I'm border line deaf and have worn hearing aids for +15 years. Quality hearing aids are expensive, and IMHO provide minimal benefit to a rider due to the noise the wind makes and more importantly the damage caused by sweat to these sensitive devices. I have not worn my hearing aids on a ride in a decade. Being deaf is not a showstopper. You compensate by getting a good mirror, by being flexible enough to check traffic by swiveling your head/body, riding defensively and keeping them in your pocket/case for friends and ice coffee post ride. The behind the ear models are superior to the inner ear types, especially in hot environments.
Best Wishes..
