      Hmm, looks pretty posh compared to my Cramsters! They are also a free size&bionic, but at half the cost. I can see the difference in quality!

        Actually they arent as pricey... just that DSG loves to make more money from people like us... thanks to their 'monopoly'!

        • Yeah, but these are non-bionic from what I can see. So they could have been priced lesser.

            These are not the Bionic ones..! Check this for the Bionic one..priced at 3,800/-

            This holds true..bcoz DSG vaala makes products for the superbikers..not for people who have street bikes.

              Yeah, I've seen these, Mithun uses them I guess.
              Anyways, you are right-for that price they are good for SBKs. I got my Cramster mesh jacket for 4300!

                  I heard you get FOX knee+elbow for some 1600-2000-is it true? Are they bionic?

                        Will put it up on the classifieds tonight.

                        Thanks!

Although i do love the Spike's design as well. goes great with my helmet. heehee. in any case i have used it just twice. and my bro has used it once on his ride to pune and back. would love to keep the jacket for him as hes larger than me and get the falcon separately. But my mom would throw me out if I had 2 jackets in the house. lol. She's already gien me an earful for spending so much on riding gear. what to do. work life is not giving me enough time to ride ya.. anyways. hopefully someone will buy it from me.
                        Same here, I bought XXL , but turns out I'm not as bulky as I thght I was !! Cramsters XL fits me pretty well, but somehow DSG XL isn't giving me freedom of movement.

                        So off goes DSG and in comes Cramster !!

                              • @inder.cool&satyenpoojary: FOX pricing sounds good. How are they in comparison with Cramster? I already got Cramster knee&elbow long back, but just wanna know for recommending to others.

                                @Binoy: Those are good for city&short highway rides. I have them. For longer rides you may want a proper touring glove. Range above Rs.2000. Since I don't like full gauntlets, I went with the Cramster Twist Touring gloves-semi gauntlet, for some Rs.1400. DSG has some good stuff too.
