I don't know about the jackets you have listed, but I would suggest you add Spartan Helios to the list especially since you mentioned 'all weather'

Have a look at
1. Spartan/Aspida Helios. Already proven and are being use by many fellow riders.
2. TBG Breed. New in the game of riding jackets but very good over all.

Even I was in the same dilemma like you. After trying out jackets from many brands. My final choice was down to Helios or Breed. At the end, I settled my decision to TBG's breed. Sadly it's out of stock so just waiting for it. [emoji53]

Check Aspida icarus too... its around 2k cheaper than helios ... build quality is same as helios..but this one misses water proof pocket...Armour provisions are sealed using velcros but zips are used in helios.. rest seems to be same....

I find the fit and finish of the breed better than the Helios. The armour and overall quality seem better. It cost 8k.
Can't wait for it to be in stock. [emoji1]

I am from Bangalore so I don't have much idea of the places where you can get. For sure there must be stores selling Spartan/Aspida jackets in Delhi.
As for TBG Breed you can check out Let's Gear Up page in Facebook. They are the makers and retailers of TBG products. You can contact them there.
Hope it helps. [emoji4]

Hi Guys,

This is my first post in xBHP, great community I must say.
Anyway, I commute 30kms (in total) to office everyday. So I need a pair of gloves mainly for city riding and occasional trips which will work well in all seasons. Since I am a starter, I have limited my budget to 2-2.5K. Please suggest me which of these gloves would be suitable and suggest any other gloves that would be suitable and falls in my budget bracket.
1. Cramster Blaster Street Gloves
2. ASPIDA Phaeton Gloves
3. Zeus Spider Gloves
4. Rynox Shield Pro Gloves

Thanks in advance..

The phaeton is good and used by many xBhpians. (Reliable and well made)
The Cramster blaster is what i would buy because the way it looks and it provides good protection. ( But some people have issues with the built quality)

Don't know about zeus or rynox.

I would like to tell about my experience. My first glove was a not a proper riding glove. The second one i got was from Motosport website and it was the Scorpion klaw II. The sizing was not right and yet i managed to live with it for a while. It would be hurting after some 45 mins of riding. Then i lost it unfortunately. Then i bought Cramster Twister and im happy with it now. My hand is a bit odd so i dont find any glove suiting my size as it should. So my point is, go to any store try them and buy what suits you. Just dont go by words.

Especially gloves, shorlist them, try all of them (actually fell them on the handle bar if possible) and choose whats best for you. The feel is more important. If there is lotta padding you wont get enough feedback from the throttle and if there isnt enough padding the vibrations might be a problem. Choose accordingly.

PLEASE NEVER EVER ORDER ONLINE!

All the best!
Ride safe!
