Sorry for the bad wording in the title.

For years I’ve used some ear buds which are unfortunately not available anymore.

I’ve bought some others recently and while they are fine for ‘static’ use, they’re unusable while driving, because the air stream causes really bad noise.

So question to my fellow cyclists: Do you use some bluetooth ear buds, most preferreable with this sort of neck cable, that ‘stay silent’ while driving? Brand and model would be very much appreciated.

Thanks and drive save!

    Not ear buds, but have you tried any bone- conduction headphones?

    Have you bought noise canceling? I know wind messes with them so they usually end up amplifying the “wind” noise

    I can’t use any earbuds that have that silicon tip or I can’t hear my surroundings.

    I donno if that’s what you’re going for.

    in my experience, shure earbuds dont really have that problem.

    i used the 215 model for a while and am pretty happy with them

    i use sony wf-1000xm4 and have to disable noise canceling while cycling, and then they work fine.

    not cheap headphones. but the sound quality seems decent, battery lasts forever in my usage. not the most comfy for me but they’re ok. dropped them plenty of times and they still work too, if a bit dinged up.
