Will Arnold Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 fox sidewinders are quite hard wearing, but they do get a bit hot after a while. ta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkrider Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 I would say a pair of 661 Comp 04 You can get them from here Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMunn Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 Raceface Garda glove's are very good, and should come in handy in the heat aswell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endohopper Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Been using these for a while now , good grip , excellent minimal styling and pretty well ventilated , too . Not sure about availability though , cause I got em in Holland . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaroncosbey Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Yeah - those are all good gloves - but - you will be hard pushed to beat these 2 X for £20 posted The most comfortable gloves i have worn - (i have 7 other different pairs) They dont have any uncomfortable upper hand protection sewn on and they are £10 each!!! bargain (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nbr-chris Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Troy Lee xc gloves at 20 quid (in the picture above) or the new air gloves which are a thinner, cooler version so probably better suited to the summer. I've used xc's for about 8 months with no problems at all, i'd deffinately reccomend a pair and the TLD quality is pretty much unmatched IMO.

Littleharrys Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 661 gloves are pretty good, clever little grippy things for the brakes and thick padding were needed on the palm etc or Race Face which were my last pair. Id say go with 661 cos theres a bit more padding Catch you all at the Portsmouth ride, You better be there. Harry.

skandy32 Posted April 26, 2005 Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 i've said this a million times, but as yet, i dont think anyone has tried them, apart from me. I brought these for XC use, as they suggest, i now have 4pairs, and use them for everything! after 1 1/2 yrs, my first pair has a slight hole in the end of the thumb, but thats it. And they're dead cheapo too. hit me (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Cook Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Those grills look really good (Y) now there my first choice :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onzamad Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 alpine stars jet, i think they are, the older version anyway, cost me about £26, they are great, i can feel the bar, but at the same time not too thin. Theyve also got leather pad things below your little finger on the palm of your hand, thats where mowst gloves first rip, like my first set of alpinestars gloves, IMO bloody great gloves. alpine stars kit just click on the gloves bit and they are on there. i would put a pic up but its a flash site and i cant be bothered to doa print screenetc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
