    Since I started using my road bike ,I've stopped using headphones and find it easier to cycle without them. I actually discovered my front break was loose because I didn't have them on.Can't see myself ever using them again, it's just to hard to focus on everything with a noise in my ear.

    I'll only use headphones in daylight, won't cycling in the dark with them on. But now that the morning's are brighter and I got my headphones in my bottom bracket creaking and clicking has magically gone away, although I forget to trim the FD quite a lot now.

    Sorry to hijack, but what headphones do you use that don't fall out? My iPhone headphones are useless for popping out :o

    FFS your ears are the problem there not the headphones. Get better ears and stop blaming Apple for your woes.

    The iphone/ipod headphones are notoriously sh*t, they are exceptionally tinny, have little or no bass and they leak like sieves. Another common problem is that they fall out of the ear as there's no rubber or foam padding.

    Most in-ear phones come with a set of rubber covers of different sizes so you can adjust the padding to suit your ears. Even low range seinnheisers or sonys will have 2 or 3 sizes.

    This has been on a random loop in my head the last few spins.



    When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide
    Where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride
    Till I get to the bottom and I see you again.

    If no helmet was a 5% risk listening to music podcast radio while cycling in my opinion would rate at about 75%. particuarly in urban roads.

    Don't use them while cycling but do when running. 30 seconds to mars is great to run to imo. Also if it's cold enough out I use my buff pulled over my mouth and ears to hold the iPod earphones in.

    Hi Lenny...Friz here...

    What I've been doing lately is downloading long ass r&b and hip-hop mixes (2 or 3 hours in length). Not really my top genre for enjoyment, but the length and the constant beat are excellent for cadence.
