Yes, they provide good grip and vibration damping, though they offer minimal protection against brush or debris due to the fingerless design.
While the materials are breathable, they are not waterproof and may absorb water during heavy rain.
Poron padding is designed to absorb shock and reduce pressure on the ulnar nerve and carpal tunnel to prevent hand numbness.
Measure the circumference of your dominant hand at the widest point (excluding the thumb) and compare it against the Chiba sizing guide.
It is recommended to avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the specialized moisture-wicking properties of the materials.
Ensure you have selected the appropriate size for your hand circumference; if the fit is too snug, you may need a larger size.
Use a laundry bag when machine washing and ensure the water temperature does not exceed 30 degrees Celsius.
To ensure the best performance, select the correct size by measuring the circumference of your hand to avoid excessive bunching or restricted circulation. These mitts are compatible with all standard road, mountain, and city bike handlebars. To maintain the structural integrity of the gel padding and the elasticity of the mesh, machine wash these gloves at a maximum temperature of 30 degrees Celsius. It is recommended to use a laundry mesh bag to prevent the Velcro or fabric from snagging on other items. Always air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources to maintain the elasticity of the fit.
