I'm not sure I understand what you mean by or how you define what wrist support is? I have a lot of different types of bike gloves but I can't see how any of them really involve my wrist at all. Padding I get, but you can overcome that with changing the control surface of your bars, e.g. softer grips/layer under the tape. Something like the ergon grips or flat top road drop bars might help with hand positions that are better on your wrists.
Hi Modern Jess,
In reading my question again, I see your point about gloves not providing wrist support. That having been said, my wrists have gotten touchy since switching to the lobster claw gloves, though there could be other causes. I will look into Ergon grips & different road bars. Thanks for the feedback!
