>>>>Papa, how are those lights working out for you?<<<<<

The $5 Harbor Freight light is STILL working fine, but I won't DARE bring that up here Funny you should mention the light, because I was thinking the other day how unbalanced that whole argument was. I don't use my light half as much as many of the people on these forums, which is probably why it has worked out so well for me. I suppose people who ride to work in the dark every morning and every night might have a different experience.

Regardless, $12.99 gloves are not going to leave you stranded on a pitch black bike route the way a $5 light may. I say, give the Bell gloves a shot. If they don't work out as bicycle gloves, they are good for other autumn and winter activities. Today, I inspected them again, side-by-side with my Pearl Izumis that cost $27. For the life of me, I can't see or feel a difference.
