Just cranked up the Polar M450 in advance of a big ride tomorrow.
I had 10 minutes of messing about and paired it to a 4iiii Viiiiva V100 heart rate strap. Fine it’s Bluetooth, no big surprise there.
Of course the V100 is also an ANT+ bridging device.
Nice surprise as the V100 sent my Favero bePro’s power and cadence data (ANT+) straight through to the Polar M450 (Bluetooth only).
Super cool. Here’s the proof. I’ll have to work on the more esoteric power measurements and L|R balance that the bePro also supports.

Nice move.
Nice.
Could we hope the same to happen for V650 (and V800)? This is likely related to a recent update, isn’it ?
Ty for the news
this will probably already work with the V650 and V800. I think if you read my RFLKT+ review someone has already achieved the result with the V800 via the RFLKT (would be the same via the 4iiii I expect)
