Why, for entertainment of course. Music, podcasts, maybe talking to someone, maybe just drowning out noise or keeping out bees :) I wound up sending the Soundcores back. Even with the wind noise setting, they're still noisy and don't stay in the ear very well - especially with the lightest...

When did that happen? That's hyuge! ~1300 was a bit of a joke

Now with sand castle assist mode!

I have a feeling that most who say they prefer tubes over tubeless have not spent much time with tubeless setups - if any at all.

loonies would be tricker, huh?

Did I miss the part explaining why a 5 dollar bill offers a better rip repair than a single? :) Beer while waiting on the uber? 🤷‍♂️

Tubes are senseless these days. Rim and tire tech is mature for tubeless setups, sealant is good, and rotating mass savings (especially when considering the inserts some use for flat protection) improve ride quality, acceleration and handling. You also eliminate pinch flats and can use lower...

I use cloth Tesa tape, Velcro, and zipties where applicable. They all have their place. Maybe heat shrink in the right application. Split loom & spiral wrap are non-starters for me - they're noisy, cause abrasions, and are just plain ugly. Never dealt with exposed connectors myself, so no...

I have a 2 and 4. The 2 gets hotter than the 4 for whatever reason. I charge with it if I'm not in a hurry 'cause longevity. I have tried putting a fan in front of the 2 and it keeps it cool to the touch. I don't usually do it, but you could probably skip the external coolers & just use the...

Timely - this just showed up in meh Youtoob feed

Maybe this is a good time to go start a thread about the dangers of riding with earbuds. This one here is about earbuds that work well for cycling :)

Wack. A license to ride a bike is about the dumbest idea ever. Instead of focusing on what people are riding, maybe enforcement of HOW they're being ridden is more appropriate. You don't need a motor to do stupid.

See the last sentence in the first post :)

Yeah, I figured that out by sticking my head in front of a fan with no helmet lol. It isn't the straps. But - it should be a good way to evaluate all these different earbuds & find out which is the quietest. Have a few sets at work right now, but once I get them all back home, gonna give that...

Interesting. So it's the helmet strap that makes the noise? Always seemed to me that the wind noise was generated at the ear, but it might be worth a shot. It is really close - so close that stem-type earbuds won't work because of the strap. I tried the Soundcores today. They came out after...

Wondering if y'all have a favorite. I've been using Jabra Elite 7 for months - mostly love them for cycling & gym because of the physical buttons. Not all earbuds work with gloves. I just picked up a set of Soundcore Liberty 3 Pro that might replace the Jabras though - we'll see. I didn't...

The bikes they prefer to steal are the easy ones. Make yours harder to steal than the others around it. Best practice is to store it inside your home or workplace. Not only for security, but bikes that live inside last a lot longer. But if it has to be locked somewhere, secure it in a...

I always considered advertising the dark side. It was my 2nd major. One of the last classes of my senior year, a professor and mentor said to a bunch of us - raise your hand if you have a problem lying to people. Mine was the only one that went up. Aside from product photography, I never...

This is right before the bugs start filling my beard 🥽
