I got some new gloves and thought I'd post my feedback on them. They are the Alpinestar Radiant Drystar model. I have ridden 5 or 6 times in fairly cold weather (40f) with them and they have kept my hands nice and warm.
What I like about them:
gauntlet length (no air getting in between jacket and glove),
semi-textured palms (for nice grip on the grips),
nice and warm.
What I am still thinking about:
The fingers are not textured and they seem to slip a little when clutching, especially in cold weather,
The draw string/bungy on the wrist is really hard to cinch down, especially when trying to do it with gloved hand,
Very small amount of armor in them
I paid $41.00 on flee bay for them with free shipping, so worth the dough so far. I think these are last year's model. I saw the same named glove in a Cycle Gear store, but they seemed to be made out of a neoprene type material and these ones are more a nylon material. Anyway, that's it.
