They look like they stick out a little too far to be comfy on the Bike. And just over 100 quid for the set too :eek.
I'll stick to my 10 quid set which I made with a pair of my old headphones and some mild your own ear plugs...perfect fit.

I'm weary of things on kickstarter.
Signed up for an item that was supposed to be sent out pre xmas 2013. Still not gone into production, and looking at July, at best!
Also, consider custom made earplug style phones, made in the UK. Save your hearing while supplying your favourite sounds.

mines essentially do the same thing for about £15-20 outlay...granted, probably not the same level of protection as a bespoke pair at £170, but not a million miles away i would wager so long as you dont crank the volume up full...

Yours are which ones? Got a link please? I also would like to NOT fork out 170 quid. Don't care about the music aspect, but a well fitting ear plug would be nice.

I bought these:

and followed this guide to add headphones:

Work just fine for me

Looking at your amazon link and came across these.
They're on eBay for 7.99 for 2 pairs! Ordering them, one just ear plugs, one pair with earbuds!
Thanks!
