Add a review (form opens in right column) reviewed by norcorider   on July 7, 2009   Pros Good fit with great padding Cons Not armored on the nuckles, seems like it would tear easily on tree branches, etc. Verdict A great XC glove for the money reviewed by trek7k   on September 29, 2008   Pros Sleek look, padding is adequate and the Body Geometry pad seems to reduce numbness as advertised. Cons Padding bunches up at the top of my palms. The first two days of riding with these gave me BAD blisters. Verdict I chose the extra large size because even the larges didn't seem to cover down to my wrist but these gloves bunch up on sweaty rides. If you have long skinny digits like me these may not be the best sized gloves.
