Garmin Vivoactive & Wahoo HR Strap?
Anyone know for sure if the Vivoactive will pair with Wahoo Heart Rate strap. From what I have read on Garmin's website, its preferred HR strap links via Ant+. Since Wahoo's strap takes both Bluetooth and Ant+....I would assume it would link. Just trying to find someone who knows for sure before I jump off and buy the Garmin watch.

I already have the Wahoo HR strap. Just trying to decide if I should get the bundled Vivoactive....or if I can connect with what I already have.

If in doubt, take the Wahoo Tickr with you and ask the store if you can pair it up to their display model. But if that's not possible, I would say that it should work without a problem. My friend had a Wahoo Tickr connected to a Garmin 500 for quite some time until he was able to get a steal on Garmin 800 bundle.
