Review on Enhance Your Training Efficiency with Garmin Forerunner Quick Release Kit by Carmen White

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy to use on car mounts

For those who don't know what the kit is, if you plan to use the Forerunner for running AND cycling you will need this kit to mount your device to your Bicycle. You will also need the Velcro strap that comes with the kit. In order to move your Garmin from your wrist to your bike, you need to attach the Garmin to your strap differently than the original strap (like your watch). The kit includes a tool to remove the Garmin from the original. Bracelet. The quick release kit includes both a bike mount and a velcro strap with an easy release mechanism on either side. I like the velcro strap as it fits my small wrists better (5ft 2" female). I've had no issues with the Garmin attached to the bike mount and have been riding off-road, although I haven't had any major damage. I hope that helps explain what a kit is - looking at the options I almost bought a bike mount myself.You can do this, but you have to take your Garmin off the strap every time you want to use it.Need for cycling A separate band to easily use your Garmin for both running and cycling.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
