Don’t let anything hold you back, not even a chest strap. Pairing the popular M460 GPS computer with the powerful OH1 optical heart rate strap, Polar gives you the tools to take your training to the next level. Building on the success of the M450, the M460 offers better power meter integration, smart notifications, gradient info, and Strava live segment integration directly to your handlebars. See your performance in the moment, compare it to your PR and the current KOM or QOM, and see results once the segment is complete. The M460 even shows proximal Strava segments while you're riding (Strava Premium required). Essential training metrics like speed, distance and elevation are right there when you need them. The included OH1 optical heart rate monitor brings calories and pulse data to your training, without the need to wear a chest strap. Combined with Bluetooth Smart sensors (not included), this trick unit can also cover power and cadence. Satellite pre-loading via Polar Flow gives you fast and accurate GPS tracking so you can make the most of your Strava Premium membership. Smart notifications let you know when the digital world needs your attention. Customizable data fields (up to 4 per page) display your stats to help you ride better, faster and smarter.
