I am looking into getting the new ambit 3 by Suunto for my triathlon training but it is all Bluetooth, anyone know good Bluetooth accessories for speed cadence / power / heart rate????

Stages power meters support bluetooth.

PowerTap has a BT end cap for the G3 hubs which will provide power, speed and cadence. There are plenty of BT HRM including the Suunto Ambit 3 heart rate monitor ;)

Can always do what I plan on and get an Ambit2S on steep clearance and get ANT+ compatibility as well. The only new trick of the Ambit3 is the HR while swimming, only while using their strap, which I keep hearing people say falls back to their waists.
The point is, ladies and gentleman, that speed, for lack of a better word, is good. Speed is right, Speed works. Speed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.

Mio Link is a Decent Heart Rate monitor with Bluetooth.

Email directly from Cyclops, to update my SL+ to Bluetooth requires a full rebuild to a G-series, $450. It just became a winter training wheel for TrainerRoad. My Ambit3 is on order because new tech inspires me to train.
The Suunto does come with an HRM strap, for like $50. So the question becomes with sensor for cadence. I think Wahoo makes one.

I've been using the Wahoo Blue SC for a year now and it's worked great for speed and cadence. For HR I use their TICKR Run, which gives HR and also run cadence, which maybe you don't need with the Ambit (I have no idea). I've also had no problems with it.
