Polar RS800CX Explanation of various models New "N" versions CHROME look Original GREY models New "N" versions CHROME look

IMPORTANT - if the unit name ENDS in an "N" ~ that is the new 2010 CHROME edition... we have a few of the "older" models left in stock 2008 models Polar RS800 ~ RS800SD ~ RS800G3 (obsolete) 2009 models Polar RS800CX Bike ~ RS800CX Run ~ RS800CX multi (obsolete) 2010 models Polar RS800CX Bike N / RS800CX Run N ~ RS800CX multi N [all these models are BLACK / CHROME finish] - an explanation of the different available models. OK - let's start with the important stuff. A Polar RS800 (2008 models ~ without the CX suffix) is NOT the same as a Polar RS800CX. A Polar RS800 can only support either the G3 GPS pod (RS800G3) or the S3 stride sensor (Polar RS800SD) - A Polar RS800, RS800SD or RS800G3 can NEVER support the BIKE speed or bike cadence sensors. Only the new Polar RS800CX / CX N can do this. The RS800CX (2009) was a direct REPLACEMENT for obsolete RS800(RS800SD/RS800G3). The RS800CX (and RS800CX N 2010) is a multi sport unit and it can support ALL of the WIND devices (except Power) - that includes G3 GPS, S3 stride sensor, WIND bike speed and WIND pedal cadence. In 2010 Polar added a CHROME effect finish to the line up - if it ends in a "N" it is the new CHROME FINISH unit..... The product range for the Polar RS800CX is as follows: Polar RS800CX N - comes with WIND Wearlink chest strap - but no accessories. Customers can add run, bike and/or GPS components as they wish at a later date. CHROME and non-CHROME versions available... Polar RS800 CX RUN (sale) and Polar RS800CX RUN N - comes with WIND Wearlink chest strap AND the Polar S3 stride sensor for RUNNING speed, distance and pace . Customer can add G3 GPS and/or bike / pedal sensors at a later date.CHROME and non-CHROME versions available... Polar RS800CX BIKE N- comes with WIND Wearlink chest strap AND the Polar WIND bike speed sensor for CYCLING speed and distance. Customer can add G3 GPS, S3 running stride sensor and/or pedal cadence sensors at a later date.CHROME and non-CHROME versions available... Polar RS800CX BIKE N - (now in stylish CHROME finish) comes with WIND Wearlink chest strap AND the Polar G3 GPS sensor - for people undertaking ANY outdoor sport that requires speed and distance feedback, plus GPS mapping / tracking. Customers can add the running S3 stride sensor and/or bike sensors at a later date
