Garmin Forerunner 45

[JKMTB_]

Hi everyone.

 

I am considering buying this watch to track my MTBing. (if that's the phrase)

 

I am wondering what your thoughts are on this watch. Can this watch be used for indoor biking eg.gym bike?

Also are there any other options to consider?

 

Thanks

I bought the 45s for my son and to be honest I'm really impressed with it...

 

Good quality, all the latest software that the top end units have got like body battery, stress level, etc...

 

Some of which I don't even have on my fenix 5x plus...

 

But I don't think it has some other stuff like Garmin Pay, music, etc...

 

My son loves and uses it for MTB, running and waking but not indoor so I've never looked to see what extra sports we can add but that's easy to check online...

 

The GPS is good and locks on very quickly... Great colour screen with customisable screens... Battery lasts him only a few days (4-5) but its super quick to charge - no more than 60 minutes...

 

Interesting that through a school day he'll easily do 10k - 15k steps...
