Sounds like it would break up the monotony of long rides and a lot safer than wearing headphones!

Looks like a great way to have music on your rides, especially a long solo one. And I have never liked ear plug head phones. They always seem to fall out. If it was used on group rides, I hope everyone has similar tastes in music!

I’ve been waiting for something like this to spice up rides and provide a safer alternative to headphones! This would certainly make long, lonely rides more enjoyable, and like Terry said, would help groups keep the same cadence.

Hey Tyler – great score!!

The quality of the sound comes out really good.
When (if ! :-) I win it, it’ll make a great gift for Rich, the best rider in our group … will give us all a great incentive to ride hard & stay hot on his tail so we can catch the tunes!

This is much safer than headphones and legal I might add. I will no wear headphones on a ride but would love to have some music and this looks like the answer.

This is great and safer than using wireless headset. I’m sure there is a market out there. I will promote this with my cycling club here in Maryland.

This was the only thing I asked for for Christmas, and I still did not get it.

This is so cool I have wanted one for almost two years, I believe it was developed for RAGBRI .

Looks pretty cool, but where do I put my normal under seat bag then?

I’d love to see someone race with one of these and play the Benny Hill, “Yackety Sax” theme. hehe

I saw the cyclesound at RAGBRAI last year and the sound quality is great. It made the ride easier everytime a rider with a cyclesound came by or was passed. A great product.
