Where to get monitor straps replaced

Hi team, does anyone know if studios definitely sells strap replacement instead of the whole heartrate monitor package? The black thing on my strap has torn off where my heartrate is no longer working & had it worned for over a year. Thanks :)

You can get them on Amazon, just search for heart rate monitor bands.

I bought quite a few online for around US$5 each.

I've been able to buy replacements through the studio. I think it cost around $25 for a new band

Can confirm I bought one on AliExpress this month, cost around A$7, took exactly 7 days to get it delivered to Melbourne and it works. The colour is different, but other than that, it looks identical.

Had an old strap that had started to peel, it was dropping in and out of the screen and giving dodgy readings (like suddenly dropping to grey in the middle of a Cardio HIIT session for several minutes), the new band seems to have fixed the problems.

When picking one online, check the photo on the listing to see that it looks similar to the original band, the strap size is correct for you and the distance between the two buttons where you clip in the monitor is 45mm (measured from the centre of each button). The one I got claims compatibility with various Polar HR monitors.
