Giro Pivot winter gloves

Giro Pivot winter gloves

SO GOOD
When the mercury freezes in the thermometer, these are the gloves you want to have on. They're the warmest on test and the soft leather palm stays stuck to your grips.

Despite being on the bulkier side, control inputs are precise and they never get in your way. The Pertex outer shell ensures they're extremely waterproof yet remain breathable while the subtle looks mean they're usable off the bike too.

NO GOOD
They do feel on the bigger side until you grip the bar. We could've done without the small gel palm section too, and they're pretty pricey.

PRICE 89$

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.
