I've owned two. Both quit reading after a few months. New batteries didn't help. I tightened the chest band, bought contact gel, nothing. Contacting Polar was a joke. Nobody responded.
I recently bought a Sigma PC15 through Amazon. I LOVE IT. Easy to use, gives me calorie readings, all the heart rate zone readings AND it actually works!I think I paid ~$60, which was cheaper than the Polar I was looking at. You can't accidently erase your information while you're reviewing it - a problem I had with Polar. It gives you lots of opportunities to change your mind.
Oh, and it has a mounting gizmo for your bike handlebars.
