Does anyone make a HR monitor with bike mount? I don't need it to do anything else. Just display HR and mount to the bike. Oh, the chest strap needs to have a replaceable battery.

Thanks in advance for suggestions.

Most people just wrap a watch-style HRM around their handlebar. Some HRMs come with a little rubber piece to make them fit securely on a handlebar, or you can buy the rubber thing for a few dollars.

I use a one inch section of pipe insulation on my handlebars. HRM goes on there instead of my wrist. I just have an inexpensive Polar FS2 from REI. You can see my super cheap mount here on my 84 Schwinn Voyageur.
