My Garmin HRM strap has given up the ghost. It's not something I use all the time, mainly on the TT during the winter to try and give some structure to my workouts. Any reason not to go for [url= http://www.decathlon.co.uk/ant-cardio-belt-cycle-computer-accessory-id_8181212.html ]this Decathlon one[/url] (other than it being out of stock currently?). Needs to be Ant+.
Should work
Is it just the strap or the unit bit that clips onto the strap that isnt working? I went through a few garmin straps eventually they were out of the warranty period and werent replacing for free anymore so ended up getting a polar wearlink strap instead and attaching the garmin ant+ unit to that and it works fine.
as above, polar one (strap only) is fifteen quid from wiggle and solved my problem - just plug garmin sender unit in
If you're going to get a new HRM anyway then you may want to check out a [url= http://www.powertap.com/collections/powercal/products/powercal ]PowerCal[/url] (as is being discussed on [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/does-anyone-use-a-cyclops-powercal-power-meter ]this thread[/url].) Not that much more cash than a HRM and some people do find the additional power estimation related features useful. A couple of interesting reviews [url= http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/11/cycleops-powercal-in-depth-review.html ]here[/url] and [url= http://bikehabit.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/cycleops-powercal-versus-quarq-is.html ]here[/url].
I need the whole unit, not just the strap. And I don't want a whole new HRM, the GPS unit is absolutely fine, I just need an Ant+ strap to link up with it.
