Heart Rate Monitor

nellocono

Hi Folks,
I am looking to get a HRM for training and just wondering which you use and find accurate. I have a Garmin 110 and can see that the HRM are about 50 euro on Amazon (not sure where else sell them)...

Would I be best to go with the Garmin one or is there a cheaper alternative?

As you have a 110 you need to get a HRM strap for it only. The soft strap one is a nicer fit I feel. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Garmin-Premium-Strap-Heart-Monitor/dp/B0029M3NSS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352151842&sr=8-1 Free delivery to ireland with that.

I think that link is for a replacement strap only and doesn't include the Heart Rate monitor that clips onto it. The first photo shows the HRM attached but the box shows just the strap.

Should have gone to specsavers, box shows the HRM on the strap also. The boxes for a replacement strap are clear plastic. Box also says Premium Heart Ratio Monitor. This is the replacement strap http://www.amazon.co.uk/Garmin-Replacement-Strap-Premium-Monitor/dp/B00305HOWO/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1352301346&sr=8-7 which is more expensive.
