Wow ok, you wear one side only? Tomorrow I’m gonna try and see.

No I wear both. Just dont set the music too loud, just enough to hear the music and it don't overpower everything. Vehicles are usually very loud so just make sure your music isn't louder than them.

But I still can perceive my surroundings because I regularly turn my head around left and right to check my back while riding on the road. In top of that I occasionally wear a mirror on my right wrist too. Both are habits from me riding motorcycles

How's the wrist mirror thing, is it that useful?
I didn't get to test out the earbuds cause when i woke up, it was raining and i don't like riding on wet roads due to the splashes. lol.

Only useful if one has the habit of regularly checking. Some will deem it troublesome,because it takes your eyes off the road in front of you.

I know many cyclist only pedal pedal pedal and look forward without giving much thought about their back. Not a good practise but hey who am I to complain?

Be responsible for own safety lor.

last time i used normal bluetooth device. problem lies when cycling i had to minimised the volume. the bone conducting type of earrphone on the otherhand, just nice . but got few drawback such as it feels tight on ur head and not for music lovers. sound are ok and not the best.but safety is ur main priority right?

might not fit fd on the fd hanger on the frame. i saw 1 tern user last time need to grind a bit on the verge body to fit sram red etap 11s fd. might fit on normal blast/speed frame.

also, need to change the hub to xd type. or can used shimano 12s casette.

another problen from ur pix, i saw bb30 crankset also will not fit the normal english thread frame such as my verge. need to find gxp type..

still, untill now i only use 3 cog from all over 10s casette besides change on the fd 53 or 39. still, very rugi if using 12s also. not fully utilized laugh.gif
