No matter what type of bike product your buying, from the simple accessories through to the full setup of your custom built road bike, there are lots of important considerations that you should take into account, especially when you’re shopping online and unable to test the product first. This is especially true when you’re buying products like Heart Rate Monitors.

Our aim is simple, help you get the very best products for your budget. Whether that’s Garmin VivoSmart HR+ GPS Activity Tracker or an alternative, we’ll do our best to find you unbiased, genuine customer reviews to help you make your decision.

The next stage we went on to, was to look at the price of products from the brand: Garmin. The average price was £232.29 and we found that the price varies right from as little as £8.99 up to £764.99 with Garmin products.

And finally we thought it would be good to give you an idea of Garmin products that appear specifically in the Heart Rate Monitors category.
