I have paired it with MapMyRide and Cyclemeter, and it works well with both, I don't know about its functionality with Runtastic.

The wahoo app is pretty amazing. It allows you to customize workouts and which sensors to use. For indoor treadmill use, I have the heartrate monitor, but turn off GPS. For something outside, I like to track where I run so will turn on heartrate and gps. You can set up each workout under a different profile, and customize which displays you'd like to see. I like the one that shows my optimal fat burn heart rate. Oh, I almost forgot you can also set each profile to alert you. I have mine to alert me when my heart rate enters optimal fat burning zone, and also when it leaves it.

Thank you very much, Thom! This helped a lot. I have uploaded 3 rides from the SF Bay Area using gpsies. For those who enjoy their road bikes and the outdoors, visit: http://www.gpsies.com/mapThumb.do?username=mariamonet

The RFLKT works through an iPhone 4S or later via bluetooth 4.0, so if you want to connect a heart rate strap while using the RFLKT, all you need to do is pair the Wahoo Fitness App with the Polar H7. The H7 connects directly to the Wahoo app - no problems!

Hi Poly, I am still getting it up and running but pretty certain that it in itself only measures HR. But why it does that is handy for us who love using our smart phones for strava etc is it will translate all the ANT+ from my garmin tools (Cadence/speed sensor, Power Metre, foot pod) into a bluetooth 4.0 signal for your smart phone to read. Some of these are more or less effective on different Apps, Viii own app will receive and show all this information but for instance Strava won't show reading from the power meter. As i said its still new to me but overall Im happy with it. I looked at DCRainmakers review of the product before buying it and he goes very in depth if you want more info.

Yes, I use Runtastic Road bike on Android (Galaxy S4) and it works great. My favorite app so far. Also connects to Ride with GPS and Wahoo Fitness, although the distances were not calculating correctly. Need to check wheel size under sensor setup.

They just released a new version of the Android app that will work with the RFLKT. Your phone still has to have Bluetooth 4.0 such as the Nexus 4, Nexus 5 etc.The setup with android feels very much beta to me. It took a while and no small amount of fiddling with the apps to get the latest firmware. However once I got everything to work, it has been smooth sailing. Rock solid on rides. No connectivity issues as mentioned in some of the reviews. I put my phone in my back pocket and never give it a second thought.

I have never used it for bicycling, only running, but it should be able to compute speed and distance travelled regardless of whether you are running or on a bike.

Absolutely, its the main reason I got this particular unit. It also works with the DigiFit App, MapmyRide and several others. It also works (now) with many of the machines at the health club (treadmills, spin bikes, ecliptics etc.) The LED's are something new they installed in this model and are a great upgrade. This unit is very stable, they fixed any issues that they had with the Blue. Worth the investment. BTW, if your going to use your iphone while on the bike, its really a good investment to go with the Lifeproof case and the bikemount for the lifproof case. I run the Strava and the Mapmyride program at the same time and mount my phone on the gooseneck.

The RFLKT will pull speed from the GPS sensor on your phone, so speed will be tracked regardless.

I ride my bike a lot and just got the fuel band. To track what I have done on my bike, I use the nike+ Running app thats free and out for IOS and Android. The running app calculates nikefuel during the run and once the run is complete, they all sync up together. That's my work around. I will try the ankle thing and see how that goes.

this device will work with the iphone to read your running strides. it will not work as effective with a bike as the iphone will scan the running stride angle to estimate your running distance. you can use it while riding as long as you run after riding. you may need to calibrate it a second time after riding a bike so the iphone can pick up the correct stride distance. for multi sport devices look into the Suunto Ambit2, with Foot pod/Bike Pod (sold separately). The Sunto watch is a multi useful machine that can be used for almost anything.

The rflkt plus is an ant+ bridge in addition to connecting to your Bluetooth smartphone it acts as an ant+ bridge to allow you to use ant+ accesories such as the garmin with your app. Whether it gives you all the detail or not through your cycling app I do not know but it should at the very least give you the wattage. If your spending 1700 bucks on those pedals I would get the edge 510 to make sure u get all the detail.

Hi Brian. I just bought the mounting kit and is a great accessory. I was very pleased with it. I don't use iBike software, I use my iPhone with Sports Tracker software. Regards, Wlademir (from Brazil)

Thanks BAN. Yeah I'm a hobbyist when it comes to cycling, so I'm sure the GPS will be able to pick me up on the roads . I know there are apps and such for Android / iPhone that do similar things, but I think this looks like a nice unit.

That is the device I use it with the powercal. It has a particular display quirk that shows a cadence of 255 in a cadence window only when you are stationary, if the bike is in motion the cadence shows the correct number including zero if you stop pedaling. It appears to be a bug in the way the 800 interprets data from the powercal. It does not affect the power displayed or the power and cadence saved in the device after the ride is completed or while in motion. I have tested the powercal against a calibrated computrainer and found it to be within 10% albeit with a 10-20 second delay in the displayed power. It seems to work and display best if used in the 30sec power setting on the 800. That is the device I use it with the powercal.
