Bike commute needs to hear cars, gym wants isolation, one pair realistic?
I bike to work a few days a week and usually hit the gym on the way home.
Makes picking buds weird because I want opposite things at different times.
On the bike, awareness is non-negotiable.
i need to hear cars, other riders, and crosswalks. wind sucks too, especially for a quick call before/after the ride.
At the gym it flips. Loud speakers, weights dropping, want more isolation than most open-ear stuff gives.
Pretty sure one pair won't be perfect for both.
Trying to figure out if a switchable open/sealed style is actually usable or if I should stop pretending one pair can do bike + gym + office calls.
If you split cycling, gym, and work calls, where does it usually break first?
