Verified Customer Reviews for Pinlock Ear Plugs
Customers have mixed opinions about these ear plugs. While many appreciate their comfort, ease of use, and the ability to still hear important sounds like intercoms and traffic, others find them less effective in noise reduction compared to foam alternatives. Some criticisms include difficulty in fitting/removal and the high price. Several customers laud the product's durability and the inclusion of multiple sizes, yet there is a consensus that they may not block as much noise as cheaper or disposable options.
I like them, I might have the wrong size in as the left ear works it's way free.
But other than that, solid product
They cut the road noise right down and are very comfortable with the helmet on, plus I can still hear the engine traffic and my Bluetooth headset phone calls and music clearly as if they wasn't in my ears.
So I'd definitely recommend this product.
Very good fit to ear, can easily get helmet on and off without having to worry about them falling out, comes with nice case and as a pair. Would highly recommend
Having riden for years, protecting my hearing's high on my the safety agender. These Pinlock Ear Plugs definitely rank highly as part of essential equipment. They fit comfortably beneath helmet & head
scarf. They cut out high frequency engine noise, from the motorbike, while allowing awareness of nearby road users at the same time as information transmitted by the communication headset equipment. Great quality service from SBS, also a quality product!
Good fit (two sizing choices]
and decent compromise between attenuation of sound and hearing what's going on around you.
Only complaint is that the little widget that attenuates the sound can come out of the ear bud if you're not careful.
Exactly what I needed
Good product that works well if fitted correctly to your ears, still a fair bit of wind noise but not bad enough to hurt your ears.
Second long-term use, got over 2 years regular use from last pair.
On third pair of larger option & are good with comms whilst filtering out majority of bike noise.
Clean & secure the filters for long life.
They do exactly what you would expect. Good product
I recently bought the **Pinlock Ear Plugs** from Sportsbikeshop.co.uk, and I'm extremely satisfied with both the product and the service. The ear plugs are fantastic at reducing wind noise without blocking important sounds like traffic or communication, making long rides much more comfortable. They fit snugly and are comfortable even during extended use.
As always, Sportsbikeshop provided excellent customer service. The order process was smooth, and the delivery was right on time, as usual. I highly recommend both the Pinlock Ear Plugs and Sportsbikeshop.co.uk for their reliable service.
Appear good quality.
Cermaic noise cancelling filter could drop out and be lost.
Could be brightly coloured, as is may easily be lost if dropped and also for visibility so more apparent to ppl wishing to speak when wearing them....
Could be provided with a more robust key fob pouch....
A little disappointing for Pinlock however far better than risking deafness.
Overall - recommended.
Having worn these Ear Plugs for a couple of years now, having tried many other brands, these consistently come out top. I've lost a couple of plugs and one of the tiny filters over time so end up having a repeat purchase. It would be good if they supplied spare filters also. An excellent product, fit for purpose.
I was a bit skeptical about paying out for these ear plugs but needed a solution so that I could hear my in helmet speakers while also protecting my hearing. The earplugs fit really well and are comfortable to wear and clean. They really do cut down the wind noise but not the other ambient sounds including my speakers. At motorway speeds and beyond, ahem, they work very well cutting down the significant wind noise. The only issue is that I wish they were supplied with at least one spare filter, they are so small and easy to lose. Overall, they work well and are worth the cost.
Again as my review for the Alpine ear plugs. Decent ear plugs that Reduce wind noise but not enough to stop you hearing cars or intercoms. A bit fiddly to get in and out if you get the little pull bit in the wrong place. Not sure worth the price as move around a lot when you put your helmet on. Simple cheap foam ones do the same job I've found to be honest so wouldn't buy again.
Look good. You get 2 sizes, so if one doesn't fit, then they are expensive, I found the smaller ones didn't fit at all and the bigger ones are just ok. I might have an odd ear shape, I find foams are a bit hit and miss, these didn't really work for me.
I have given 3 stars as other people rate them, it was an expensive experiment, but as I say, it might well be me.
Used a couple of times now, definitely reduced wind noise to an acceptable level without cutting the fruitiness from my vance & hynes exhaust!
The only issue I have is getting them in properly in the first place, which is most probably to do with my ear shape! Removing them is easier with the little tabs that are built in, but still fiddley. I'm sure this will get easier with practice.
Overall I think they are definitely worth what I paid for them.
I normally buy the Alpine ear plugs because I struggle with foam ones but thought I would give these a go even though they are more expensive. I couldn't get a decent seal despite numerous attempts and tried both sizes. I followed the instructions to the letter but no luck. I also struggled to get them out on a couple of occasions after I had pushed them right in trying to get them to seal. It might be the size/ shape of my ears! I'll stick to the Alpine Motosafe ones in future because I've never had any problems with them.
they are comfortable to wear and help considerably to reduce wind noise

Questions and Answers
Would the Pinlock ear plug stick out of the ear and cause a problem when fitting a full face helmet on, and get pulled out.
March 26, 2019I wear the Pinlock ear plugs myself, and have no issues. They seem to fit further in the ear than the foam style ear plugs.
