Troy Lee Designs Ace gloves


A good set of gloves go unnoticed – they grip well, don’t bunch up, and don’t restrict your movement. Plus – they keep your skin in place when they need to.

TLD are pretty good at making gloves that fi t that description, and the Ace glove is a great seamless cuff design with a lightweight upper, sweat wipe, and for the social media savvy – they’re touchscreen compatible. No more using your nose, elbow (or worse) to answer calls or start and stop your Strava app. They’re also available in blue, orange and fl uoro yellow.

PRICE 49.95$

You can’t insert much of the valve into the inflator head, so you have to be careful to avoid leaks. Price $33 w/16g cartridge
