Six Mile Creek | | Duration Product Used: |
1 Year | | Strengths: |
Great fit, nice protection, beautiful looks, not as hot as even some 3/4 finger gloves I've used. | | Weaknesses: |
Tips of fingers get holes in them quickly if you're wearing them while opening zippers, fumbing with keys, etc. (So take em off before doing anything dexterously.) Palm wore down a little prematurely, but at least it didn't rip. | | Similar Products Used: |
Nahsbar 3/4 gloves, Fox Inlines, Fox Mojave 3/4. | | Bike Setup: |
Rigid Nishiki set that evolved from mtn. to trials bike. | | Bottom Line: | These gloves fit so well, and have held up to a lot of mtn. and trials riding abuse. Worth the money, especially over Fox gloves. [My Mojaves shredded after four months] | Overall Rating: |

Good lookin' | | Weaknesses: |
None leap to mind | | Similar Products Used: |
Pearl Izumi fingerless | | Bike Setup: |
GT LTS | | Bottom Line: | They look dope and I only broke myself of $32 for 'em so they're OK. Saved my palms a few times. I always wear 'em and ventilation isn't really that much of an issue. Very comfy. After about three hours of riding trails on them a seam came loose between my middle and ring fingers on the left one but I guess that's just a manufact flaw. Otherwise they're great. | Overall Rating: |

El Moro | | Duration Product Used: |
3 months | | Strengths: |
Extremely comfortable, nice padding, and alsome grafix | | Weaknesses: |
palm wears quickly | | Similar Products Used: |
Fox sidewinder, Rocket parts, | | Bike Setup: |
Stumpy w/ FS-Ti, Access Trial bike | | Bottom Line: | One of the most comfortable glove I've ever worn, not a hand warmer oven like the sidewinder w/ still plenty of protection. The lycra lining on the finger gives a nice fit.
the only problem seems to be that the padding on the palm(some sorta PVC material) gets worn pretty fast(Could be because of my nightly hour trials session), but definitely one of my favorte purchases. Even w/ the palm thing, still deserves five burning camel dropings. | | Overall Rating: |

fit very well, constructed well and last. | | Weaknesses: |
a bit expensive | | Similar Products Used: |
Scott gloves | | Bike Setup: |
Jamis hardtail | | Bottom Line: | I got into Mountain Bikes well after I started riding Motocross bikes so I use alot of my riding gear for both. I have a pair of Scott gloves that are atleast five years old and still wearable, but they are now where near as comfortable as my AXO Padlocks. I know I might look like a dork, but wear them when I ride my road bike too. I have two pairs and they have been wet and muddy and still work like new after several years. | | Overall Rating: |
