100% Simi gloves

100% Simi gloves

THE NEW SIMI gloves from 100% use perforated leather on the back of the hand for protection and a thin Clarino palm for maximum grip and feel, and look very similar to Giro's excellent Remedy Xs.

The cut is good, and we really like the oversized Velcro closure on the outside of the hand, which allows for a close fit. Padding in all the right places helps protect the back of the hand should you take a spill.

Unlike other brands that use clumpy fabric on the fingertips, 100% use a tech thread on the thumb and index finger for touchscreen compatibility, though we did snag the thumb fabric on ours on a gear cable, leaving us wondering how much longer it'll last.

The overall feel is great and there's enough protection on the back of the hand to ward off brambles without it feeling clumpy or obtrusive, while the thin palm with its perforations feels great on the bar.

PRICE 52$

Merida Big Seven 100

We've rolled up to our local woods, with a meandering blue trail, some natural wooded tracks and a bit of fire road chucked into the mix to see how the Big Seven 100 tackles trails that entry-level riders are likely to cut their teeth on.

COMMENCAL EL CAMINO 3

Commencal are going from strength to strength at the moment and they’ve taken their tough trail hardtail bang up to date with 650b wheels. With its skinny rims, crankset and fork, the El Camino certainly isn’t perfect and it’s the least hardcore bike here. The handling, smoothness, speed and all-round agility of the basic bike still make it a real blast for technical trail riding though, and it’s a great base for upgrading over time.
