Requirement:
- No ear, I have heard on the bike even the low / ambient noise (cars etc). Moreover Ear are also impractical (at me) as these when you sweat often slip out of the ear.
- Must a bicycle helmet that is in harmony not apply distracting
- Should no pressure points on the ear or cause pain during long rides.
I have the headphones since now about 3 years now. Momentary Conclusion: PERFECT!
Despite music I still take all the ambient sounds true. Is definitely a difference if you go with an in-ear headphones or an open cycle. In addition, these headphones are open gedultet by police or allowed!
I was skeptical at first whether this headband, my ears and the tapes I can match the helmet just say now: Prima. With the fixture I have zero problems. Once you know how to raise the bow while keeping needs is start on the ear a breeze.
Suppressed even in combination with sunglasses and tweaks here nothing.
The headphones I use in conjunction with the Sony - Ericsson MW600 Bluetooth headset, on which I not only listen to music but also if necessary the phone. And here show the Koss no weaknesses. Clear Voice, hervorrragende call quality.
With the headphones I have bought the same set of replacement pads. It took not a single, the package is still sealed ...
Now you may perhaps mean for occasional cycling headphones enough yes. Think again.
I am a summer and winter, rain and sun as the day and night bikers (way to work or go mountain biking) with approx 5000km a year. And still no weaknesses of Koss despite this insert (maximum weaknesses when machinists ...).
For this reason I can not agree with the negative reviews of others. Sure, a beauty they are not. Protruding ears are nothing to stop this.
But you meet (at least for me) perfect your purpose.
For this reason: 100 points!
