Hi All, I have a Garmin 705 Edge and I would like to buy an heart rate sensor and a cadence sensor. Do you know if the 705 is compatible with any Garmin sensor in the market?

And eventually, if I use my bike in the rolls, could I adda speed sensor like this to the 705?

Thanks!

    No, you need the older magnetic GSC10. The 705 doesn't have the correct ant+ profiles for individual sensors

    Any ANT/ANT+ HRM should work, but you'd need a ANT+ combined speed/cadence sensor

    Is it worth spending money on while it's being temperamental?

    Mines dead - not sure about the original posters.

    His isn't connecting properly to his PC, though he seems to have resolved that now.

    Hi all, I have found a cardio Garmin ANT+. On the advert says compatible with edge 500 and 800, doesnt state 705. Should be however, right?

    ANT+ is a protocol, so should work.

    any ant + with the 'hr' profile should work with the 750

    for instance...
