Dunno about for riding but Koss headphones are great for the money imo. I got some called 'the plug' I think.

Sennheiser CX300. Check Amazon.co.uk, they are a bargain.

richer sounds have a deal at the moment , spend over £5 and get a free pair of MX300 Sennheiser's.

worth taking a look at

Yeah Sennheisers MX500s have been good for me. Good bass, volume lead on the cable and you can still hear the outside world! The plug types are lethal on a bike!

don't get the sennheiser around the back neck band sports ones in lime green (forgot model number) the speaker part only fits part into the ear with the sound being projected, fine when running but as soon as you cycle with any speed you will not be able to hear over the wind noise, leading you to turning up the volume.

I've just ordered some sony ear buds with neck band, my sennheiser ear buds are great but won't stay in after a bit of riding and sweaty ear creation. Hoping the neck band will fix that.
