Aftershokz schwag grab: we have winners!
Oops. As is often the case we've left this one to run a bit over. But never mind, we've remembered now and so it's time to fire up the random-o-tron and see what it spits out. 'Scuse us while we translate this punched paper binary into some meaningful phrases.
Aha! it says Paul J, usedtobefaster, poppa, davecochrane and ShakyBakey are our winners! Well done you chaps! we'll be in touch.
Sorry if you missed out, but there's more comps on the way. Stay tuned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Happy Tuesday folks! today it's sunny (here) and we're feeling generous, so who wants a pair of Aftershokz Bluez 2 Wireless Bone Conduction Headphones forth £89.95? We have five to give away!
The old heaphones-while-cycling chestnut is one that'll run and run, but the great thing about the Aftershokz ones is that they don't block your ears at all. Instead they use bone conduction technology to send soundwaves into your ear through your cheekbones, leaving your ears free to hear ranting white van men and revving Vauxhall Novas. Bliss.
We've tested them and our guinea pig Elliot really rated them, calling them a "Sleek and comfortable answer to the cycling-with-headphones debate". And you could get your fitlhy paws on a pair, for free. All you have to do is comment below, and you're in the hat. Come tiffin-time on Friday we'll pick five lucky winners. Usual schwag grab rules apply. Good luck!
Dave is a founding father of road.cc, having previously worked on Cycling Plus and What Mountain Bike magazines back in the day. He also writes about e-bikes for our sister publication ebiketips. He's won three mountain bike bog snorkelling World Championships, and races at the back of the third cats.

I have frequent otitis externa which means conventional earphones are painful to wear. I've been saving up for a pair of these since I heard about them. I tried them in a shop some time ago and they're fantastic!
Yes please...
looks good!
Yes please
very well worth a try!
Count me in please, heard good things about these.
Sounds good!
Could be better than whistling or humming.
Worth a go.
Yes please!
Do your ears drop off when the bass DROPS?
Would love a pair
Yes please
I was having a slightly warm conversation with a friend on Saturday regards cycling with earphones.. I don't do it myself but understand why others do, especially if out on the open road, far from busy roads.
I suggested the reasons why it's not so bad some times and the argument that deaf people can drive, to which he replied that they can't. On googling a little, another friend said that you could but my other friend countered if you were in an accident, you would have the book thrown at you..
Anyone know for sure?

Yes please even if I might not use them on the bike as such, great for in the office as well
me please
Thinking about buying some of these after reading the positive road.cc review. I know that they are frowned upon by many but I find headphones essential for my, largely A road and mundane, 32 mile commute, these would be ideal!
I wouldn't feel so guilty for wearing my usual headphones in 1 ear when I wear these.
Hope my name comes out of the hat
Yes please !!!
Thanks for the headphones
I wouldn't say no!
Mine!
cooly
Oof! Yes please!
yes please
a pair would be lovely, thank you.
Oooh yes please.
I was researching these just yesterday! Fingers crossed n all that!!
me, me me.... please
Get in the hat!
Yes please!!! Although I might need two sets as the Mrs is guaranteed to steal them!
