Strengths:    Very nice looking,light.

Weaknesses:    Extremely thin pads, not for DH or FR use,Dont count them for protection.

Bottom Line:

Date Reviewed: October 1, 2006

Strengths:    very comfortable glove, ventilated holes on top of fingers keep hands cool. Carbon fiber over knucles is very padded and can take a beating

Weaknesses:    single layer palm material which is perforated rips and stretches due to rubber padding at back of heel of palm

Bottom Line:   
decent product, gloves lasted a hard 6 months of riding including crashes. next years gloves look better. over all not bad for only 45 bucks.
