sampie Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 does the 705 give power? Think you have to do that one yourself
biscuit Posted October 29, 2008 Author Posted October 29, 2008 There've been a couple of topics recently about the 705. I also posted a write-up comparing it to the Polar S725 - this would give some ideas of the features and pitfalls.If you do get one' date=' I strongly recommend downloading and using SportTracks rather than the Garmin Training Centre software. The only downside to ST (and the reason I still occasionally use GTC) is that it doesn't display the Garmin maps.As far a problems are concerned, I've recently been having an intermittent fault where it does not pick up any reading from the cadence/speed sensor. [/quote'] where is the write up?comparison???

Cruxpearl Posted November 5, 2008 Posted November 5, 2008 Has anyone succesfully paired the 705 with a SRM? Yep, It says it has succesfully paired, but I don't know where to set the SRM offset yet?
