Where do you draw the line?
I was looking for a bike computer with cadence and a heart rate monitor. I went to the LBS and decided to buy a Polar S725. It cost me $410.00 with cadence and the IR interface. They installed it for free. I see the same unit without the cadence and IR interface for $290.00 on E-Bay. Where do you draw the line with LBS’s?

This is a little deceiving. You have a base unit but also have to buy the cadence and if your computer doesn’t has an IR interface it cost you extra. I don't think it's out of line.

Probably on target as far as price. Nothing is cheap my friend.
