I'm looking for a new HRM with cycling features that allow me to download information to my computer for analysis. I've narrowed it down to the Polar RS800CX and the Suunto T6c. Does anyone have anyexperience with either? Thanks for your input.

The T3, though. I really like it, though I do have some criticisms. The alarm is almost too soft for intervals and the display is virtually impossible to read at night. It has a backlight that works well, but you cannot keep it on for extended periods. I haven't downloaded any information off of it, but I've heard good things about their gps programs, so I imagine their other stuff is at least ok. I like that I can mount it to the handlebars or just keep it on my wrist (I've never had a problem using it like that).

Here's a review of both of them (http://runtotri.blogspot.com/search/label/T6c). Author likes both but prefers the Polar

I don't own a T6 but do own a T3 and a RS800CX if you have any specific questions
