Suunto 2.50.26 – Q4 2025 Release Notes
-
@2b2bff yes you’re right, I have a physiological max heart rate that is reached during running (in my case 184). But when I cycle, I know that I can never reach this max heart rate and 174 would be my max for this sport. That’s why for any cycling profile I have to set a different max heart and different zones according to this knowledge to reflect the real effort and recovery metrics that are dependent.
-
@Raphes67 so what is the problem? MaxHR is maxHR that is the limiti, also Suunto allows to change cycling zones to reflect your ability to only reach lower HR for cycling.

@aiv4r
Hi, in this latest update (in my particular case), when you change or modify the Maximum Heart Rate for cycling, it also modifies the heart rate for other sports (running, default, etc.). This could be a bug to consider. I think I’ve modified it in previous updates, and each sport had its own custom heart rate zones…
Hence all these tips, contributions of maximum heart rate in different disciplines… -
@Elmiuel yea I do not think it is a bug, maxHR is maxHR and I think suunto focus on one physiological maxHR (it is only one). So when changing zones in cycling just change zone limits themselves not the mac HR. I think it is supposed to work like that.

I use customized sport modes and in two of them I want to be able to see “Lap Duration” while exercising:
Up until this latest update it has worked fine, but now I get no real-time lap data on the watch (9PP) when in spinning class (Indoor cycling). It does, however, work correctly in the Walking sport mode. When spinning, I start new laps when transitioning from warm-up to exercise, and then again when transitioning from exercise to cool-down. Yet no matter how many new laps I start Lap duration continues to be equal to Duration. Curiously, when I synch with SA I can see the duration of each of the three laps in the app, so the data is being recorded correctly in the watch, just not displayed real-time on the watch.
Is this a bug? Is anybody else having this problem?

I don’t know whether there is any change for vertical 1 on the oHR … but on Thursdays I walk around a path waiting on a relatively steady pace … some times I record it … same watch , same strap , similar conditions , properly worn … but look at the oHR variability with the new firmware … I have never seen anything like it
New one
Old one

@thanasis do you have a chest strap for measuring HR? I have one, maybe this weekend i can do a test with:
OHR with new firmware (Race S here)
Chest-strap with stravaand record with both application the same exercise, and let’s see how far the HR measurements are drifting?
-
@brechtvb yes I have and using them when needed (running , trailing , tennis etc ) but not for walking .
But having such a volatile numbers is somehow odd to me
-
@thanasis hello, yes it is. But when having simultaneous measurements, the numbers cannot be disputed.
-
@brechtvb you are right . I can do that .
