Hi, could you tell me please which HRM straps are suitable for Tacx turbos. I am using a Cosmos, I would like one which has a replacable battery without having to send it back to the manufacturer. Saw one on Ebay but missed the sale it was made by Bremshey but I can't find them on line.

    I use a Polar coded HRM belt on my Flow, if that helps?

    Cheers,

    Ciclosport or Cardiosport non-digital - both take a replaceable CR2032
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    another Chris using a coded Polar HRM sensor here. Seems to work ok but needs plenty of sweat to send proper readings to the display. Batteries are easy to change but this hasn't helped with the sensitivity.

    I guess I can assume that the HRM from my Garmin 705 won't work??
