I ride with AirPods on, no content playing, just transparency mode. It cuts harsh wind noise, maintains 3D acoustics, and keeps me safer as a result. They’re a hearing aid for me in this case.
replyYou may want to get some passive ear protection though, active noise canceling is not the same as noise protection.
replyUnless you drive slowly, I find that driving at 60 kph max is still comfortable on the ears.
No, riding for a long time without ear protection will damage your ears. Ear plugs at least are recommended. I am not hearing anything over the wind and engine noise anyway.
