I just got my new (used) bike, and I'm also a big music nerd and love to listen to music when I'm traveling. Do you personally listen to music while you're cycling, and in your opinion is it safe?

Yep ! Got some open run from shokz and my commute include 10 km cycling path removed from car trafic where I rarely see anyone, so some high beat music is good to keep the pace.

How do you like the bone conduction? I've never actually tried a pair.

I like it very much. I like listening to podcast but bone conduction + riding on a bike is not a good mix to really focus on a good podcast. It is good for listening to music with a certain "beat", like when you exercice or are on a long road. Not really good for more nuance quiet music.

Good to know! Thanks for the info, it sounds like they’re not for me
