Just purchased a Kickr and Trainerroad subscription. Love it so far. I currently use a Garmin 610 and Garmin HR strap/cadence sensor. The 610 is on its last legs and I'll eventually upgrade to 920xt or equivalent.
To get HR and cadence in Trainerroad am I better off getting the Ant+ Dongle for my iPad and using my existing Garmin devices or going full "Wahoo" which would give me flexibility to use Ant+ with watch outdoors and Bluetooth while on the trainer?
The cost of the options are not that different when you take into account the adapter needed to make the dongle fit the newer IPad connection.
Also like others I am frustrated with the reliability of the Garmin HR strap so if the Wahoo HR straps are more reliable I'd consider making the switch regardless of additional cost. Any thoughts appreciated.
