Strengths:
Comfortable.
Weaknesses:
Wears out extremely quickly.
Similar Products Used:
Old Specialized gloves, Perl Izumi Pittards Carbon.
Bike Setup:
Specialized Stumpjumper
Bottom Line:
These gloves developed several small holes over the course of one season due to the soft material used for the palms. Even after one ride I noticed that bits from the palm were already wearing off!! Avoid these gloves, they are not even suitable for road riding.
I have since replaced the gloves with Perl Izumi Pittards Carbon gloves which are great because the palm is made from leather.
