In partnership with Hammerhead, manufacturer of cycling technology and the Karoo 2 cycling computer, Suunto offers multisport athletes a solution to manage performance tracking, training efforts, and route finding.
Athletes and ride with Suunto watch and Karoo 2 cycling computer to run, swim and hike. The workouts on these devices are visible in the Suunto app for performance analysis and can be shared with 200 other tools to expand performance benefits further.
Hammerhead customers can connect with the Suunto app via Karoo 2 and the Hammerhead Dashboard, gaining access to Suunto Heatmaps for cyclists to follow popular routes.
