Suunto textile strap on 9 Peak Pro

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

I use the same strap only! the best feeling. Sometimes OHR can get a little affected , but who cares when you MTB

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Thanks. Ill likely get one, but don’t want to commit until my actual Slate Ti arrives. DHL Express tracking still in the dark.

I like this ones. It’s elastic with clever adjustment

Fully agree, I use it, too with a S9. Great wear and great value.

@Shrek3k does it improve wrist HR reliability?

[DMytro]

@halajos a tad, less annoying spikes and less cadence lock for me.

As @DMytro said, it improves it. HR reliability for me is quite good with the regular straps already - if tightened properly - this strap makes it even more reliable, but mostly it is much more comfortable to wear and adjust.

@Shrek3k although I want to warn that pins aren’t great. They have a strange desing that allows to remove them by pulling on the watch in a certain way. On multiple occasions (especially if tightened loosely) the watch fell from my wrist because I was trying to put on a backpack and my watch has caught on the backpack handle.

@DMytro
that would be a reason for me not to buy it.
If you loose a watch while hiking, skiing, running, you might notice.
If you loose it on the mtb, chances are low to find it in the forest… if you loose it in water sports, in a lake or sea, byebye forever

[DMytro]

@freeheeler indeed. You have to change the pins or be mindful of where you wear it.
I would def not wear it swimming, disregarding the pins even, hook and loop is not purposed for this. I noticed it conflicts with gloves a bit.

But for day to day it’s fine and you just have to be careful with backpacks - the only case I found where pins aren’t great.
