I doubt so. I know some bike magazines do reviews on gloves, but they are mostly those flashy, racing type, or winter gloves with insulation.

Anyway, having some leather is re-assuring. I never think of the fall when I ride, but I do take precautions "just in case".

The only time I went down with my bike was when I got hit from the back while stopped at a traffic light. At 0km/h, i injured my right shoulder for a month, right knee for two weeks, left hand got abrasion, some fingers numb for a few days.

I was wearing jeans and teeshirt, nothing else, cos that was my first day on the road, zero experience, zero equiptment!

if possible wear gloves , jackets , boots and a good helmet .

not like me who loves siglets , pants and sandles . thus when accident time ! here and there injuries ! but now im not gonna compromise anything regrading safety . i will put on all these as and when im going out !

TALK c*** KING!!! The other day you wear sleeveless somemore!!! (I think...)

[James71]

me wearing nolan100e, alpinestars jet gloves & alpinestars airflo jacket with "armours" (in the evening). felt silly on my first day but not anymore.

you look weirder in cast and bandage, hence the answer is

no,

wearing gear is not silly....

and its much more comfortable then bandages and casts.

[koom]

Ya lor, if not &#39;someone&#39; will say: "This has been posted many times, pls look into the threads..."

[ReBornBikeR]

The other day I saw a middle age guy stopped at the traffic lights,
he had a pair of leather gloves but wearing shorts, tee shirt, slippers and a half helmet with the straps loosely tied

At least he was wearing a leather gloves but don&#39;t know why and never expect such a character to wear leather gloves.

Looks weird and funny leh...

[bluehermit]

haha, guess i&#39;m more hardcore. i&#39;ve got my full gears (rjays jacket, rjays riding pants, rjays riding boots, progrip gloves and OGk FF helmet) before I&#39;ve gotten my license =]

whenever i ride, i ride with jacket, boots, FF, gloves and min jeans at all times. if rain, will wear the riding pants too =]

i live to ride and i ride to live.

may all of you be safe and well too&#33;

[albert668]

I wear a rjay mesh armour jacket, MHR FF, armour glove all brought from LAB.
The mesh jacket really cool under the hot sun (you won&#39;t feel warm at all esp when moving) but not sure it is really effective???
anyone want to comment?
The glove is ok except raining day when it get wet the dye will get into your hand.
Some ppl say FF is warm but I think u can always open the visor a bit for more air to come in.
The only thing that trouble me is when I park at shopping centre locking all these in the rear box can be steal easily once u r eye by someone.
But no choice if u carry it along it will be heavy.
