    Even I would like this info... Gloves with decent knuckles and wrist protection but mainly for city riding (lower speeds)

    Thanks

    The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

      I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

                  Thanks tibby... I think I framed my query wrong, causing the misunderstanding...

                  Im looking for city riding (low speed) gloves with decent knuckle and wrist protection...

                  PS: If you name some models, I promise to use the search function to look for reviews

                          Yes they have good discounts. Recent brand on discount is teh fieldsheer. This is not mesh but textile. I did made a mess in size. I went for medium wheras small would have been a perfect fit. But its ajustable so no qualms. Go as per charts no need for one up size. Thats tehe problem with fieldsheer.

                          Sure Bro, but textile is too hot for the present weather ride so still waiting for a good and long ride. WAs bit confused with alpinestar, fieldsheer, and SS. decided on Fieldsheer sports congo textile but size was not there. So got SS but happy with my choice now

                          • Also got the shift racing shin/knee guard. However not impressed with it. would get some better option in near future.

                            Next on my list is the scorpion exo 400 scar helmet. Inputs are more than welcome
