Types of bike gloves
Bike gloves for men are an important part of cycling gear, bringing many advantages to the cyclist. Equally important is to choose the right type for the right type of cycling and the conditions, so that one can reap their benefits. There are different types of bike gloves for mountain biking, road biking, and for hot and cold or wet weather conditions.
- Road bike gloves – are designed as half-finger gloves. Size and fit of road bike gloves are key features. They need to feel snug, like a second skin. Comfort plays such an important role, as there cannot be any pressure point causing numbness or chafing during long rides. Therefore, there shouldn’t be any wrinkles when gripping on the handlebars. They are made from elastic well-ventilated, moisture-wicking materials.
- Mountain bike gloves are full-finger cycling gloves most of the time. In the summer conditions, they can be better ventilated. Considering the size and fit, they shouldn’t be as snug as the road bike gloves, but they shouldn’t be too loose either so that they can provide a good grip. To avoid pressure points, it is good to leave some space at the fingertips. The palm surface is made of grip-providing material, with as few seams as possible. Mountain bike gloves can also come with cushioning and back-hand protectors, which are especially recommended for more extreme biking.
- Bike gloves for different weather conditions – as the weather starts to change you will need a suitable pair of bike gloves. They will need to be able to insulate your hands from the cold and wet and that is why they are made of wind and water-proofing materials. For winter, they are insulated or they should allow space for separate thin-liner gloves, should you need them.
To sum up, to make the right choice of bike gloves you need to consider how and when you would be using them. Essentially, you will opt for half-finger gloves for road biking, but full-finger cycling gloves are a better choice for off-road trails since they provide more protection and even more grip.
