We loved the Shokz OpenRun Pro open-ear headphones and for Black Friday 2024 they are carrying a huge discount of up to 32% on headphones that we found are one of the best headphones for cycling.
There are several versions of the Shokz bone conducting headphones discounted for Black Friday, but the 32% savings on the OpenRun Pro and OpenRun models have the best reductions and are well worth snapping up quickly.
Safely listening to music or podcasts while riding can enhance your riding experience and also help achieve your training goals.
Traditional headphones have always been considered dangerous, as most earphone designs will close out the surroundings which can be an issue on busy roads. Shokz has aimed to solve this with its bone-conduction headphones – which means the open-ear design allows users to easily stay in tune with their surroundings.
In his testing, Tom Epton loved the OpenRun Pros, especially the quick charge feature that delivered an hour and a half of battery life in just five minutes of charging – which is incredibly useful if you forget to charge your headphones.
Tom tends to listen to heavy metal while out on the bike and also reported that the OpenRun Pros delivered excellent sound quality and had no issues handling heavily layered music saying, "The sound was brilliant, and means you can enjoy your favourite music easily while you ride." The only real negative was in windy conditions the open-ear design made quieter songs and podcasts slightly harder to hear.
