    I'm looking to pick up a heart rate monitor that I can use for running, gym and cycling that can also map distances covered and the likes.

    From looking on Amazon this seems to do the job. There's an add for the bike that can track cadence and a couple of other things too.

    Just wondering if there's any other models that I should be looking at around the €100 mark?

    Thanks

    You are unlikely to get a Forerunner 305 for €100.

    That Amazon price is for the US. You'd have to pay duty and VAT on it.

    Handtec is usually the cheapest, and they're charging about €135.

    Sorry should have said sister is in the U.S at the moment and will be home in a couple of weeks!

    I'll have a look at the Handtec too. Thanks.

    I have a 305, I think its a great bit of kit, I import the GPX files to Ridewithgps as the maps and stats are better.
