Rynox Rampage Pro Gloves Review (after 2.5 months usage)

If anyone is planning to buy Rynox Rampage Pro Gloves, please don't.
They just don't last long. Please see the image of the condition of my gloves after 2.5 months of usage.
This is not some Rs. 500 gloves. It costs Rs. 1850. You can get better gloves at that price from other brands.




Other Better Quality Gloves. I'm planning to buy one of these. Any Recommendations ?

I suggest you go with something that has leather which canactually resist wear compared to a textile. Look at:
1. Aspida Pegasus Short cuff
2. THE BREED GEAR - TBG Street Gloves Knox SPS

All ce rated armours.
Good quality mesh with optimum air flow.
Rough use

Extend your budget a bit more and go for the Tornado Pro. By Far the best jacket out there. Outer Shell+ Liners+ Protectors all top notch. Had been using the Air GT around 2 years back but then I got to try a friend's Tornado Pro and I saved for it and got a Tornado Pro around a year back and handed over the Air GT to my brother. Had faced some issue with the Tornado Pro when I got it but when I reported the same to Rynox they replaced the piece for me.
Took a fall at Amboli Ghat with the Tornado Pro also but the jacket sustained the crash and I still continue to use it. Since then the jacket has been doing well till now (touch wood). Thus can vouch for the same coz more than how the product reads on paper it more about how it really fared at the time of the fall.

So what would you recommend ? Tornado Pro or BB Ladakh ?? Which one is the better one out there ?

There is another jacket with CE level 2 armours from PSG. Also, armours on BB iRideiLive are equivalent to level 2 CE, it has a steel mesh 3d construction and seems too good. But yeah sastec makes Nemesis 2 a great deal ! Also the 600D fabric on both iRideiLive and Nemesis 2. Remember BB is known for customer satisfaction and they even repair jackets in case of crash at a nominal price.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Solace Defender plus is also a good one with level 2 SAS TEC. I am using Solace Sprint.

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Hi guys, I need a jacket for long rides or touring at around 5000 INR. Can extend 1k

i am really thin. my chest size is 34, waist is 32 and length is 26. What size jacket should I buy? Most of them 'S' sized jackets are above 36. only XS sized jackets are 34-36.

I need a jacket which is waterproof and has thermal lining for wearing it always.

Additionally, wanted to query about something else. I get allergies and cold with runny nose whenever I ride bike. Even when I ride for 30 Kms, wearing a shirt, makes my chest congested with mucus and nose blocked. Does anybody have the same issue?
I usually wear my raincoat all day long to cope with the wind. But it looks ugly and stupid on a sunny day, and people laugh at me😁😁. Thus wanted to get a jacket for all weather.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

PS- I will buy online as I am from north east

Should the fit of the jacket be tight fit or a little loose? For ex if my chest is 34, should I buy 36 or should I buy 34 only??

Thanks

I really like the BB ladakh jacket, but the smallest size available is 38. When I called their customer care, they told me that jackets are supposed to be worn a little loose. Thus my enquiry

[anirudhkamboj]

Re: Universal : Riding Gear Thread

Should be proper fit, dont go for a loose fit. In case of a crash, armours on a loose fit will move around.

Should be snug fit. By snug fit I mean it can remain loose at some areas but should be tight around the armours that can be achieved using the tightening straps. BB Ladakh has an issue where the leather stitch around the neck becomes torn and brittle due to sweat and Indian weather conditions. Better go for iRideiLive jacket from BB. Xplorer is also a great option.
