Garmin 010-10889-00 Forerunner 305/205 Quick Release Kit Review

Garmin 010-10889-00 Forerunner 305/205 Quick Release KitThis kit contains a velcro wrist strap with a sturdy plastic mounting clip.The original strap pieces are permanently removed using the supplied tool, then the strap pins are replaced into the 305 body. The pins can then clip into the mount on the velcro strap, or the identical part of the bike mount.Removing the unit from the bike and putting it on your wrist, or vice-versa, takes less than 5 seconds.
The reviewer who said you have to take several minutes to re-attach the original wrist straps after taking the 305 off your bike seems to have failed to grasp the concept; the velcro strap *permanently* replaces the original straps.
The only potential downside I can think of is that the clip on the velcro wrist strap could hang up on long sleeved clothing, like a wetsuit, so triathletes will want to put the strap on during T1.Other than that, this is a very handy piece of kit!
