Fingerless Gloves
Postby Comedian » Fri Feb 11, 2011 7:19 pm
I've got some PI gel gloves and they aren't really standing the test of time so well. Will see how they go.

I've had a pair of these for 6 months. The velco is just about lost its grip. Great glove, but a bit dissapoined that I'll prob only get another 6 months outa them. Had a pair of Netti's for 3+ years and they are till going strong as a spare, albeit the terry toweling is getting a bit scraggy.

Another vote for Sugoi gloves. I have two pair which I wear on rotation. Seem to be going strong.

What about for comfit? I have just started riding and i'm starting to rack up the K's quite fast.
By the looks any of the brands seem to be ok.

These gloves are available from c r c for $11.08 . At that price I just bought two pairs and a couple of other things so I would qualify for my 10 quid welcome back voucher. Postage is only $8 for up to 10 pairs. An 11th pair will double the postage, surely nobody needs more than 10 pairs of gloves thoughuncle arthur wrote:I've had these now for going on 12 months - they're brilliant. Machine washable, and they dont lose their chape - got them at 99 Bikes for about $40.

Some size/colour combinations are slightly more expensive, but still very cheap.

I got a pair of those last night too. Had some others in my basket and thought for $11 I should get them as well.

They're quite similar to the assos ones (with the snot toweling pads on the back of the thumbs) but they're only $25! I've had them for over six months now and they're still like new.

I had to cut the gel off mine because they were incredibly uncomfortable with flat bars. Not bad once the gel was removed though.HAKS wrote:Again Specialized for me. They have nice little pads under part of the palm that when used with drop bars provide perfect comfort.

I have the Spesh gloves too (Road Gel I think) for $45. 2nd pair as the dog got to the 1st pair.HAKS wrote:Again Specialized for me. They have nice little pads under part of the palm that when used with drop bars provide perfect comfort.
Longest I've gotten out of a pair of gloves is just over 12 months, but I was mine after each ride, which doesn't help. That includes Roekel, Giro, BBB, and a few others.
ONLY thing I don't like about the Spesh goves is no loops for removal.

Brand is called 'Zero' and they feel very similar to the Specialized BG gloves I have.
The gel padding is good for when you ride in the drops a lot, like I do, to prevent pressure on the ulna nerves.

I reckon those loops are mostly a waste of time. If they're not too fiddly to get hold of, they fairly quickly tear out.MichaelB wrote:ONLY thing I don't like about the Spesh goves is no loops for removal.
Rx - Undo velcro tab on mitts. Insert one (or two) fingers inside the palm. Push the glove off.
