Guide to Mountain Bike Gloves
There are lots of different categories that fall under mountain biking, due to the different types of riding out there. This guide to cycling gloves should help clear it up. Here are the basics… XC/Cross Country are designed to be as light as possible because you want to stay as cool as possible but still offer finger grazing protection if you do take a tumble. All Mountain/Trail are similar to XC but offer a bit more protection for the tougher terrain and will hold up on the best of trails. Finally Downhill/Freeride offer the most protection for the obvious reasons, whether you are a weekend warrior or full time racer, these gloves will provide the protection you require.
