  • If anybody could please tell me where I can get black(L or XL) balaclava in Delhi. I left almost no stone unturned @ Karol Bagh but in vain. Might be I didn't visit the right shop but I have wandered a lot there. Needed urgently.
    Thanx in advance.

    • Picked up the DSG Revive Gloves finally. Got them in 24hrs flat after transferring funds to DSG. This was pretty quick.

      The fit and feel is perfect except that the right glove is slightly loose compared to the left one. Anyway, my bike is due tomorrow and will see how it fares. DSG offered to exchange them for a size smaller if needed. Overall i was happy with the buying experience with DSG.

      I bought the Cramster Raptor jacket. The inner thermal lining is of no use and is stashed away. Feels great and gives a feeling of safety as well.

                      Helmet - i have Indian AGV. Got to see whether i can try to get one from US. only problem is that friend already has a big list so cant load him up

                      Jacket - am planning to get the Joe Rocket jacket - yet to order. i will be getting it by month end.

                            • want to pick up a pair of gloves for my toures.

                              I am confused between 2 models.

                              1. Trg 2 from cramster(full gauntlet) - 2300 rs
                              2. Twister from cramster(semi gauntlet) -1500 rs

                              PLanning to take this glove on my leh trip.

                              the twister looks more feasable and it is a lot cheaper. would not mind paying the extra 750 if the glove is worth it.

                              is there anyother glove within 2500 rs and better than the above models available?

                                Here is my first hand experience.

                                I bought the Cramster Raptor jacket and used it only 5-6 times since it was bought a few weeks back and already it has a tear near the left sleeve. When I went to buy it, I also saw the TRG2 gloves and a couple of pairs had a tear here and there or stitches coming off.

                                I am going to get my jacket replaced. My suggestion is AVOID cramster. The quality just sucks.

                                Instead I bought DSG Revive gloves. The leather quality is way better than Cramster and feels better, fits better, and i think the leather is slightly stronger and thicker than the cramster gloves. The Revive is all leather with kevlar/carbon fiber protection for fingers and knuckles. I have been using them for almost a month now (twice the amount of time i spent with my jacket) and the quality is definitely better than cramster.

                                Just forget cramster and go with DSG. The revive gloves cost Rs. 1990.00/-
