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.

okay, go on then.
Yes please, will they work while running too I wonder....
Yes please!
Too dangerous on a bike, but on my floating lounger, on the pool. Dreammmmmmmmmmm.
Would love to try them to see if they help keep me awake on longer rides
Yes please! I have no cheekbones though; if I put them on my pelvis will they still work equally well...?
Bet these would be a real help too if you are a bit 'mutt' like myself. Bluetooth into your phone perhaps...Nice.
Put them on my face!
Count me in for these, they sound pretty cool
I would love a pair of these!
Looks perfect!
These are exactly what I need for my daily rave/commute!
Yes please
I call my bike "the Boneshaker"... Will these still work?
Yes please - but how aero are they?
Remember Bonefones from the 80's but they were never this cool looking, but then Oakley Blades looked the dogs to! Could be this Autumns must have accessory
Yes Please
Yes Please!
Been wanting to try bone conducting earphones since Google put them in Google Glass. A pair of these would let me try that when I'm out cycling and running without looking like a complete nerd (Even though I am!
)
"10,000 fists in the air" comes to mind, playing tunes on these and flying through Plym's streets would be pretty awesome.
Yes please
Yes Please
Can they read you mind as well as play you music?
would be sweet to win a pair
How cool are these... I'd love a set.
Ooooh, yes please. And may I say your looking very fine today.
Yes please!
Here's hoping...
I'd love a pair! If you send me some I'll wear them on one of my styandard rides and let you know if the music makes me faster!
