Garmin Forerunner 50 - TWO WORDS sum this up - - - - "FANTASTIC VALUE"
This is what BHIP Ltd © 2008 have to say about the Garmin Forerunner 50
VALUE FOR MONEY, that's the first thing we must say about the Garmin Forerunner 50. The Garmin Forerunner 50 is simple to use and simple to download data to your PC. Easier than any other HRM we have used. All the essential data is on two clears lines of display.
IDEALLY suited for TRIATHLETES : The Garmin Forerunner 50 has the ability to seamlessly switch between FOOT POD and BIKE POD to aid simple and effecient transitions. All the user needs to do is press LAP/SPLIT at the time of transition to record BIKE/RUN data - distance, heart rates, average speeds etc. You don't even actually have to do that, it will switch from BIKE POD to FOOT POD and vice-versa with NO USER intervention. The more we play with the Forerunner 50 - the more it blows us away how much it does!
You really have to look hard at what you are getting here. For under £60 you have a digitally coded heart rate monitor with laps and split memory recall - AND a FREE USB ANT "blue tooth" style download facility INCLUSIVE. So for under £70 you have a heart rate monitor with FULL PC download, either to your local PC using Garmin Training Centre software, or to online Garmin Connect service to share your experiences with other. Compare that to other makes and models and you will see it is about £50 cheaper, at least!
