Winter Cycling Gloves
admin | Sunday, March 14th, 2010 | No Comments »
A good cyclist doesn’t put away the bike just because it’s snowing outside. He bundles up, grabs his trusty gloves, hits the road, and peddles on against the elements. It’s because he loves cycling that he wants to cycle, but it’s because of the proper equipment that he’s able to continue cycling in cold weather conditions.
Cycling is a serious sport and winter cycling is a serious and sometimes dangerous business. The right equipment is your most important weapon against a cold season that doesn’t care if you freeze to death or not. Since frostbitten hands make for an unpleasant cycling experience, one of the first steps of winter cycling preparation is to purchase weapon number one: Winter cycling gloves. They’re going to make cycling more about fun and fitness and less about pain.
Winter weather temperatures rise and fall depending on the stage of the season. Early Winter gloves by Assos are widely used by cyclists during autumn and early winter conditions. If it drops below freezing, a recommended alternative is the Northwave arctic glove. The glove is lined with thermal fleece to fight off windchill. You can’t make a trek across Antarctica in these gloves, but it will keep your hands safe and toasty in UK winter weather.
If you shop by brand, some of the most popular brands of cycling gloves are Fox Giro, Assos, and Northwave. For frugal cyclers, brands with more economical prices are Altura , Pearl, and Avenir. If price isn’t a factor, more expensive brands on the market are Campagnolo, Cannondale, and SIDI.
Gloves are one of the many products that can keep you cycling throughout the year. Spend plenty of time reading reviews and selecting just the right pair for you. Good luck and happy cycling.
