We've all been there. You think you should cycle to work, because it's healthier, but you can't face up to losing the ability to tune out of the morning commute by cranking up Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon on your car stereo.

Well, now you've got no excuse. Because IWOOT is selling a stereo speaker that clips right on to your bicycle's handlebars. It's armed with big buttons for changing the volume and skipping between tracks, and you can keep your MP3 player in your bag, because it transmits audio wirelessly from a little unit that plugs into the headphone jack.

If you're planning a small gathering, or you just have a remarkably large bicycle (perhaps a tandem?), then you can sync up to four speakers together to blare out the music over a wider area. While IWOOT promises that the sound quality is "impressive", it's not going to be as good as a decent pair of headphones. However, a decent pair of headphones might also block out the sound of that car screeching towards you beeping its horn. It's your call.

It's charged via USB, and 2 hours of charging will give 6 hours of playback. It has a range of 30 feet, comes with a carry case, and costs £100. It's available now.
