You need a Goldwing with the stereo that gets louder the faster you go circa 1985, or just sing loudly....

Fifty fooking billies for headphones!

How on earth are you going to appreciate them on a bike! Waste of money IMHO. There are others that will fit your ears well enough and do the same job. If they dont then I sure as hell dont want to know about it!

Well, I looked at some tests and stuff and the Shure's were the only ones with really good levels of sound blocking, which is what you want on the bike. If the cheaper ones had done the job as well (according to the research at least), I would have gone for them instead. Waste of time going through loads of cheaper ones finding out they don't work very well, you'd soon spend as much as if you just got proper ones in the first place IMO

I often use them on the bike. The only downside is the flimsiness of the wire - it will wear and break, especially where the cable goes into the earphones.

When I have music on the bike*, these are pretty damn good !

*back when I had a bike
