Stylish, lightweight heart rate monitor

This is a very good looking watch, mine has a dark face, black rubber strap and white surround and five, round chrome buttons. The surround has some small text on it, but to be honest, its too small to read and is for show only. The face is larger than many sports watches, but is very discrete, and can be set to a dark backlight, so you'd be pushed to know it was an HRM. I happily wear it even on formal occasions.
Its very comortable to wear - the watch is very light, and the rubber strap is soft and pliant - needs tightening a notch before a run though. The heartrate strap is very comfortable and is better made than others I've owned, (Timex and Oregon). The shiny screen is very scratch resistant

Advantages: Compact, Cheap, Robust Disadvantages: Tricky to use
I have owned one of these for about 2 years now, and it is still going strong. It does all the usual cycle computer things, but also displays your heartrate, calories burned, etc. You can also programme to use on 2 separate bikes - very handy, when like me you have two bikes but don't want to shell out for two computers!!
SETUP AND USE
Easy to follow step by step instructions. When it comes to operating the computer unit, this is where you need patience. It takes some practice going through each programme, sub-programme, etc. This is one way that the unit can be kept the size that it is though. Once you have dialled in the settings specific to your bike, day to day use of the computer is easy.
POSITIVES
Large read out.
Back light - can be tricky to use though.....when it's dark.
Compact design.
Wireless speed sensor ...
Advantages: Just like having your own personal trainer Disadvantages: A little tricky to work out to start with
Polar RS100 Heart Rate Monitor
This is the second heart rate monitor that i have bought, the first one was years ago and on the rare occaision it did pick up your pulse it went completely wrong if you were near anything electrical or any other heartratemonitors. Bearing this in mind i was a liitle wary of getting another but i have currently started training to complete a half marathon and depending on how well it goes i may enter a full marathon so i thought it was high time i got myself kitted out.
I have to say, times have definately changed, this monitor just everything you could ever ask (except for the running)!
The Polar RS100 heart rate monitor has its own code to avoid unwanted interference meaning you can be in a room with ten other monitors and yours is the only pulse it picks up
It features an easy press lap ...
