How easy is earbud insertion? Do you insert and then put on the helmet? Do the wires dangle? Does a snug helmet fit move the earbud?

Well, they're ear buds of your choice. So, the ease of insertion is up to you. The kit doesn't include buds.

We use buds quite a bit with this set up but have found selection of buds matters on how well they stay in. You will have to probably try a variety of buds to find one that fits the best, usually the smaller the better. I have some small Sonys that fit pretty good. The "marshmallow" buds did not stay in place at all. Good luck, be careful as the volume of this head set can drown out traffic noise.

I plug it in after I have my helmet on. It also comes with a coiled adapter/ extender. You can plug that into helmet, stretch it down and plug in ear buds. Overall, easy and great system.

Those are good questions.I bought this unit by accident for a friend for Christmas.By the time we got to use this it was too late for return.I like the unit with the speakers because you don't have to worry about wires because the wires and speakers are tucked in and out of the way.I would not recommend this item.

I set my helmet on my head and insert the earbuds, then slide my helmet on. Sometimes it will move my earbuds but it is easy to take off my helmet real quick to fix. I have all the excess wires tucked under the lining toward the back of my helmet.

Earbud insertion is easy, but I find it depends on the earbuds themselves... I put my buds on first, then the helmet.. If you want to see if they will dangle or if your helmet will move the earbud, but a cheap pair of earbuds (if you don't already own the paid you want to use). Then put them on with your helmet. Hold up the 3.5mm connector portion of the headphones (the jack that goes into your mp3 device) to the side of your helmet (that will simulate your earbuds being connected to the device)

When you get the box there should be different sized ear fittings inside. If you pull up on one of the edges of the foam fitting that's already attached to the buds then you pull it the rest of the way off. It doesn't just slide off easily but then again I don't think you'd want it to. After you've taken the fitting off then you can replace it the same way you took it off just reversing the process.

I actually use mine to go inside of headphones that are hearing protection. the earpieces come with Velcro pads, and they could be moved easily, with the mic, there are two mics, one is a boom type the other is one that you could put velcox on the back. I think that this would be able to be moved from one helmet to the other.

I have to wear a kid-sized bicycle helmet (the size for 12 and up, but still kid sized). They fit ok on me. they are just a tiny bit loose and tend to move around a hair more than I would like, but they fit loads better than most headphones do on me.

I use the small winder for those, and it's worked so far. Sometimes they get caught, and it looks like the inline volume part has the cord bent pretty sharply away from it at times, but so far it's just been an idle worry and hasn't caused any functional problems. If my earbuds stop working from being wound too right this way, I'll definitely post about it here!

A pair of foam coverings are included with the earbuds. It seems they take a little wiggling to get them on because the opening is not that large. I prefer to use them without the covers.

For me, so far, excellent ... and I've been using them pretty regularly for the past year or so. The part that wraps around your ear is Kevlar-reinforced and bendable, and the entire wire assembly is replaceable, connected to the actual buds with cylindrical snap connectors that swivel 360 degrees.

That happened to me until I went on underwater'a website and read to rub Vaseline around the earbud, then insert in ear. It made a world of difference. If that doesn't work, you may need a larger size bud.

No, all you have to do is pull the top rubber back and insert headphones. I purchased the black one and also the grey/white. Love them both. Hope this answers your question.

I haven't tried them exercising but they should stay in well. The proper way to wear them is you bring the wire up from behind your ear, looping down the front and then the earpiece pushes in. This loop of wire around the ear takes all the weight off the earpiece so it never moves.

That's what I did. Works great, you might need to fuss with the mic location. Recommendation: take a zip tie and secure the muffler to the actual microphone. Otherwise you'll take off your helmet and it will eventually fall off and get lost.

I don't remember this being a problem. So I must not have had a problem with tangling any more than with other earbud wires. The wires are smooth, and are probably less likely to catch on each other than some other more rubbery wires.

You would want to put them on your ear after the helmet is strapped on and then it does stay on your ear pretty well. I think it would work with a push button but the benefit of them is voice activated to leave your hands free. If you didn't want that feature so you can control talk time, I think it would work, but haven't tried.

There are three different sized pairs of silicon earbud covers. They're fit really well in your ear, very comfortable. I'm only afraid that if you have a ear above average size, perhaps the bigger one won't be big enough to fit well, because I always use the middle sized one, but with this headphone I have to use the biggest one.

Hmm... as far as I can tell, as long as you've removed the ear cushion/pad and the ear hook, it should slide/snap right into the headset where the 2 arrows are pointing. No such luck?

In the two helmets that I have the wire tucks into the liner in the back interior of the helmet. I don't even know it is there once they are installed. Most ear pad enabled helmets seem to have this feature, but it may depend on brand.

I ordered some new earbuds with attached wires from the company. I then taped the wires to the plastic neck part so that the wires wouldn't get pulled and broken. I really love this unit.
