Suunto Race wristbands

Hello everyone,
Is the Race compatible with normal 22 mm bands? I would like to buy this one:

SUUNTO 22 MM URBAN 7 SILIKONARMBAND
OCHRE SIZE S

Do you have any recommendations? Which ones do you use?

Greetings
Vil

@laufbursche7 Yes, any 22m strap should work. I have a few leather ones which I like to wear through the day and then a variation of coloured silicone bands that I use for training and racing

I like that orange on your link, looks great. Oh and a thumbs up for quick release pins too, I can’t be bothered with fiddly spring bars these days

@laufbursche7 I have a question about the standard band, it seems it has the same little “pin” like the S9PP. This pin drove me crazy there, every time I took my backpack, it got unstuck. In other occasions too. Is this now better with the Suunto Race?

@jannis I used it for 2 weeks without an issue 24/7. I don know have a nylon Velcro which is really good for me

@jannis I can’t say anything about it until Thursday. Then my Race Titanium arrives.

@MiniForklift Thank you for your feedback, I just bought the wristband.

@David-l Well, yes, it seems on the reviews back then about the S9PP, not everybody had this problem but quite many people. Like I have said, it happened for me several times the day, and it was very annoying. I hope Suunto changed this mechanism now a bit.
