I have a FR570 47mm and I want to use the ultrafit Nylon bands.
As far as I see, there are no metal spring bars.
But I see on the internet that some people have managed to use them.
Are they compatible with Forerunner 570 ?

Hello,
We do not have ultra fit nylon bands for the Forerunner 570. You will have to go to third party, I know Amazon sells them!
Ask this person , they using with the 570
My logic tells me you just need to get some pins and then it should work (yours has QR pins in the strap so you need separate pins I assume)
Or as suggested you can by nylon bands with quickfit release,
If 570 is the same system as the 970 (which is the model I have atm) it's possible as the picture i linked here.
On the original pin you'll have to pass your nail or something thing to push them back as I show on the picture. Then it slightly pops out and then you can remove it.
After it, you can either use the premounted system strap (which is quick release) or just use the strap only and use the original pins you'll have to set back (to use it just gently push them out of the original rubber band with a tiny stick)
I have tried both and the second method is more elegant but I also like the configuration on the picture !
Yes I have a forerunner 570 small size and used the ultra fit 20mm.
You have to first remove the existing pins from the silicone strap by sliding them back and popping them off.
Then you put them stand alone into the Garmin watch. Once you have the pins in, you can loop the nylon strap. It may seem tough but once the velcro part goes through, the rest of the body slides in easily.
Works well.
