Jaco Steyn Posted January 4, 2007 Share I have seen a lot of discussions on tyres, helmets, shoes and seats but nothing on gloves. What's the best out there, and how often do you replace them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cois Posted January 4, 2007 Share I bought a set of Cyclogells. Padding is great, but the quality sucks. I did the 94.7 with them, and they went up in tatters. Other gloves I have used is: RavX gloves. Good but the padding doesn't last, Replaced after 14 months Quality great, and I still use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bored girl Posted January 4, 2007 Share I've had my ravX novaX for just over a month quite happy with them as i use them for rowing at the gym so they go through some serious abuse. Have no clue how long they gonna last that way but id definately consider getting another pair when they die Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndreZA Posted January 5, 2007 Share I just replaced my Ravx NovaX with Louis Garneu Biogel Air. They were about R30 cheaper then the Ravx and waaaaaaayy more comfortable and airy. Even the palms have got some air holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

linnega Posted January 5, 2007 Share By far the best gloves I have used are Chiba CrossWind gloves. Don't know of anyone that stock them here, but you can get them from Oldham Cycle Centre (www.oldhamcyclecentre.co.uk) for 14 quid. Next best bet is the PRO gel gloves that you can get at most bike shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty Posted January 5, 2007 Share I have Pro Gel, strong and comfortable. Worst gloves i've had were Ryder, they came apart after only a few rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatcyclist Posted January 5, 2007 Share Fox! There's a reason they're R300 a set! Best gloves I ever owned. My current RavX's are 6months old and on the way to retirement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
