I have often wondered why a watch can't be your HR belt all in one, put it around your wrist and it should pick up your pulse, anyone know?

The difference between winning and losing is most often ... not quitting!

You do get a few wrist hrm but they wont work for cycling,as you will need to,take your hands off the bar and your eyes off the road to look at hrm.Try looking at your watch on your wrist instead of hrm on the bars.

They are also not as accurate as the chest strap type that works direct off your heart beats,chest type are almost as accurate as a ecg.
