Redline Flight Gloves: Review Initiated


Our friends sent us some great Redline Bicycles products to review, one of them is the R550 Road bike that Moe is reviewing for BikeCommuters.com. The other is this sweet set of gloves. Meet the Redline Flight Gloves. Priscilla will be testing these puppies out. I actually prefer it that way since everyone will know that she’s my lady since her hands will adorn my name.

Here’s the specs courtesy of Fat BMX Mag:

Never one to be satisfied with perfection, Redline has again improved upon their popular FLIGHT glove – and there’s more to it than just a change of color. The new Redline Fight Glove in WHITE and black is being ridden by National, US and World Champions, along with Olympic hopefuls. Here are the new features:
· New, shorter closure strap.
· Full “RL� pattern, screened in silicon throughout the Amara palm

– for extra grippage.
· Easy-to-pull Tab at wrist with silicon grippers.
· Pre-curved articulated fingers with vented nylon mesh backing.
· Full thumb Terry cloth wipe.
· Woven nylon backing material.
· Super strong cross-point finger tips.
· Custom molded rubber-armor knuckle guards.
· Eight sizes available ranging from Youth X-small to adult X-large.

This thing is sweet…look at it, it’s got my name ALL OVER it!

Big “RL” on the gloves indicate my mark on Priscilla.

Redline Bicycles Likes MtnBikeRiders


Our friends over at Redline Bicycles were cool enough to send us an 10×10 EZ-up with the Redline logo. I’ve always loved Redline because of their cool bikes but more so because we share the same initials!

So if we’re ever at an event, just look for us underneath the Redline Bicycles Tent!

Now if you’re wondering if we’re really short here at MtnBikeRiders because the tent wasn’t fully expanded…well ya we are. But I wanted to show off the Redline Logo on the top of the tent…sweet eh?

Big thanks to Gork at SBS!
