From experience cycling, the risk of accidents is up to 3 times causes of.
1. I put my headphones on to listen to music until I could hear the honk a horn.
2. There was a phone call and I was trying to get a phone call while cycling. Forgetting to look ahead causes almost colliding with a motorbike driving the way.
3. I tried removing the headphones to get the phone.
4. Wire strands twisted together, it takes 1-2 minutes to remove the strand.
Solution
- Disconnect the headset at a time when traffic is tight, then insert the headset when riding in rural areas without driving.

AfterShokz Trekz Air Headphones Test for Two Weeks There are many things to do on the road, traffic congestion, on the trainer, running on the treadmill and in the gym. This is a follow up.
- In Aftershokz box, headset bag, Micro USB cable and strap to wear. Before starting, you need to charge the battery first. By plugging into a computer's USB port or power bank. I have a small head, so I have to put tightening straps. When this cable is inserted, the headset does not move. Whether it's spinning, sprinting or even jogging on the gym.
- The headset uses good quality materials. Strong anti-sweat during exercise. Waterproof, but not 100% . If the water or rain, the manufacturer said that if the water into the mic. The battery compartment will be damaged.
- Time to wear headphones are attached to our ears. The transmitter will fall on the cheekbones.
- How to use it. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds to open the pairing system, then turn on the Bluetooth of our mobile. AfterShokz Trekz will automatically pairing. Convenient and easy.
- Connectivity: With it's Bluetooth wireless headset, the user has to pair with a Bluetooth compatible device. I used to pair with the iPhone 6 when pairing with the device, just press and hold the power button on the headset.
- Nearly the Power button has a USB port for charging. And the volume up / down buttons.
- The bottom end of the headphone is silver. There is a button MFB (Multiple Function Button). Used to receive / end the phone. Play / Pause Music Move the track to the next track.
- When I start listening to music or talking on the phone, I feel a little strange because it is not like the headphones, but like us "imagine" sound because it is in our head.
- The headphones work well, spin, run, or do activities, and listen to music through headphones alongside the 100% ambient sound. It does not interfere with the function of the ear. When I was spinning on the street, I could hear the sound from the back and side of the car like no headphones.
- The phone can be dialed by touching the Pause / Play button on the left side of the headset. If you press twice during the song, then forward to the next song.
- People who wear glasses may be annoyed. The headset must be placed in the same position as the ear. The glasses on the head are not very problematic. Because you can move the glasses higher than the headphones. But for those who wear glasses, the glasses must be worn all the time. Especially those who use large glasses will feel cluttered.
- The sound is heard in the middle. But there are clear details. The downside is the bass. The sound is good, the headphone can separate the left and right sound clearly.
- Points to consider The noise may be slightly swing slightly. I think it depends on the Bluetooth with FaceBook warning. The time has alerted in the mobile that FaceBook will stumble emotionally to our music.
- Put on a bike helmet without problems.
- Battery lasts about 5-6 hours per charge. Enough for any exercise or spin.
- After exercise, it will stain and sweat attached. I use a cloth moistened with water, wipe it off.

My Comment on AfterShokz Trekz Air
