    @Sunny- Your Facebook page mods seem clueless ....or are feigning it , What happened to the new gloves you told me about at IBW?
    Not that I'm accepting anything but assuming for a moment that we did actually have such a conversation, what made you think that I would discuss it with you on an open forum?

      As a matter of fact, if there is anything avlbl, you can expect it from the man himself. I mean, what's there to feign about it. Anyways, things are on a roll, and now we can't wait either.

      Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
      The girl said, 'NO!'


      And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

        I'm guessing the person who replied to my query on Fb genuinely didn't know. But since last time- when the Hyperion was about to be launched- Sunny did tell us in advance (if I'm not mistaken), I asked it here...

        The fact that I (and others here) are prospective customers? Would that be reason enough?

        P.S. We did have the convo on Day 2 and I'm sure it wasn't the beer talking!

          • @bbsrailfan You can check out The helmet paradise near lalbagh front gate. He stocks some DSG stuff. Last I checked, he had a few models of DSG gloves including revive and nitro. He MAY give a small discount too upon bargaining.

                        Go for the Cramster Breezer or Cramster Eclipse for pure budget oriented base.

                        Breeezer hands down, at least when compared to DSG stuffs. And moreover it's a good VFM stuff considering the price point. But why not Eclipse, try that.

                        Cheers!

                          • I came across this store at HSR layout called "Lets Gear Up" - they stock AStars, DSGs and Spartans. Seem a better option than Orion. I tried the DSG Rage, but wasn't very happy with it. Spartan Healios weren't available in my size. Quality wise, I found Spartans superior to DSG in terms of padding. I wanted to check DSG Tritons, but they didn't have it in stock . Anyone here used the DSG Triton? Ho does it compare to the Helios, as they both are in the same price bucket?

                            Biking is not about how many Km/h you put on your Speedo. It's about how many miles you put on your Odo. Ride Safe, Ride Long!

                              If you riding is basically in cold weather most of the time, then DSG Triton is the one for you. If you want something comfortable as a removable liner and air flow at the same time for summer and wind protection and some water resistance to an extent, then go for Spartan Helios. Or if you want an affordable all weather jacket, go for Cramster Breezer or Eclipse.

                              DSG Triton isn't the best deal when it comes to jackets, in my personal opinion. I'd stay away from Triton from both a quality and usage persective.

                                Very happy to see that they finally opened the store. Last time i went there was only a godown. Finally there is an alternative to adventureontherocks.
