The part is designed to ride up against the seat tube right where it meets the top tube so if you have a full suspension bike this may or may not work for you depending on the rear suspension design. It having the exhaust removal tool, I did not remove the exhaust. These headphones were made of high quality, I bet. I just wish there was a disclaimer or explanation. I then bought a black for my husband. Hes spent the entire day chewing and carrying it around proudly. I HATE these! Hopefully they last a long time. These are high quality and fit as expected. I love this pair of shoes.
