    Found this in case anyone needs a new HRM with GPS. Can't speak to the Pyle brand as I use Garmin but the price is pretty good.

      You have to register to see the deal. Can you give the details (price, etc.) so we will know if it is worth registering to see it?

          Thanks, I went ahead and ordered it.  I'm currently using my iPhone for GPS and HR monitor but it will be nice to have an option if it is rainy or I want to go lighter or if I want to watch my HR a little closer.  Hopefully it will work.

             Let us know what you think of it. Will be good to get a review of a product other than Garmin.

                I still haven't used the Pyle one that I bought, but I did get it all working and everything.  Just haven't gotten around to using it yet.

                 

                Seems like a decent piece of equipment though.

                 

                I think that one on woot right now is just a HRM, no GPS on it.

                  Bless you, C-R
                  That's a handsome device, and a steal, to boot!
                  Loved the Garmin 305, but let's be honest;
                  They're kinda geeky bricks aside this beauty.
                  Thank you,

                  bf

                    bf,

                     

                    how did your garmin die, btw?

                    every few months or so, I think about buying a 305, but it's so expensive!
