How reliable are the hand-grip pulse sensors on exercise bikes?

Just wondering as i tried my new exercise bike today and the max i could get the pulse sensor was 116bpm over 15Min's, when im supposed to be exercising at a rate of 160bpm.

Cheers
 
I don't think they are very reliable. I bought a Omron watch that uses the chest band and it works great for the money. They are great to help keep you in the correct fat burning zone. It comes with a holder to mount to the handle bars.
