Ok, take a deep breath and face the truth: you’re a music addict and you need professional help. Listening to music everywhere you go, no matter the circumstances, no matter the people you meet, it’s not the main issue here. The problem is that you got to that critical point where you brag about how you ride your bike with no handlebars while you switch from one song to another. This ain’t funny, so that you know! It’s enough you wear those earbuds that keep you from hearing a regular car coming around the bend.

In other words, riding a bike could become a dangerous thing to do in your spare time, unless you’re keen on adventures. Therefore, if someone tried to come up with a solution, it wouldn’t come as a surprise.



“Music makes biking more fun. It enhances the experience and motivates you to push harder”, says Jeff Lotman, a Los Angeles entrepreneur and an avid cyclist who invented the CyFi, the world’s first wireless sports speaker for biking, boating, camping or any activity enhanced with a portable speaker. The device is available in two models which are compatible to almost any music-carrying system: one is the ultimate iPod accessory and the other supports Bluetooth-A2DP enabled cell phones, PDAs and MP3 players. Now, all of you, cycling enthusiasts or weekend campers, can enjoy a unique listening experience.



The CyFi is about the size of a deck of cards and weights less than 4 ounces. It isn’t impressive enough? Well, the revolutionary design and portability which make it easy to be mounted on the handlebars of a bike, on a backpack or any other place you prefer. The iPod version it’s based on the Kleer technology (this technology is optimized for high quality wireless audio transmission between portable audio devices) and allows you to listen to your music in a stunning sound quality, even longer, thanks to the long battery life. In addition, it’s provided with a handy desktop charging stand.
As far as the Bluetooth version is concerned, it allows you to listen to music on any device that supports A2DP, which is the latest stereo wireless standard. The CyFi can also be used to receive phone calls while you listen to music, as it’s also a hands-free speaker. And if your phone supports voice recognition, then you can make speed dialing calls.
Starting September 22, the device will be available on the company’s online store, with a retail price of $179,95 for the Bluetooth version and $199,5 for the iPod version.
