    Nice... will look into these. The brand sounds familiar -- might have been what I saw recommended when this topic was last brought up.

    I gotta make a run there this weekend... I'll check them out. This might work super well as long as I like how breathable they are...

    Cheers -- Looking into these as well.

    I am using Dakine Cross X gloves. I wouldn’t exactly call them lightweight, but they haven’t gotten excessively hot in my experience. They offer some decent protection and seem like they’ll last a while. My dog used one as a chew toy but only damaged part of the velcro fastener haha.

    On the gravel bike I use Giro Xnetic gloves which have been awesome.

    not enough.
    been running 100% gloves recently. Pretty good after several months of rough riding, so far. I had the same problem with my fox gloves where the stitching just disintegrated. We'll see how the 100%'s do.

    I've been using my first pair of handup for a while now. They are more light weight than durable (by design I imagine), but I've got a full season on them and they are in fine shape. I'm confident they'll make it through another at least.

    I normally get 2 seasons of regular riding out of my Handups. Fox Rangers gave me a good couple weeks before the seams gave out.

    I usually don't ride with gloves but when I do, I use the Fox Flexair.

    I'm a Handup bro as well.

    Their summer gloves are good but scratch my face if I dab sweat.

    No gloves! It's the lightest weight and longest lasting glove out there.

    SLC folks...just rode lost lad. That is a phenomenal descent! It's a bit of a slog to get up there, but not too bad and definitely worth it. I'm just bummed it took me so long to find it.

    If anyone is looking for new shoes 5.11 does sales on 5/11 so keep that in mind.

    Little bit of this and that
    Giro Remedy XII's, they've held up to 1 season of riding so far and are pretty breathable.

    City creek. How are those other climbs? We're assuming we went the hardest way.

    Installed a Absolute Black oval 32. Super well made, beautiful machine work, super light.
    Can’t say it’s much different, some gain in traction, feels a bit smoother. But it sure looks good.

    I keep forgetting about that trail. Keep meaning to ride it but always just ride the sled when I drive that way. Haha
