I want to buy an echelon bike but I'm finding it incredibly hard to understand how it works with heart rate monitors. Can you use a fitbit versa as your heart rate monitor and have it broadcast within the app while you're in a class? If not, how do you do it? Do the bike's come with echelon specific heart rate straps?

Please help? I really want to see my heart rate on screen.

The Echelon can connect to any Bluetooth heart rate monitor or your Apple Watch with an additional piece of hardware called a Watch Link (watchlink.app). Unfortnately, the FitBit Versa can not be connected as a source of real time heart rate, only saving the workouts post ride.
