I bought the new Alpinestars Drystar gloves for winter and they're
ing ace. Barely any noticeable size difference between them and my SP2s, but a hell of a lot warmer and waterproof.

Small? Medium? ffs I need XL and my hands are not large. Good idea to get some slack so you can wear some thermal inners anyway.
I just got some Frank Thomas gloves today, see what they're like tomorrow. By the looks of things they're due a good test run! I really like my Alpinestar GP Pro's but they're getting just a little too cold now.
Got a neck thingy as well, not sure about it, think I might get a balaclava.

They have some two fingered gloves which they seem to think are good. I bought two sets of their winter gloves with knuckle protection... one in L and one in XL so I can wear the larger ones with liner gloves inside and the others when it's raining but warmer. Extravagant but I'm worth it.remal said:

Just ordered these, but won't have them for a week or so.

hehe banana man !!
Banana man?
Are you saying I look like a banana? Are you? Do you think I'm yellow? Do I look like a piece of fruit to you? Do I?

Anyway, gloves are okay, was a bit miffed that they leaked a little around the cuffs but it was very, very wet this morning and they are warm and comfy otherwise with decent abrasion protection. Overall 6/10, not bad.
Thermal neck thingy that can fit over chin and nose is superb!
