I can connect it to my pc and download / upload routes etc, but the only drawback is it doesn't support ant so I wear a separate HR monitor watch and there is no cadence support at all.
Trying to stay on budget and it looks like the RFLKT with cadence is $140. If I went this route I would then have to spend $60 on a new HR monitor, but could use the phone for routes, calories burned etc etc. Would I also have to purchase a speed sensor?
Also on the music side how load does the RFLKT play music? Could I hear it in traffic?
Actually, probably wouldn't have to update any sensors. The RFLKT+ has an ANT+ bridge built it. It will pick up the ANT+ sensors and bridge it to Cyclemeter (or other such app) on your iPhone. While I haven't tested it (I have all BT sensors now), it should be able to connect all your ANT+ sensors to the iPhone. Be worth a try and I bet it works. I know that Cyclemeter on the iPhone supports the ANT+ bridge.
Note that Wahoo Fitness offers a RFLKT and a RFLKT+. The plus version is the one that has temp, barometric sensor and the ANT+ bridge.
Neither RFLKT plays music, they can control the music on your iPhone that is stashed in your pocket. It plays the music and you listen to that anyway you can.
