My unicorn - Bluetooth bike computer, non phone-based
Quote | Reply
Has anyone come ou with a bike computer that can display my Wahoo speed/ cadence sensor? Not the one they make that uses your phone - I'd like to race with it.

How about GPS watches - is this a common feature? I know the Garmin 225 doesn't.

Just out of curiosity, why not phone based?

I want to race with it and don't want to have to carry my phone or use it as the head itself.

Suunto makes some bluetooth watches. Check out the Ambit 3.

Suunto Ambit 3 is BTLE enabled (no ANT+) and IMO is a far better device than any Garmin I ever used (310,910)

Looks like that Scosche Rythm is also Bluetooth, so I could get optical heart rate as well!

I guess another unicorn is an optical HR GPS watch that could also pair with my Bluetooth speed/ cadence sensor.

Just going to add for anyone in this boat - it looks like the TomTom Spark Runner 2 does all this, for under $200.

Powertap Joule+ has a Bluetooth/Ant+ enabled version, I use it on my TT bike.

You might want to check your sensor though, most of the wahoo sensors are dual band capable. I have the dual version so I can record metrics on my watch (Ambit) and still get a display on my bike computer through the Ant+ connection.

Too late, but still good to know. I believe the RFLKT needs a phone. Does this one read straight from the sensor?
