Comment posted how many calories are burned during a 45 min spin class? by xangelfacex.

That's a good question. You know how they have pedometers for walking? I saw in the store recently that they have the same for biking. It should also be able to tell you how many calories you lose in that time as well.

  • Get a heart rate monitor – that's the most accurate way to tell.

    You can also try www.caloriesperhour.com which will tell you how many calories you can burn doing certain exercises, but it's just a guesstimate based on your height/weight/age. HRM is the way to go. I have a Polar F6 and love it.

  • Heart Rate Monitor?
    Take a look at the Omron HR 100C heart rate monitor. It is one of the best selling heart rate monitors on Amazon. It is quite inexpensive at around $30 on Amazon and delivery is free. The Omron comes with a chest strap and a wrist watch. It is popular for people using a heart rate monitor for the first time.

  • Bike computers?
    Check out the cyclocomputers on Nashbar.com. They always have something going on. I have always liked Cateye. They have been around forever. I still use the wired computer I got back in the early 80s. Nashbar has the Cateye CC-HR200DW (heart rate/wireless) on sale for $140, or if you want to splurge, the Garmin GPS is less than $200. I have a separate GPS unit I can use for other things besides biking, but it is nice to have a all-in-one unit. Just knowing the elevation is helpful. The things you list that are necessary to you, you can get for around $40+ (regular price) or $25+ (on sale). Good luck.

    here's another one that's even cheaper, though it only gives you your heart rate:
