sealskinz mtb waterproof gloves

bought a pair of these after failing to get alpinestars chill in xxl....well....they only had blue ones in xxl.....and as i wouldnt piss on anything blue i went for the sealskinz and fairplay they are shite.....infact id go as far as to say they are dangerous !!! atleast for trail riding anyway.....they are made up of 3 different layers, inner thermal, middle waterproof and outer layer so you get a LOT of movement when you grip the bars so naturally you grip them tighter and a tight grip = mega arm pump and this is where they get dangerous as i found out on the crimbo ride... gave it the berries and the bike took off, ripped my hand off the bars and down i went like a sack of cac :geek: and that was the end of the sealskinz gloves as i swapped them for my progrip mx gloves and although i fell off a few more times throughout the day it was down to shite riding rather than shite gloves and my pinkies were soaking and nobbling but i felt a lot safer on the bike.......
so ive decided to keep the sealskinz to use on my pushbike and by a WR to go with my new blue alpinestars chill gloves......
marks out of 10
for mtb use = dont know....aint tried em yet :| ( probably shite for that aswell )
for trail riding = 0

Plenty of feel, as nice and thin, hands got wet though as the rain ran down my sleeves and inside them! So probably best avoided also

Got a pair of these aswell;

A bit bulky, but keep your hands warm.

I have been using these on both the CRF (when I get to take it out ) and on the MTB and road bicycle

Lovely and warm in the colder weather but have yet to use them with the inner glove so can't really comment on how waterproof they are

Ktm hydroteq's are the ones to get!!!

Yup I think I'll be investing

Bought a pair of klim powerxross gloves (superb)
Keep you totally dry, and hands warm as toast. Little on the thick side, but Have no problem with lever control.
The down side is that there £79 from adventure spec, but I've bought loads of gloves including seal skins and these klim are the best!

£79 bonkers All you need juls is a pair of these they even come colour coded

Might invest in a pair of hand warmers as well!
