Easy addition!

- Ruben, 19 July, 2023

Very nice to get additional data on your cycling performance so easily! I use a Garmin Edge 830 myself, and the screen can be easily divided to monitor your heart rate as well. Afterwards, you then have clear insight into training effect and lots of extra data in your app! Super addition!

Too short life span in terms of reliability connection to computer or training program

- Edward, 19 January, 2023

Fine heart rate monitor as long as it connects to a bike computer or Taxc trainer / Zwift program. And that's where it went wrong after six months. Now regularly problems with making the connection. And replacing the battery after half a year is on the early side with an average of 10 hours of use per week. And then comes the misery to replace battery, of course lost the supplied torx screwdriver and where to find a new one so quickly. I would like to see this different, as with other garmin products where you can replace battery without tools. And yes, Garmin has those nowadays but that thing costs like € 60 more without real other / better functionalities. pity.

Machine washable strap
Sits comfortably
battery replacement - separate tool needed

Good heart rate monitor with troublesome battery

- Wouter, 11 April, 2022

Happy with reliable and comfortable heart rate band. Worth money.

- Roeland, 26 March, 2022

After my previous heart rate monitor broke I was looking for a new one. Normally I am a fan of Wahoo, but a number of cycling friends had bad experiences with the Tickr (unreliable, randomly failing etc). So I chose this Garmin, despite the critical reviews about the seemingly fragile screws closing the battery compartment. I was surprised when I opened the box and saw that Garmin has changed the design. The screws are no longer Philips standard, but have become less fragile Torcx t5 screws. You even get a matching screwdriver with them. However, as a precaution, I did take the screws apart and smeared them with mounting grease to protect them from sweat before use. You never know. Remember not to overtighten the screws when mounting. Other than that, the heart rate strap is more than excellent. Comfortable. Reliable. Should be for the price, but it's worth it for now.

Unworthy quality from Garmin.

- Karel, 23 January, 2022

Disadvantage. The screws that hold the battery in the sensor are of very poor quality. On the first battery change there was nothing to do but break the fastener and tape it down. Now after about 10,000km in use (so the tape works just as well as the screws...) the strap is also really badly wearing out. Buy a Wahoo Tickr or a Sigma.

Band is comfortable
Easy to wash
Lasts only 10,000km
Screws are wish quality

Frequent no signal at Zwift

- Zwift gebruiker, 18 January, 2022

I purchased this band solely to connect to Zwift via bluetooth. Regularly the heart rate monitor connects but no signal is transmitted. A problem frequently reported on Zwift and Garmin forums. So unfortunately looking for a good alternative.

Excellent quality, only battery replacement proves impossible

- Kenneth, 27 August, 2021

After 4000km of cycling and jogging with this heart rate monitor, it was time to replace the battery. That was a bit of a disappointment because the screws are just too small, even with a suitable screwdriver the screws refused to turn so they are worn out. Rather unfortunate and annoying. Apart from that, this is a very good heart rate monitor, with good quality strap and good connectivity. Don't forget to wet it before use.

Great product, but as long as it works

- Matthijs, 17 August, 2021

Basically a fine heart rate monitor that is pleasant to use. However within 2 years it broke down 2 times, with Garmin admitting that the product does not work optimally (with battery replacement often problems). For the price I have seen better products.

Reasonable heart rate belt.

- Milan, 12 August, 2021

A reasonable purchase. Generally does what it is supposed to do. However, to get an accurate measurement you need to wet the tire beforehand. Also, during longer bike rides the tire sometimes comes loose. Especially during wilder use (turning on etc.0). I've had this happen a few times now during races, which is very annoying.

Accurate display of bpm
Quickly connects to bike computer (ELMNT BOLT)
Wet before use

Worthless product

- Bernhard, 24 May, 2021

I've had it for six months now, nothing but trouble with it, it takes a long time for my app to see it (was never a problem with Wahoo), it regularly loses connection and doesn't come back, rarely was I able to do a full session of sports, putting in a new battery is hardly ever possible, the screws are too small and too tight and can break. Also, the band regularly comes loose.

Works well and you hardly feel it

- Rosalynn, 14 January, 2021

Used it a few times now. Pairs effortlessly with my Garmin Edge 530. Especially while cycling, I don't notice I have it on (was one of my fears beforehand). No chafing marks. Heart rate I can't verify, but feels right to me. I found it nice to see that respiratory rate is also measured. Since I still sometimes want to start too fast, this heart rate monitor is a good tool for me to cycle longer and with more fun.
