So i was looking to purchase some new gloves as the gauntlets i got were too small for my hands. I got the agvsport dragons for 38 bucks good deal and a decent glove, but was too small. The other day my brother got off the phone with STG and he told me they are doing over the phone sales of handroids on the 2012 model to make room for the 2013 model. So i got my handroids for 175 and saved about 70 bucks or so and cant wait for them to get here. They should be here by monday and ill take some pics

Those gloves look awesome! Wish I had 'em but that a bit too much money for now.

Did you get the pods or the regular ones?

Lakeshow DO NOT wear them in heavy rain, they fall apart ridiculously quickly once they get wet.


These were not crash damaged, they got wet, were switched for a waterproof pair & left in a tankbag for a couple of days. they came out like this.

The guy contacted Knox & was given the runaround, the shop he bought them from replaced them with Alpinestars GP Pro, sent the whole lot back & no longer stock them due to Knox giving them the runaround.

Leather disintigrated along the sides of most fingers & in the web between them.

I have had a set of these for 3 years now and they are good gloves, but like it was mentioned before the stitching sucks. I had the stitching reinforced on all fingers after a few came apart. I have never ridden with them in the rain but I will watch out for that now that I know.

How can gloves that expensive be good if you need to have the stitching reinforced?

Ouch sorry about your friends gloves but i talked to a distributor about their warranty and im basically covered on anything for 2 years as long as i dont go down, so if the seems come loose or leather starts to desolve ill be able to get a new pair
