    Could be Andrew, Giovers being rather cryptic in his suggestions and hasn't said whether it's a Glove manufacture, Bike Dealer or Accessories outlet like J&S?

    Aint hard just to post a link is it and then there's no confusion! :rolleyes:

    Had a quick look but they've got next to no stock compared to Demon Tweeks, combine that with the forum discount and it's a no brainer.

    Ta anyway Giv! ;)

    Ya not wrong there!

    Tried some SP1's on at the Honda Dealership on friday and the only one's that felt comfy were triple XL FFS!

    I aint got big hands but must have long fingers as anything less than XXXL felt tight when clenched! :eek:

    I just ordered GP Pro's on the back of this. Having tried lots of gloves ive gone for Large, i hope to god they fit the same as with other brands.

    If youre looking for a really good well priced pair of gloves though i'd recommend BKS Silverstone as they are now £50-90 and have lasted me over 3 years, i just fancied a change.

    I'd give em a ring on Monday and maybe halt your order until you've tried some on locally!

    My current Gortex IXS Gloves are XL

    When I tried Alpinestars on at my Honda dealer I needed XXXL, and my hands are certainly not 'Farmers hands'! :eek:

    Scott Leathers do a summer glove for £70. Tried them on at a bike show once and they seemed smashing.

    Dont panic me like that. Ive just trawled round all my local dealers and they are all closed this sunday and im at work all week. All my old gloves are a large (not alpines) & others gloves ive tried on in stores are also large and seemed ok. (fingers crossed).

    Any idea on why the GP Tech are more expensive than GP Pro? I cant tell from their site http://www.alpinestars.com/moto/gloves.html

    My opinion is that although tech are more expensive the Pro are a better glove I can't remember exactly why but at the time that's the choice I made.

    Check out the classified section I have a pair of like new, hardly used Dainese full metal racer gloves for sale. The rrp is £240 but would sell to a forum member for £100 plus postage. Pm if interested. If no one interested will eBay next week.
