Think iv,e found the best mtb gloves money can buy.

I was in a builders merchants yesterday when i came across some gloves.
They are absolutely spot on.
£10 a pair.
Iv,e worn out a lot of gloves over the years but these are the best iv,e ever bought.They make fox,661 ect seem lame
The ones i got are these.

Protection in all the right places.
Nuckles,finger joints,thumb nuckle and they are so comfortable.
Even the usual teery bit for wiping your face.
Youd swear these are mtb gloves
Think i,ll get some of these for DH.

But looking at there range they look superb.
I can,t emphasize just how good these are.
These look rather good as well.

those second ones quite clearly say

Demolition XC™

hence unsuitable for DH

wonders if “Demolition XC™” sits above or below “aggressive xc” and “AM”

Hahaha….nice one
But there is one called thunder xc.
I think that sits there.

I had some “scary fast rocket power” gloves once

waaaay above mere demolition and yet shit, all at once

They’re not Troy Lee XC. Therefore – FAIL.

Cpt flash is correct…I have now owned EVERY colour (though my new pink one are proper loud).

Troy lee xc …Iv,e had those as well.
They knock them into a cocked hat quality wise i,m afraid CF….

HERETIC!!! buuuuuurn him (bit curious though,but I get Troy Lees for £15 😀 ).

Shocking Gloves

two in the pink one in the stink derek?

Bloody hell. These are great. I need these.

Rob, what merchants were you in?

THey do look good, anyone found a uk stockist online?

Must be a stockist online. Will def get a pair or 2 for 10 quid each

I have a pair of the pro framer gloves for work, just hitting close to a year old and they are falling to bits. but i consider that bloody good since they were £10 with a beanie hat too…

Hard wearing and good fit i have used them everyday of the week for building work.

No not online.
If you look at stockists on there site i think there all in the US.
codybrennan where abouts are you.
Tony i got the hat with mine as well.
Can i bribe you all now as to where to get them.hehehehe

Here you go guys.

spill the beans man, they look great. which builders merchants?

ntb…look above

I need some new gloves. How thick are the palms on these? I don’t like really thick palms, tbh prefer the feel of gloveless but don’t like cut up hands if I fall off.

Not too thick tom…they really are the bizz

if only I lived in North Wales…….actually, scrub that comment.

Are you going to buy a job lot and sell them off on here. 1 pr XL of an XC type in a not too garish colour if so.

They do look good!

Not just north wales bud.
There all over the northwest.

Nice one, always handy* to find new gloves as MTB gloves are silly expensive.

*do you like what I did there, handy, mwhahahahah 😈

we need long term test reports on these.

the armoured ones look utterly shit! far too much palm padding to be any good for control and WTF do you want armoured knuckles for (especially riding DH)? the only time I ever damage my knuckles is the odd cut scratch from cutting into tight corners with overgrown holly, thorn bushes when riding XC and I don’t even wear gloves. (DH tracks don’t have holly/thorns etc and you NEVER land on your knuckles if you bail/crash).

GW- I broke 3 knuckles 2 fingers and plenty of bones in my hand in a stupid OTB crash, I always use knuckle protector gloves.

GW- I broke 3 knuckles 2 fingers and plenty of bones in my hand in a stupid OTB crash, I always use knuckle protector gloves. and you think a wee bit of padding on your gloves will prevent this? how?

It really hurts if I knock my hand now on trees / wotnot. I’d wear a medeivel gaultlet if I could.
