I have the $25 Carbon BG gloves, I still get hand numbness. But they are much better then the $35 Pearl Izumi Gel Gloves(I never use them anymore only after 2 months). Theres much more padding to protect the Ulnar Never area in the BG glove. I notice after about 1 1/2 hours my right hand sometimes starts to get numb. Thats alot of riding in 3 days.
