Sorry for the offtopic, but can you explain a bit more about your setup? Which phone app do you use while cycling? Android or iOS?

Not OP but I personally use Strava [1] for Running/Cycling and a Wahoo HR Monitor [2]. Strava works on Android and iOS and is free. Wahoo HR monitor is only $50 and works great.

I'm going to throw in my recommendation for this HRM: http://www.scosche.com/rhythm+

Works with Ant+ or Bluetooth. As accurate as the chest band, but much easier to put on. No CR2032 batteries to deal with.

Did you consider the Polar H7? Seems to get a lot of love and it's about the same price.

I just switched to Strava after using MyTracks for years. It's fine. Android.

I don't use an HRM yet, but I'm about to get one, and that'll be it unless I decide to get a cadence sensor.
