Gel Vent Pro
I rode with the new Gel Vent Pros for the first time yesturday. For the past ~5 years I have been using PI Pittards Carbon gloves. I had tried other manufacturers gloves but the Pittards were the only ones that I liked. I would still get hot spots, mostly during my warm ups and cool downs due to less force on the pedals and more on my hands. I would also have to take my hands off of the bars every so often and give them a good shake to relieve any discomfort. The new Gel Vents are awesome. No hot spots at all (again only one ride). They are very comfortable as there is not velco adjustment, you just pull the glove on and off. The glove is a little more snug fitting and I was afraid that I needed a larger size but the fit was perfect. The snot wiper is also a lot softer. I would say that they are definately worth the extra $8 over the Pittards.
