Triathlon Gear Reviews

The best tool to track your workouts and HR. When combined with the Polar cadence, speed, and foot pod the S625X is the best HRM on the market.

The Polar S625X is like having a performance lab with you on every workout. All the heart rate, running and cycling data you will ever need is available right on your wrist. The S625X delivers continuous running speed without relying on where satellites are positioned. With the optional cycling and power sensors and enhanced training tools like the Polar OwnOptimizer™ recovery test, plus altitude and ascent for route profile, the S625X lets you cross train and put the power of information to work for you.

I used to use a Bell Motivator Trainer but now I have a Kurt Kinetic. My Bell was $90 and for the extra 150 to get the Kurt I got silence. My Bell was really loud and my new trainer is smooth and quiet. It's a darn good buy.

wouldn't recommend because of comfort issue. causes numbness after 1+ riding

I realize that most of the things I complained about on this bike are easily replaceable components, but as I bought it on eBay this was how it came.

Any trainer is priceless during winter months to maintain cycling strength. The quality and durability of this trainer make it seem worth the price.

For a rider serious enough to want to get all their power to the pedals but on a tight enough budget to not splurge for some $400 Sidi's I think they're well worth it.

Great bars for a great value

I would recommend this trainer to anyone - I would definitely shop around, there is a huge discrepancy in pricing of this trainer at different shops and on the internet.

I bought these fins due to a very poor whip kick. Each kick moved me only 6". Using these fins I received immediate feedback on the proper position of my feet during the kick - wrong position gave me no propulsion. These fins resulted in some injury since I have never moved my legs in this manner. My knees and thighs hurt so much after two days use that I took a week off from running and biking. Go slow if you have never attempted the whip kick. These fins are great for the designed purpose - breaststroke.

Would definitely recommend the product to others who are looking to get off road training in on their own bike and don't want to break the bank doing so.

Love riding this bike and enjoy that yellow is not involved in the red/blue wars!

Like many finding a balance between work, home and training is not easy but rather than disappointing my daughter and getting disapproving looks from her mother when I mention going for a ride I get big smiles all round. Not for every ride but to keep things moving surely its better to be out there doing something rather than being at home doing nothing?

Overall I am very happy with the RS400. Its proven to be very reliable and accurate with the readings its given me.

Overall I look forward to OWS now that I will be in a Tri suit instead of an old surfing suit.

Training in N.C. during the spring and summer can get hot so I purchased 2 of these bottles for training. These bottles keep liquids much cooler, much longer than standard water bottles. They work great. The only downside is that when the bottles "jump" out of your cages you have to turn around and get them because they are a bit more $ than a standard bottle.

The Polar Bottle's double-wall construction incorporates a thermal barrier of air to keep heat out and keep cold in.
In addition, a foil layer reflects solar rays for additional protection.
Wide mouth opening for easy filling
Soft rubber bite valve for comfortable hydration
Keeps liquids cold twice as long as conventional water bottles.
Dishwasher safe
24 or 20 ounce bottle

A good solid shoe for under $100. The Radius 7 is intended for slight and late-stage over-pronators. The MoGo midsole delivers an improved heel-to-toe ride, smooth stability, and maximum spring per step.
