Racer Gloves

[yelow748]

We tried on some Racer Gloves during the LaDucati Day, but didn't buy them.
So I sent Mr.Lee block an email. He replied in a few days, he even remembered
us !
So I called and left a message, a few hours latter he returned the call and said
come on down he would meet us around 3:30~4:00ish Saturday. His day off !
Needless to say we were a little early driving down to Morgan Hill from Fremont. Bought two pair of Carbon All Weather Gloves.
Review to come soonish.

Thanks Lee !!!

Short Glove Review

A short review on the Racer All Weather Carbon Glove.
Off the self fit is very good for my size ( Large ) with just a tad
bit of extra length at the end of the pinky finger.
Getting the glove over the jacket sleeve will take some practice.
By no means deters the glove from keeping your hands nice and warm.
Seeing the weather was excellent on Sunday we had went out for a 4 1/2ish
hour ride. Down the coast and back up through the SC area.
My fingers did start to get chilled while we were in the shaded areas for
a few hours as the temps dropped, then add the wind chill. It was getting
quite cool.
Have not tested them in the wet, but the gloves did a fantastic job of
keeping our hands nice and warm.
Reference glove. My trusty Helimot B11's and her Helimot 365's with liners
were our go to ride everywhere any time gloves.
Now me thinks these Racer Gloves shall let our trusty Helimot's with over 25k
miles on them take a break this winter.
If anyone has any questions about the glove just ask.

I have a pair of the high racers from 6-7 years ago. The leather has held up to so much abuse, and the carbon fiber palm sliders and knuckles are comfortable for days of touring. I ride every day, so these gloves see all sorts of shit weather and the kangaroo leather is still soft and the cow leather looks and feels like new. I treat them once every 6 months with leather milk, i found mink oil to be too softening

I'm happy with mine as well, however I found that the fabric/rubber bits on the finger tips is all but worn away - not a critical failure protection-wise, but kind of a bummer.
