Just looked them up. I like the idea of bone conduction so it doesn’t block your ears. Do they hold on with rougher riding?I use trekztitanium bone conducting wireless headphones, they are great!

Yep, never had any issues, been using the wireless ones for a couple of years and the wired ones before thatJust looked them up. I like the idea of bone conduction so it doesn’t block your ears. Do they hold on with rougher riding?
The JBL are great sound for the price. I had a similar pair and unfortunately the outside disintegrated and they stopped turning on within 6 months. JB hi-fi were good and refunded the money as they were no longer selling that model anymore, if I had have seen your ones I would probably have grabbed them as the replacement.Bought these yesterday
For the price they are awesome. Audio quality is as good as apples latest wired earbuds.
Once installed into the ear canal, you rotate the outer housing and they gently expand to lock in. No way these are falling out. With a linking cable and lipo batteries in the little bulges, there is no issues losing one earbud.
5 hours run time.
I had a pair of wired JBL’s before these that lasted a good 4 years, fingers crossed. JB’s sms tax receipts makes any future warranty claims easy.The JBL are great sound for the price.

I was contemplating some wireless headphones but hadn’t considered how long the batteries would last. For someone using for a few hours most days, is something along the lines of AirPods or similar likely only going to last a year or so before needing to be replaced?I had a pair of wired JBL’s before these that lasted a good 4 years, fingers crossed.

At this price, a years worth of use I think is fair and reasonable. Lipo cells are so small, they won’t have a 600 cycle life I’m guessing. Happy to be wrong.

I bought their bigger brother, the Endurance Sprint, a few weeks back after my Audioflys died.Bought these yesterday

I'd go so far as to say they purposefully avoid product longevity. Planned obsolescence and all....of course product longevity isn’t part of the product development team’s vocabulary at Apple.
I got airpod pros as a gift start of last year and found I use them every day at work and during the weekends. They are fantastic. I use them all the time riding and have never had them come close to falling out. The comfort, noise cancelling, and battery life is excellent too but I reckon most would be pretty good now. If they break I would get them again.I was contemplating some wireless headphones but hadn’t considered how long the batteries would last.

The sound quality from them is far from hifi, but far better than you would expect.Just looked them up. I like the idea of bone conduction so it doesn’t block your ears. Do they hold on with rougher riding?
Yep one of the best purchases I’ve ever made, perfect earphones when combined with Foam Masters tipsI got airpod pros as a gift start of last year and found I use them every day at work and during the weekends.

I also use the Aftershokz - Aeropex. The quality was a lot better than I thought it would be for bone-conducting headphones. They have passable microphone quality for hands-free but as you'd expect do not handle the wind well for that.I've got Aftershokz bone conducting headphones, they work really well. Not audiophile sound quality for music listening but very handy for being able to hear other stuff at the same time. Hard to make out detail like a conversation but you know someone's talking to you or there's a vehicle approaching etc. I wear mine all day at work sometimes, very handy for taking phone calls while working on a computer or driving.
When riding in the bush I want to hear any mechanical noises from the bike, and when the tyres are about to let go on gravel so I don't wear them while riding.
I've got some Jabra Elite 65t's I've had a few years and while they don't pop out, I don't recommend using the HearThrough mode as all you get is wind noise that the mic picks up from outside.Do the full wireless ones pop out occasionally? Looking at a few options, including true wireless, wireless with those clips, or the partial wireless…
And has anyone had any experience with ambient modes, where background noise is mixed in so you can hear what’s going on around you
