They actually slip into the ear and block out sound like ear plugs do.

I'll post up some pics if anyones interested.

Is that the stuff that you get if you dont clean your ears?


Eww Minging


Anyway..



They allow you to hear your music (even at a low volume), block out wind noise (well in excess of ***mph) and are really comfy too

Shown here with the added samsung adapter but also has the standard (1.5mm I think) fitting.

Always wear earplugs on long journeys. Never really used my ipod on the bike but dont think I want to really.

Just ordered some custom plugs from Ultimate ear and the NEC. Got to wait a couple of weeks for them to come through. Ive heard nothing but good reports about them so I thought I would give them a crack.

Where is the option for sometimes head-phones, sometimes ear-plugs?

I ride with head-phones when riding to work as it alleviates the boredom of the A470, but, when out on a blast I wear ear-plugs
