Ok its the darkside, but does anyone have any suggestions for some fingerless road gloves for the summer.

Was looking at some giro lx, but quite expensive and fall apart, otherwise giro bravo ?

Many thanks.

Been very happy with my Giros so far, no idea what model they were, think they cost £20.

Why do people insist on using the stupid term ‘darkside’.

Anyway Gore work well, specialized used to be good but latest ones I have fall apart very easily.

TRACK MITTS.

Specialized with gel padding the best I’ve tried, but a bit pricey.
Last for ages, but the leather does stretch over time, making them a bit baggy.

Edinburgh Bike Coop own brand cheaper and very comfy, but only used for a year so durability not tested.

Wear them all year round on the MTB too, except in the proper depths of winter.

bought some Altura ones last year with nice cool string back and seem to have kept shape/not worn on seams – not a lot of padding but i prefer that
they are high on the i’d replace if lost them scale

just been to look label says “classics”

Specialized BG Pro
Prendas

I had a pair of Giro Monaco gloves last year, and they didn’t last too long, but they were nice while they lasted, have replaced with Bravo gloves, which although a lot cheaper I prefer, the fabric palm still feels nice after 2-300km where as the leather on the Monaco’s would get nasty, was great for short distance though.

I also like the Aldi gloves, we are due for one of their bike selection sales, and the fingerless gloves should be in it, normally they go for £4-5.
