Bike Stop's View:
The SMX-2 Air Carbon has been a stable part of the Alpinestars family for many years. Customers love the simplicity of this short sport riding model that works brilliantly in summer. You get great air flow channelled through the glove and all the protection that you could ask for set off in a sporty style with the gloss carbon reinforced knuckle setting the style off nicely. Generously applied goat leather on the palm makes the glove feel reassuringly robust.
