Pros: Moderate price, comfortable
Cons: Quality control, wrist coverage

There is less coverage on the wrists than my Teknic Violators and this results in the sleeves on my suit to come out and start catching wind. Just a small annoyance.

Upon close inspection the carbon fiber is not manufactured very well. There are areas where the resin does not saturate the fabric, resulting in substantially less strength. However, it probably still provides enough abrasion resistance in a crash.

Pros: Price
Cons: looks - no bridging on pinky finger

I got these on closeout from a local dealer. Crash tested them about 6 months later - slid on tarmac about 12' left palm down resulted in a very scuffed glove but no damage on my hand until my pinky hit the curb. Pinky undamged but dislocated. Obviously i wasn't going too fast but the gloves held up well. About 3 months after using the gloves daily - the stiching started showing loose threads here and there but none of the seams split during my get-off. I kept wearing them for about another 6 months until I retired them for an upgrade.
