Can anyone recommend a decent summer glove with a very ventilated or even mesh back? I’m getting horrible (what I assume is) sweat rash after every ride on the back of the hand between thumb and forefinger.

Minimal padding required. Ideally a velcro cuff so I can loosen that off as well.

Specialized ridge seem to fit the bill if a bit spendy.

They do look nice. Not sure I can justify thirty quid, but maybe I’ll have to.

Martin have you tried sterilising your gloves?

Sterilising? With Milton?

They do get washed regularly, but it’s possible they’re harbouring something vile. Apart from my hands, that is.

Have you tried not wearing gloves?

Don’t like riding without gloves. Just feels wrong!

Thanks – seen a few fingerless which seem to fit the bill, but it has to be full finger too.

Troy Lee Ace are super light. My hands are full of thorns 🙂

Hate gloves, best thing about summer is riding without them. (well maybe not the best thing but a quite good thing.)

Road bikes, but the principle’s the same
