Date Reviewed: July 12, 2005 | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$25.00 | | Purchased At: | Sea Otter Classic | | Strengths: | Good flexible material, well placed padding, good fit. | | Weaknesses: | Glued on reflective material coming off easily. | | Similar Products Used: | Performance Bike Forte full finger gel gloves | | Bike Setup: | Not applicable | | Bottom Line: | Over all I think it's a decent glove. It has a good fit so that I get good tactile feedback through the material to my fingers, which I personally like. There are a whole range of sizes (that I saw at thier Sea Otter booth), so getting a pair that fits shouldn't be an issue unless you have sasquatch hands (no offense to the sasquatch lovers).
The only observations that I would make would be:
1.) Make the padding across the palm go a little higher toward the center of the palm. (more of a personal preference)
2.) Use better glue for the accenting material and the reflective material as it starts coming off after a few trips through the clothes washer. Better yet, stitch it onto the glove instead of using glue. (It doesn't ruin the look of the glove when this stuff comes off. I barely notice it at first and forget about it later).
I will be buying another pair of these gloves when the current ones wear out. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
