Submitted by Kona_CT a Cross Country Rider from Windsor, CT

Date Reviewed: August 31, 2010

Strengths:    Colors, knuckle protection, protects wrists from scrapes

Weaknesses:    Hands get HOT, no velcro closure

Bottom Line:   
I got these gloves from Kona when my Supremes started to fall apart after a few months. Overall I don't like these gloves and only wear them if I'm doing more serious off roading.

Submitted by Devin a Weekend Warrior from Port Credit mississauga

Date Reviewed: June 27, 2007

Strengths:    Looks nice, feels like it should, protects two outer knucles with carbon casing, ..... its a personal glove. Great protection of mid-pack dirt.

Weaknesses:    Very little protection from anything on the trail or street

Bottom Line:   
This glove is personal, as in after time it realy sits to your hand alone, my friends who tired my gloves struggled. Its great when your dirtjumping, it protects from dirt, but on the trail, downhill or freeride its almost as bad as going glovless.
