So what I ask is , has anybody ever heard of or used the brand Five ???

I need a new pair of sport/tourers & the guy was trying to flog them really hard , just dont wanna fork out $160 for CRAP !! :thumbup:

Ant West wears them (according to their website)...

Along with Claudio Corti, Karel Abraham and Fabian Foret, along with many others.

Never heard of them myself, but they look pretty decent.

Send Ant West a tweet and ask him what they're like??? @antwest13

I got a pair of leather gauntlet gloves off eBay for $49 + $6 shipping and they are excellent!

They feature a carbon knuckle guard, Thinsulate lining and, finger knuckle guards etc.

Dunno if I can post the link, but PM me if you're interested in saving a heap of money!

Cheers,
Rick

P.S. And before you ask, I have been wearing them for over 2hrs to and from work nearly every day for 6mths and they still look new!

If I had the spare cash last year when one of the local bike shops was closing down, they had a pair of GP Five gloves - down from $400 to @ $300

They felt like I wasn't wearing gloves.

Five are awesome Dan. I'd go with them any day

Just PMed Rick about the Gauntlets , no harm in looking :thumbup:

These are the ones the guy was trying to sell me & to be honest , they were REALLY nice

Just PMed Dan about the gauntlets!

LOL!

For $200, you could get 4 pair of the ones I bought - and I'll bet after 6mths of use with no sign of wear, that the $200 ones wont last 4 times as long!

Cheers,
Rick
