Anyone using these gloves for biking? These are the best ones I found in my 15 years of relentless [and passionate] pursuit of perfection which resulted in buying about 30 or so pairs of gloves. They were not designed for biking though.

N.B. Even though my hands are not large at all, the large fit me just fine.
N.B. Shipping to the US was both fast and cheap [this was my 1st ever web purchase from overseas].

Hi Paul, but doesn't these neoprene gloves cause your hands to sweat, and feel clammy? I have certainly not been wearing gloves for as many years as you have, and only within the last year have I worn gloves, compared to 30 years of not wearing them, and I'm beginning to feel/believe that gloves cause more problems than solve (At least for warm weather use).

Not at all. I did a 70 miler and dozens of 30 milers with them + I use them in everyday commuting. They provide perfect cushioning [I use cork handlebar tapes] and I never even noticed any sweating. Maybe my hands sweat but it's nothing compared to my head inside my helmet. After every ride, no matter how short it is, I need to cool down my head under cold water. Even in the winter. And my helmet has a gazillion holes. Best regards, Paul

Ever try to use twist-grip shifters with sweaty hands? Gloves make this much easier.

I like Neoprene gloves. Mine have insulated leather palms, and work well for me down to about 40F.
