The Castelli Competizione 3 Fingerless Cycling Gloves are designed for adult cyclists, both male and female, seeking superior grip and optimal hand comfort on their rides. Their key benefit is enhanced handlebar control through a synthetic palm with medium-density foam padding and silicone grip. A potential caveat is that fingerless design offers less protection in colder weather or during falls. These gloves provide a balanced combination of grip, comfort, and nerve protection for diverse cycling needs.

No, these are fingerless gloves designed primarily for warmth and grip in moderate to warm conditions. They offer minimal protection from cold temperatures.
Measure the circumference of your palm excluding the thumb. Consult the Castelli sizing chart for the corresponding glove size. Ensure the fit is snug but not constricting.
It is recommended to hand wash the gloves in cool water with mild soap to preserve the materials and padding. Avoid machine washing and drying.
The CDS is an insert designed to protect the median nerve, reducing pressure and preventing numbness or tingling in the hands during cycling.
Clean your gloves after particularly sweaty rides or when they appear dirty. Regular cleaning helps maintain grip and hygiene.
While the synthetic palm and padding offer some minimal abrasion resistance, these gloves are not designed as protective gear for crash impact. They prioritize grip and comfort.
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on hand measurements. Check the Velcro closure for a secure but not overly tight fit.
Clean the synthetic palm and silicone grip areas with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure they are fully dry before use.
Verify the fit is not too tight, especially around the wrist. Ensure the CDS system is positioned correctly over the median nerve area. If persistent, consider gloves with more padding or different support features.
Setup: These gloves require no specific setup. Simply wear them on your hands before your cycling activity.
Compatibility: Designed for use with standard bicycle handlebars. They are suitable for a wide range of adult cyclists.
Care: To maintain the integrity and performance of your gloves:
