Is there a bike with built-in computer sensor for heart rate, calorie burn, distance, average speed etc?

I would like to buy a good touring bicycle available with sensors similar to those on some exercise bikes that pick up your pulse from the hand-held grips, give you feedback on your heart rate, the calories you have burned, the distance you have covered and your average speed. Alternatively, is there a good quality and easy to fit add-on to my bicycle, perhaps one that includes satellite navigation?

Unfortunately there are no bikes or wheels with built in sensors. The reason is that everyone likes something different when it comes to this. There are so many aftermarket computers to track mileage, speed, etc. that it may take you a while to figure out exactly what you need. Computers from Cateye are great and offer a full range of cycling measurement. Polar brand adds heart rate monitoring and other measurements of your bodies performance. They tend to be more expensive. There are no integrated GPSs yet. But i’d imagine they are coming down the road.

My personal preference is toward wireless computers. They are easy to install and don’t clutter your bike with more wires.
