Strengths: Very durable and provide a good grip for both cross country MTB riding and road biking.Weaknesses: I think they have been discontinued.Bottom Line: I found these gloves in the gravel lot at my local trail. They had been soaked by rain, driven over, and ground into the gravel, but I figured it was worth washing them and trying them out. That was 2 years ago. I have worn them for hundreds of rides in weather from the mid-50s through upper 90s and have been thoroughly pleased with them. The fabric is just now starting to wear through and show some small holes, which I have sewn up. Unfortunately, it looks like Specialized has phased out the design. Too bad. I would have paid the MSRP of $35 for a new pair in a heartbeat!
Favorite Trail: Any
Duration Product Used: 2 Years
Purchased At: Found in parking lot

Strengths: Comfortable, grips well, doesn't feel "slippery" even after a year of riding. They go through the washing machine once a week or so and they're still holding up.Weaknesses: Eventually the red "S" on the forefinger will come off...but it hasn't yet!Bottom Line: Works great for a light, all weather glove. I wear these in all temperatures and they're just fine for me. The gel "Body Geometry" pad in the palm really does relieve pressure in the right place and reduce hand fatigue on even short rides. The soft pad on the back for wiping sweat off your face works well too and is a nice touch. I've put these down in the dirt in a couple of crashes, and they managed to come out with no real damage.
I wear these for both road and XC riding. More comfortable and lighter than the Enduros, but they'll still do the job.
