Price Paid:  $1900.00 at Custom built.

Favorite Ride:
Cannondale

Bike Setup:
Cannondale R1000 CAAD 5
Dura Ace gears
Integra shifters, crank and BB
Fizik Arione Saddle
Nashbar carbon seatpost and stem
FSA K-Wing bars

Summary:
I've tried many different brands of glove. These gloves If you get hand numbness, all the carbon parts in the world won't help as much as the P.I. Gel vent. The Ironman pro gloves are the only gloves that can touch the Gel vent for avoiding numbness, but they just don't have P.I.'s durability. These gloves are a little expensive, but absolutely worth it and just as significant to riding comfort as your saddle.

Strengths:
Durable, and as close to perfect as you can get in a road glove.

Weaknesses:
They are pull off gloves. Looks great, but velcro would be easier.

Similar Products Used:
Adidas, Bell, Cannondale, Spenco Ironman and Pearl Izumi gel-lite.
