Recommendations for bra with heart monitor

Triathlon Forum

My wife is looking into getting a sports bra with the built-in heart rate monitor. Have any of you tried these? Any recommendations on one brand or another?

I know that people have had varying results … but i love my mio wrist band heart rate monitor. No more sliding HRM up and down and trying to shove it under the bra. No more bandaids and other anti-chafe kludges. no more worn out elastic where the only option is replacing the whole shebang. And as an inconsistent sweat-er … no more weird drop outs. I hope they come out with an update that enables longer battery life.

get this! http://www.scosche.com/rhythm+
my husband just got one for me. for the past few years i have been suffering wearing a heart rate chest strap. there is no comfortable way for a woman to wear that thing under a sports bra. it constantly cut into my chest and left scars. the scosche is relatively new technology but has gotten rave reviews. pairs with bluetooth and ant+. So it transfers my HR data to strava and my garmin 310xt and can be paired with trainerroad as well.

I hate chest straps. I love my Mio Link.

Thanks! It sounds like my wife will be going with a Mio Link or something similar instead of the sports bra. I appreciate the feedback.
