Bike Stop's View:
For those of us old enough to know better the Jet Road name is familiar as a trusted friend that gets you through those wet and cold winter months. What makes this Jet Road V2 the best yet is that Alpinestars has reduced the volume of the glove by incorporating Gore Grip’s tightly condensed layered construction whilst still offering the warmth required in winter with PrimaLoft. In short you stay dry and warm whilst retaining great dexterity on the controls.

• Integrated padding on fingers for fit and comfort.
•Reflective piping on backhand and fingers make the rider more visible to other road users.
•Touch screen compatible fingertips for use with smart devices such as mobile phones and sat navs.
•PU knuckle protection offers class-leading protection without impeding hand flex or movement.
•Ergonomic stretch insert between thumb and palm offers flexibility to vastly improve hand movement.
•Alpinestars patented third and fourth finger-bridge prevents contortion and separation of the fingers in the event of impact slide.
