Gloves by Type of Cyclist

Mountain Bike Gloves

Mountain bike gloves are usually long, very resistant, and offer a high level of protection. However, depending on what the cyclist is looking for, they will have different features.

If the cyclist wants better touch, sensitivity, and grip, they will choose gloves without padding in the palm. If they are looking for better cushioning, protection, and vibration absorption, gloves with gel or foam inserts in the palm are ideal, such as for enduro, cross-country, all-mountain, or freeride. They usually have knuckle protections, often made of D3O, and TPR inserts on the finger phalanges for better impact protection.

Road Bike Gloves

Road cycling gloves usually offer greater sensitivity, grip, and comfort and have less protection. In this discipline, the hands remain more static and are therefore more sensitive to the cold, so these gloves are usually made with thicker materials.

Triathlon Bike Gloves

Triathlon gloves usually provide high levels of breathability and a perfect touch and grip on the handlebars. Their characteristics are very similar to road cycling gloves, but they are used for triathlon competitions.

Urban Bike Gloves

Urban cycling gloves prioritize comfort, should be lightweight with hardly any protection, and very practical since they will be used daily and usually for short trips, making it quick and easy to put on and take off the glove.

Gloves by Season and Time of Year

Short Gloves

Short gloves are ideal for warm climates as they have uncovered fingers and only protect the back and palm. They are usually very breathable and lightweight, and some of them have gel pads to absorb road vibrations.

Long Gloves

Long gloves provide greater protection as the fingers are covered. They are typically used in colder times of the year as they are made with thicker fabrics and have silicone inserts on the fingers for better grip and control of the levers. However, some are made of breathable mesh and can also be used in summer.

Winter Gloves

Riding a bike in winter can be somewhat unpleasant if we don't have the correct protection against low temperatures. Therefore, winter gloves must ensure greater insulation to keep the interior at a stable temperature and prevent our fingers from freezing, making it difficult to feel the touch and operate the brake and shift levers properly or ride correctly.
Thus, winter gloves usually have a longer cuff and are made with thicker materials, a thermal lining that insulates from the cold, and in some cases, a waterproof membrane to protect from rain.

Summer Gloves

In summer, with high temperatures, we may be reluctant to wear gloves as we think they will make us sweat even more. However, using gloves in warm climates can be beneficial as the hand will not sweat, allowing for a perfect grip on the handlebars at all times, and we will also be more protected.
Summer gloves are characterized by their high levels of ventilation as they are made of breathable and lightweight mesh. Additionally, they have uncovered fingers, allowing direct contact with the brake and shift levers.

Questions about Bike Gloves

What Features Should Bike Gloves Have?

Bike gloves should have these three essential aspects: protection, comfort, and touch. To achieve this, the palm will be made of different materials and fabrics, some with padded protections and/or silicone inserts that allow a better grip on the handlebars and prevent the hands from slipping.
The back can incorporate waterproof and/or windproof membranes to prevent water from entering the glove and allow for more comfortable riding. It is very important that they offer excellent ventilation in both the back and palm, as this will expel moisture from the interior, maintaining a stable temperature. Most have silicone inserts on the fingers for proper activation of the levers.

Why Use Bike Gloves?

The hands are a very sensitive part of our body as they are the first to receive the impact in case of a fall. The reflex action we have when falling is to put our hands out to avoid hitting our chin directly on the ground. Therefore, the hands always take the worst part, even if the fall was not serious.

Hence the importance of using bike gloves; this way, we will have the proper protection to avoid burns and scratches from any minor impact.

How to Know Your Cycling Glove Size?

Choosing the right glove size is very important as it depends on the protection and safety of our hands. Choosing the right size will allow for a better fit and, therefore, a better grip and control of the handlebars, as well as proper activation of the brake and shift levers.
To know your size, you should measure your hand as follows: place the measuring tape on the knuckle of the pinky finger and wrap it around the hand until you reach the same point, always with the hand flat, fingers closed, and the thumb left out of the measurement.

What Are the Differences Between Road and Mountain Gloves?

The main difference between road and mountain gloves is the level of protection. Mountain gloves offer greater protection for the knuckles and finger phalanges, as the terrains are more challenging and getting scratched is much easier. Another difference is the construction of the palm, which in the case of mountain gloves has gel or foam inserts for proper shock absorption and more comfortable riding.

Conversely, road gloves have hardly any protection, neither on the back nor the palm, as the terrains are much more stable and monotonous. In this case, the important thing is to have good sensitivity that allows an optimal grip on the handlebars.
