Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

What do you think....?

What do you think of these gloves?

They have those Gel Strips at the bottom. I never had gloves with those. Does anyone have gloves with those? I'm not sure how comfortable that would be.

Also I can't find anywhere to buy these in the color I want besides their website...

I couldn't find a pic of the side with the gel things, so you'll have to click the link.

gel in gloves is unnecessary, its just disguising the fact that you don't have a good fit on your bike. my opinion I guess (i use a long fingered glove with zero padding).

I guess I could see gel gloves if you were really irritated by road vibrations.

I was looking at those because I have LG gloves now that I bought a few years ago, and I really like them, but they are deteriorating. So was looking to replace them with something similar. But mine don't have the gel things.
