Thanks Brett,
hmmm, some vented gloves sound nice...
Now that you have seen them in real life, if you wanted a pair of vented race gloves, which would you choose....???
Hows that for pressure..:-)

I'll start a new thread to get the order list happening...

The vented ones with Trick Plastic vents on the Knuckles were the ones numbered b-8045 also the PC bits on the Figertips felt better then I expected. These looked really ordinary in the bag but felt good and looked Really good on. They are all the same brand but seem to be 2 different types ie Road and Race. Also b-8048-b have vented fabric on the 3 large fingers and would be my pick of the coloureds the other venteds have mesh which is white on 1 pair you can see this in the photos, The Simpler coloured Race type patterns looked better IMHO. What did you think Yappa ?

Cheers Brett

What were the blue ones like, with that hard CF knuckle.. it looks abit chunky, but dunno if it looks ok on.

The Smaller CF bits on the back of the hands looked better IMHO but they all looked Pretty good and for about half the price you'd pay in a bike shop.

Hey guys,i 100% agree with brett, good quality stuff, :wink: but would b holding off on a full set of leathers untill Ezz gets things up & running a bit better.I'm just a bit tight fisted when it comes 2 handing over a fair wack of money when guys r just startin up.(been burnt b4) All that being said i think once this guy gets a couple of his other projects out of the way we should b gigglin'. He seems like he's put a lot of effort into it so far,& that bike gear is goin 2 b his mainstay.Once fully running he should b able 2 supply everything from helmets 2 boots or top 2 toe if u like! Only tag i could see on them was SCHOELLER, & made in sweden or switzerland, 1 of the 2. Sorry sometimes i suffer from craft, cantremember a farkn thing! Iwas speakin 2 a guy at work & he said he had heard of them in europe, & that he thought they also made alot of snow ski stuff as well, & if u think ur confused about what 2 get, i saw em & i felt like a kid in a bloody candy store, ive spent over an hour flipin back & forth AAAAHHHHHH! They all felt so gooood. :?

Brett, the vented b8045 looks a bit thicker than some of the others, is that a road glove or would you consider it a race glove.
As I don't ride on the road anymore, I want something just for the track..

madkaw,that seems like a race glove 2 me as it has the vented fingers,just my opinion, as i wouldnt like 2 b ridin in the cold with vented gloves. when we went down 2 see em, i thought they were all about the same thickness. i hate thick gloves cause i like 2 feel the controls but any i tried on felt aok, currently i wear a pair of moto sprint gloves, which really r thin as shit,& the gloves we're ordering were thicker but not so as u couldn't feel thru em, what did u reakon brett? drunken_smilie.gif

Dave the B8045 s were the pick in my opinon they felt very light when i put them on, i was quite surprised as they did look heavy. As Chris Said they all felt good on the hands. If i wasn't spending all the money i dont have on stuff for the PI trip I'd be ordering them for myself. Knuckle vents looked real trick as well. Hope this helps . I'm just so impressed Chris remembered the brand name. Onya Yappa.
Cheers Brett
