along with the wrist unit, you'll get all the data you need.

I have both and it works like a dream.

Do some research on the net as well.

From what you say you are looking for, I'd go with the Garmin Edge 800.
