For those who like to keep things simple, it measures your current, average and maximum speed and estimates your time of arrival based on your cycling speed. You can add heart rate
(OPTIONAL with transmitter - see CS100) .
For recreational cyclists who want to improve their cycling performance.
Measures heart rate combined with current, average and maximum speed
Determines daily personal heart rate target zones for optimal training
Displays calories burned

Body measurement features:
Polar OwnCal - calorie expenditure - Polar OwnCal calculates the number of kilocalories expended during training. This feature allows you to follow the kilocalories expended during one training session and cumulative kilocalories expended during several training sessions. Some Polar products also estimate the fat-burning percentage (fat% on display), that is, kilocalories expended from fat during a workout which is expressed as a percentage of the total kilocalories burned.
Bike settings - for two bicycles - You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.
Cadence - current, average and maximum - Your cycling cadence stands for your pedaling rate in revolutions per minute (rpm). Cadence is the central factor in improving cycling performance. A higher cadence reduces the force needed for each pedal stroke, and thus improves overall performance. Running cadence measures how many times your either right or left foot hits the ground in one minute. Running cadence is measured as steps per minute. With this feature you can sharpen your cadence and make your ground contact time shorter. This will help you to find a balance between leg power and leg speed.
Bike settings - for two bicycles - You can define settings up to two to three bikes in your training computer. When you start training, you can select the bike with the correct settings for that particular training session.
Distance - training, lap, and total - Distance (km, mi) can be set and measured in several ways. Training distance tells you the distance traveled during a training session. Trip distance tells you the distance from the latest trip reset. Lap distance tells you the distance of one lap. Total distance is the distance accumulated since the last reset. Odometer tells you the cumulative distance which you cannot reset.
Speed - current, average and maximum - Speed (km/h or mi/h) is measured with GPS, footpod, stride sensor or cycling speed sensor.
SpeedPointer - SpeedPointer feature tells you your speed within set speed limits.
Data transfer
Edit cycling computer settings with Polar UpLink Tool and transfer them to your Polar product (UpLink)
Recording features:
Totals - Totals includes your training data starting from the last reset enabling you to follow your long-term training.
Training files (with summaries) - 1
Training features:
Automatic display scroll - Automatic display scroll enables you to alternate between displays automatically during training without a need to remove hands from handle bars. Activating automatic display scroll improves riding safety and comfort.
Automatic lap recording - With this feature you can set your training computer to take laps based on preset distance, for example, every 1 km/mi.
Graphical comparison of two values - This feature enables comparison of two values as graphs during training. For example, you can choose a graphical overview of your heart rate and altitude to see how altitude affects the intensity of your training .
HeartTouch - button-free operation of wrist unit - When HeartTouch is on, different training information during training can be accessed without pressing buttons, for instance, when gloves make pressing buttons difficult, by bringing your training computer close to your transmitter.
Number of laps - 50
ZonePointer - ZonePointer is a visible and moving symbol on the training computer display indicating whether you are inside the pre-set target zone. This feature helps you to reach the desired intensity/pace/speed/cadence targets.
