I just bought a new computer that is dual wireless for cycling fucntions as well as cadence. I will be putting it on my new bike when it arrives - however I just had someone tell me they thought they devices were having a lot of trouble with interference form heart rate monitors. Of course I understand this could happen as many things can cause interence. I use a Polar S210 watch heart rate monitor. I was hoping someone could comment on this who ACTUALLY is using this setup today or something VERY similar. do you coccasionally have trouble or do you ALWAYS have trouble. BOTH vendors claim to have "coded" signalling and the like to prevent this. In addition when and if you have troulbe is it only on group rides or even when it is just when you are riding alone.

Thanks for the info - I would like to know if I should consider another if this problem happens alwasy and there is a better solution to get all the data.

Maybe try changing the signal's frequency? I believe there is something in that tome they call a "manual" I'm just back from vacation, so that kinda stuff is not fresh in my mind.

Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.

I also have trouble with interference. But the Cateye seems to work well, it's the HRM that gives false readings...like a hr of 235!
