Ultimate Ear

Ultimate Ear

Tässäpä lyhyesti katsaus käytössäni oleviin korvatulppiin. Kyseessä on englantilaisen Ultimate Ear -yrityksen (Ultimate Ear Protection ltd) valmistamat muotoon valetut tulpat.

Last year I got a new bike to me, the KTM 690 Adventure R. I thought to broaden my riding more gravel roads and even some technical driving in single tracks and paths. There is some 20 000 km of gravel roads here in Finland. They…
