I did this for peace of mind and I think it makes for a tighter grip. She had bought these before and found them to be very wearable. The style is very simple and atmospheric, and it is very low-key. So the only drawback for road cycling is the weight, but these are still lighter than other mountain bike shoes by a little bit. Its not up there with the very best of mics but then nor is the price. The only con I can note is more nit picky, the battery case for these is not as compact as the Galaxy Buds case. This allows you to slap your phone in the wallet part and have it stay put. Get these to save money unless you need REALLY loud music or cant tolerate the cord between them, those two things were not worth an extra $120 to me. For occasional moderate to light use, this is a reasonable choice. I like the price of this speaker, also It comes with the USB charging cable.
