This is a good idea, I had not thought of this. I like my current HRM, and it works with the cardio equipment at my club so I don't have to always hold onto the handles - not that I will be there very often during cycling season for cardiovascular work. Thanks - I will look into this! I do know that the strap that comes with my Polar F11 watch is coded - "to prevent cross-talk". They do appear to sell the same Wearlink strap that isn't coded, which I will look into.Originally Posted by TxDoc
Is your Polar ANT+? If yes, you could get a computer that reads ANT+ so it would work with your Polar... or, if you need a new strap - buy a computer that comes with a HRM strap - not just Cateye and Sigma, you can look into CycleOps, Garmin... just be careful about those that have 'coded' straps, as they only work with their own. I think CycleOps used to code theirs - so that people would have to buy their straps instead of using those from Timex or Polar... smart business people...
