Question About HRM's
I wanted to know if it's true that you have to wear wires on your chest if you get a HRM watch. Or is it just the watch?

Yeah, it's not a big deal. I wear one on most rides; there are no comfort issues. I vaguely recall reading about a watch-only HRM, but the were questions about accuracy.

chest strap and watch. You forget about the strap within 5 minutes.
