It would be good to see these on someones wrist to get an idea of scale. From what I've heard they are still quite large. Has anyone got any other images?

205 is also £194.94 with globalpositioningsystems.co.uk and you get free delivery.

305 is £251.96 as well... looks like they're price matching Sporttek. If anyone sees a cheaper price please post here. I'm thinking about getting a 305 but £250 is a bit out of my reach at the minute.

They look great (\i've got the 301 now) but what i really want is a combination of the above and the 305 bike computer with cadence and mapping for those of us who do tri.

I want - but justifying the cost is probably not going to happen. Might just buy Gumps 301 when he upgrades.

Taken from the Garmin website...

Monitor your pedaling cadence as you ride with the purchase of the GSC 10. Like the heart rate monitor, this self-calibrating, wireless speed/cadence sensor uses the same robust wireless technology to measure and report your pedaling strokes per minute.
