Strengths:
Very comfortable and cool for the summer months
Weaknesses:
They fall apart after a short period of time
Similar Products Used:
Specialized, 661, Trek, Fox, etc
Bike Setup:
5 Spot, Top Fuel 110
Bottom Line:
These golves are not worth the money. I had 2 pairs. One lasted about 9 months, but started falling apart after 6 months. The second fell apart even before the first ride. The thumb stiching ripped as soon as I put the glove on.
I have to give these gloves a poor rating. Tehy just don't hold up.

Strengths:
Pretty good fit, good ventilation
Bottom Line:
Nice gloves with mesh ventilation at the palm where most of us need it & snug but comfortable fit. I've ridden with these in cold weather and found that they provide just enough warmth, but also works well in warm weather.

Purchased At:
Performance Bicycle
Strengths:
Very conforming, snug fit. Ulnar nerve padding is excellent as I get numbness and pain in my hands when riding for long durations. Well ventalated. Good grip.
Weaknesses:
A bit expensive considering the average price of similar products. However, the quality of those products do not match up to these.
Bottom Line:
Excellent pair of gloves. Similar products may be $5-$7 cheaper but in my opinion, the extra money is well worth it.

Purchased At:
United cycle
Strengths:
Excellent ventilation. Good design, fits nicely.
Weaknesses:
Mine are a bit too snug, but I just have big hands.
Bike Setup:
Odi Rampage Grips
Bottom Line:
Nice glove for the cross country rider. The vents in the top of the fingers lets air flow right through the glove when your moving. Ulnar and median nerve protection is overemphasized, but I guess I havent had any finger numbness or anything either.
