What's good?
I normally get the Scott ones from start cycles but I've missed out this time.
Realistically all I'm after is a nice lightweight glove with a thin palm and no velcro.
I was bought as a gift some Altura progel gloves for the road bike - i bought another pair they are very good.
I really like the Fox Sidewinders but they do have velcro cuffs if that's a dealbreaker for you.
Specialized Grail are awesome, no numb hands and no Velcro and with a choice of full finger or mitts you can't go wrong!
Fist gloves, some with and some without velcro, have some dakine ones that fit the bill too. Just grab a couple of pairs from the next shop your in, always nice to have spare gloves.
Those free grey (or black) glove which MBUK give away each winter. f=For when it's not raining or cold - they absorb the sweat and are comfyish.
The don't provide much protection in a crash, but they're better than bare skin.
...and they're free. 😉
I've got some cheap 661 ones there ok, not as comfy as my previous fox ones (maybe sidewinders? They were free with a sub years ago) but decent enough. Super thin, and no Velcro
- they absorb the sweat and are comfyish.
The don't provide much protection in a crash, but they're better than bare skin....and they're free.
A 5* review!!
I look forward to summer so I can leave the gloves at home. Hate them!
I like the giro rivette II, nice and thin no padding or wrist fastening, just a little bit expensive, but they seem tough enough to get a few years wear out of rather than just one season.
Being a bit of a magpie I using pick 100% gloves in the loudest colour they have in the shop.
Got those for £4.99 last month http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/one-industries-zero-oneid-gloves-aw16/rp-prod139703
They fit me...like a glove.
Not sure if you can find them elsewhere...
