GLOVES

The average cost of a pair of bike gloves is £46.52. 14% of people that own a pair said that a RiDE Recommended was a factor in their decision to buy. 67.5% said they rated their gloves above average.

Andrew Rimmer from Middlesex bought a pair of BKS GP2000s for £165 and wears them for commuting. "They are worth every penny. They're my only gloves and I've worn them solidly for the last two and a half years

without any problems. They are so comfortable."

Mick Blakely from Northants also owns BKS 2000s. He liked the security but not the price. "If I was racing I wouldn't wear anything else, but it's an extortionate amount."

Tony Hewitt of North Devon bought his BKS gloves at the NEC for a bargain price of £45. "I bought them because of the quality, no gloves I've ever owned, were 'warm', but the BKSs have been as good as any, especially with the silk liner."
