Cycle Gear may still have some of the BKS Silverstone gloves left on sale for $129.00. They're the ones that I use when it is warm out.

I'm wondering how quality leather (cow or kangaroo) road race gloves would be counted as inferior to something with metal studs in it.

Pimpit

its kinda funny because we are required to were leather from the neck to the toes but its not good enough for our hands?

scott, the leather in pants and jackets is quite a bit thicker than gloves. debating whether or not you agree with the rules wont change them. and by the way the gloves are still requires to be leather, but now we need kevlar as well

The Kevlar gloves and full leather requirements were given to me a while ago. Also started a thread asking what the guys knew. So, head to toe leather is a must too?

loopy

i cant remember the et that full leather id needed but it is a must for safety!
i can see were they are coming from on the Kevlar , and yes it is more expensive but all in all it better than a skin graft right ?? as in any competitive sport you have to pay to play

loopy

i traded my sp2 gloves in for bks today so im covered lol

R1DON

you only need to be head to toe if you run 120+ mph

STR8UP41908

i thought u can wear textile instead of leathers?

R1DON

no, they require leather

STR8UP41908

cool thanks man...i guess i wont go out and buy textile. I was thinking it would be cooler to wear in the summer time sitting out there, but oh well it was a thought

FYI, Frank Thomas Xti Kevlar gloves are on clearance for $50 at Cycle Gear. About 6 pairs left, mostly XL (red / blue) with one S and one 2XL (black). I picked up pair in XL, which fit and I usually wear L in gloves. Nice gloves for $50.
