Best cycling mitts?

[MrWill]

I'm after some to absorb a bit of vibration and add a bit of comfort.

So many out there...

I think the best I see so far is the Specialized BG gel mitt?

 

[ianrauk]

yep, excellent gloves.

You may also want to change your bar tape for thicker or add some gel pads under the tape. Spesh Bar Phat.

Got the Spesh stuff myself. Great mits.

 

[Pro Tour Punditry]

as above. Spesh BG Gel - I seem to have lost my brand new right hand glove today

 

[vickster]

Yes, Spesh gel. But go to a shop and try them and others on, comfort is important

 

[Dayvo]

More for warmth than comfort, I use Hestra mitts with fingerless/summergloves underneath with a padded palm.

These: http://hestragloves.com/no/gloves/o...#no/gloves/outdoor/windstopper-pullover-mitt/

Double tape the bars or use something underneath before taping then lesser mitts do just a good a job ,but Spesh mitts will be my next purchase as they seem to be the best just like Spesh saddles.

 

[MrWill]

Gone with the Specialized ones cheers!

 

[Sully]

wheres best place to get them did you find Will and what price were they please ?

 

[vickster]

Cheap as I can find with rapid Google - those are 2013 ones http://www.leisurelakesbikes.com/p/9074/specialized-bg-gel-mitt-sale

£30 RRP for this year it seems

Women's are cheaper!

 

[superdon]

Are these quite light weight? I want some gloves, but mainly for summer use and not too sweaty.

 

[MrWill]

Yep very lightweight. Expensive for what they are though.

 

[cyberknight]

yep, excellent gloves.

+1 i suffer with tingling hands due to trapped nerve issues , worse in the morning and the phat tape helps , by the afternoon i am ok but 1st thing i could not even hold the bars for a few miles .
