pics of you wearing KH Pulse Gloves

They are like ski gloves - huge. I'd recommend a pair of Harbinger's.
They offer the same protection, have open fingers, and are cheaper.

I have in fact just started using my KH for skiing. They are great. They
are still more like a cross country or bike glove rather than a full
downhill type. They would definitely be to hot for unicycling in
Australias Summer.

I usually have access to KH Gloves in Australia

Cheers

I'm sure it depends what type of riding you do, where you do it, etc.
But I would think this would be a turn off, not a bonus. Full fingered
gloves help when holding the handle or seat (for sif), not to mention
the added protection.

I can't say enough good things about my KH gloves.

the harbingers have half fingers. they're long enough to eliminate rub
on the seat handle, but still open for dexterity or cooling or whatever.
Plus, the back panel where you're not going to hurt yourself is a kind
of stretchy mesh.

I used to use the Harbingers but have switched to the KH gloves instead.
Even in hot weather, they are not TOO hot and the added protection for
the top halves of your fingers is worth it. Buy the KH gloves.

Mine already have holes in them, they are barely used, and never have
encountered a crashtest. They would be great winter gloves- super warm.
They feel like boxing gloves but you feel so confident in them. Nice
gloves, look hardcore, but still get holes. But I still think it was a
good purchase.

I guess it's a matter of personal preference. I think the open fingers
allow a better grip on the seat for seat it front, and on the handle.

I like mine, I have crashed in them on my coker and with the foam
padding and wrist splints your hands don't get hurt at all, when I wear
them my hands feel hot, but they never actually sweat. With my old full
fingered bike gloves my hands would sweat like crazy. My only complaint
is that one of the fingertips ripped open but it doesn’t really affect
their performance in any way. Also, after wearing them for a while they
dont seem so big. I'll have a video of me doing some Muni in them some
time this month.

in your photo they look like riding gloves not boxing gloves. I wouldn't
mine a pair of those. Are they a newer model or what?

They are great for unicycling and ....skiing. The pad at the back stops
the strap cutting, they make your wrists feel safer and are original
(for skiing)

I would not characterize them as "ski gloves", at least not the kind of
ski gloves you wear if you grew up skiing in upstate New York, Vermont,
and eastern Canada. They're basically standard bike gloves but with
fingers and wrap-around wrist support.

Yeah they're hot, but over time you get used to that. I wasn't sure I
would, but I own both KH Pulse and the Harbingers, and unless I'm going
to be taking a bunch of pictures (where half-fingers are easier) I go
with the KH, even when it's hot. Why? They feel better on the handle.
The Harbingers have the metal plate across the palm, which is great when
you REALLY need it, but in the way for general riding. Since my riding
to UPD ratio is increasing daily, I don't want to build my glove
strategy around a decreasing chance of wipeout.

In June I rode 190 miles on my GB4 36", and all but 20 were with the KH
Pulse. In the event of UPD, I'm much more concerned about wrist
protection than palm protection.

KH: if economics allow you to do a "Rev 2" on the gloves, please
consider an identical setup but with standard bike glove "half fingers".
Bike gloves combined with wrist protection...that's the thing (in this
rank amie's opinion).

Our temps wouldn't get that low. Rarely less than -1 or 2.
The KH are replacing a set of 8 YO Solomon CC Gloves. Perfect for the
job, but sure they are not extreme Gortext etc gloves.
