Ah ok - well stay tuned...we are actually coming out with an adapter set which has a Polar-compatible insert and you will simply be able to swap out the Garmin insert for the Polar one :) Roughly early August for availability.

Anyone ever run the Kompact system upside down? I love the ease of the Kompact but find my face right in the bottle when riding.I did something like that on my P5.
Bottle and Garmin were both up too high overall for my liking, so I removed the cage from the baseplate, flipped it over, reinstalled the cage, and mounted it from the underside of my extensions.
Now the bottle is nestled quite low & snugly in there, and the baseplate is probably acting like a bit of a fairing, since my extensions are angled upwards a decent amount.
Only "downside" is that XLAB on the Velcro straps now reads upside down.
float , hammer , and jog

Was racing in Philly this weekend and some of the roads were a bit bumpy. My kompact bottle was ejected and I could do nothing but watch it skid across the road in front of me and into the woods. I really liked this set up until I lost the bottle. Is there any chance of getting a sturdier cage and new bottle somehow?
