Heart rate monitor help


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi there

 

I have a Garmin heart rate monitor that I pair with my Garmin Edge 500 when out mountain biking.

 

The HRM is Ant+  

 

I'm looking for a wrist option to read heart rate when spinning, using IDT etc. Not interesting in a GPS watch, rather something with a battery life that lasts like a normal watch. One option is the Garmin FR70...although slightly expensive for intended purpose. Garmin Vivofit another option, although very limited functionality and looks slightly gimmicky to me.

 

Any other options/suggestions?

 

Thanks!

What's wrong the Edge 500 for IDT use?

 

Nothing, but I also spin at difference venues, so carrying Edge around not very practical. Fine for home IDT yes.

Looks interesting, but not what I'm looking for at the moment.
