The CooSpo is another great and affordable chest heart rate monitor. Like many of the other options here, it allows you to connect to devices via both Bluetooth and ANT+ pairing and has inbuilt compatibility with Wahoo, Peloton, Zwift, and other fitness apps.
The chest strap is made of a soft textile that ensures a snug fit while conforming to the shape of your body, allowing you to be as mobile and agile as you like during training.
Ease of use is a big factor in the CooSpo as it is relatively small, making it easy to take on and pull off, while the adjustment buckle makes it easy to fit to your body, too. It has compatibility with a wide range of smartphones, tablets, GPS’s and computers, as well as various workout apps meaning it makes it easy to transmit workout data to whatever method you’re tracking it by.
It typically has a significantly lower price point than some of the others listed here, too, making it a great budget buy.
However, there have been people who have noted that the battery does die a great degree sooner than other heart rate monitors and the light nature and manufacturing does feel relatively weak compared to others.
But if you’re looking for an inexpensive, entry-level monitor to help you get started, this could be the right option for you.
