Needed some new gloves and had money burning a hole in my pocket so down to BikeStop in stevenage and had a look around.
I had read reviews on the net about Knox and they know what there talking about in safety.
Tried the Handroid on and it felt amazing, so comfortable, the kangaroo leather is so comfortable. Granted they do make you look a little like a power ranger but they have a lot of protection and skid plates on the palm, scaphoid protection, but they feel amazing when riding. Not at all restictive and super comfy.
Really like the Boa lacing system, one hand on and off, click up and pull to get off, click down and dial to tighten up, so much better fit than velcro.

Off to pick up my new Sidi Vortice boots tomorrow so Ill let you know what I think to them once Ive tried them out.

+ 1 on the Handroids, I read that they are big sizes so if you normally wear size Large a Medium would be big enough, did you guy's find this ? Thx Cool

I found that the sizes were right, I'm a large in Dainese and large in Knox.

Best thing is to try them, I found them far more comfortable than anything else available at the moment.

I have a set, awesome gloves. The feedback through the palm is fantastic,the sliding protectors don`t inhibit covering the break or clutch. Comfy from second ride and more importantly I spotted a write up post crash and they did the job very well for the rider.
