Muel Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 No no no no, not hebo if you wear gloves out, I ride motorbike trials, all my mates have them and they fall apart, I have 661 Comps, they have never failed but are quite new.I did 2004 fox digits from stif.co.uk. they were the best gloves ever, the 661s were quite uncomfertable, these were dead comfy and only £14 a pair...I'm gonna get some more when the 661s finally go.

Muel Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 You have never bought any luke, Andy has had 4 pairs in the time I had my fox's, and he used them once a week on his motorbike, I use mine on my motorbike and on push bikes...When you have bought some and ripped them as quick as Andy has then you will see,...

I-LUV-TRIALS Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 I used to use 661 gloves but they always riped and were full of holes but now i have some fox digits and i have had mine for about 3 months now and there are no signs of wear at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor1991 Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Id go for FOX gloves aswell. I had them when i used to dirt jump and they never wore down for ages. there not too expensive either. I think they were about 20 Quid when i bought them.

wind_up Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 (edited) They are wearing out quickly as you are clearly riding too much! I suggest that you stay inside and eat cake...Trials gloves are so thin and high performance that they are going to wear out quickly. This is something you are going to have to accept my friend unless you want to ride in ski gloves. Having to buy a new pair of quality gloves every few months would not be a crisis for your bank account and they will be worth it. I have a mate who rides motorbikes who used to go through a pair per week!I recommend Raw Sport or Sammy Miller. These are thin enough for good control and are very reasonable in price. Bosco Figures are the ultimate...if you can find/afford them. Edited December 21, 2006 by wind_up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montybiker41 Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 no no no, I'm a big time motorcycle off-road rider, about 11 years now, and i would recommend a pair of MSR gloves. Incredibly comfortable and not expensive. they have also lasted a year of heavy riding bicycles, motorcycles, and everything else. right now I'm running some specialized enduro grips that are very comfy and seem like they will last along time.

Tim-Hill..Yeah Mate Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 you dont need gloves if you just spend 5£ and get foam grips, go to halfrods 4 grips for a fiver, you cant actually go wrong!rubber grips are horribleTim.

willwithashton Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 Ive been using the troy lee designs xc gloves for nearly a year now and they are still fine and only about half worn. In my eyes they are the best trials gloves. they also keep your hands warm in the winter. will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
