ichops Posted February 20, 2014 Share must be the camelpak, i never use. got it with my first bike, after 5 rides realized water-bottle is the way to go.Try using a bottle on a multi stage race like Epic in 42 deg C and badly spaced water points ( Circa 2006 Epic !! )You just aint gonna make the stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg29 Posted February 21, 2014 Share I have used a Polar CS300 for over 6 years now, both on road and MTB. They are particularly susceptible to external electro magnetic influence( Train lines, Power lines etc)You have to mount the magnet and transmitter as close as possible to the receiver. Agree, my CS300 is a P.O.S. Never again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
