FULL Control – Comfort and dexterity whether you’re in the drops or on the tops.
A classic, open fingered design offers timeless cycling glove comfort and performance· Silicone ‘target”print on the palm improves grip, in all weathers. Helping ensure your hands stay firm and in control even after hours in the saddle. The race proven lightweight palm offers more protection and grip than riding without a glove. We’ve added some extra ventilation on the palm as well, to aid with drying. The back of the hand features a lightweight mesh for optimal airflow and cooling — we successfully use this same fabric on our Piste adventure jersey.
Without padding, the mitts offer increased sensation to the hands and road feel whilst still offering sufficient grip.
Pull tabs, designed for convenience, facilitate easy removal when every second counts.
Features:
- Biomapped padding on palm for optimal nerve protection.
- Composition: Lycra Invista® 75% / Polyester 25%.
- Pull-on design.
- Superior Lycra back for enhanced stretch.
- Weighing only 16 grams per pair.
Sizing Advice: For the best fit, mitts should be snug. A loose mitt can shift and cause abrasion. Measure around your knuckles and refer to our size chart for guidance. When removing, pull off one finger at a time.

These are a really classy mitt. There’s no padding, which I prefer. Padding always seemed to bunch up and cause pressure points on my hands and I’d get numbness after a couple of hours. I’ve worn these for four hours plus with no numbness. The palm is really sticky so it really helps with grip when things get damp. They’re easy on / off even without a velcro fastener, again, which I prefer.
The only issue I had was with the sizing. I’m 21cm around the knuckle so I ordered medium based on the size guide. They turned up and were absolutely tiny. Galibier were great, with a really quick exchange for a pair of XL’s which fit perfectly.
