These are from a manufacturer I'm not familiar with, FX. The model is called the Incline. Got 'em for about $16, which seems like a pretty good buy. Hoping to explore Mission Trails this weekend.
Shows how hard the mountain bikers are

The problem I had was finding gloves with enough padding for the road bike. But Full finger mountain bike gloves do save the brambles cutting into the fingers.
