Bike Stop's View:
The SP-1 V2 leads the line of long cuff sport riding gloves for the road from Alpinestars. What it does best is take the essentials of control, protection, and comfort packed into a well-priced package. What we really like is that in V2 form Alpinestars new more substantial knuckle guard, extensive padding, landing zone protection, and the trusted third to fourth finger bridge bring something robust enough to take out as a starter on the track whilst still having the all-round comfort for everyday road use.

•Synthetic suede side reinforcements on landing zones for abrasion resistance and durability.
•Increased accordion leather stretch inserts on fingers, thumb and backhand to improve fit while increasing directional movement and comfort.
