    Polar are the most popular. I got the Polar F7 that comes with a chest strap. I got mine from Amazon.co.uk

    It shows your target zone for burning calories but doesn't have GPS. My other half has the Garmin FR60 which comes with the foot peg and chest strap and that calculates the distance and calories burnt.

    They're a little bit pricey but you get what you pay for in quality.
