GripGrab gloves with DoctorGel are designed to reduce the feeling of pins and needles in the fingers, secondary to compression of the nerves innervating the hand.Both mountain bike and road bike riders, regardless of level of experience, may suffer temporarily from nerve compression. A prospective clinical study has shown that 70% of long-distance riders experience symptoms related to nerve compression.The symptoms can present as light tingling in the fingers but can progress to more severe numbness and paresthesia. The condition is described in the literature as Cyclist's palsy and the problem arises when a nerve to the hand is compressed between the handlebars and the underlying bone.The most effective way to manage Cyclist's palsy is to take steps to prevent its occurrence. All riders going for a long bicycle ride should wear adequately padded cycling gloves. The placement of the shock absorbing DoctorGel pads is optimised to reduce the risk of nerve compression.

The InsideGrip technology works to increase control via silicone grips on the inside of the palm, increasing friction between the glove and the hand. This ensures absolute grip and control as the hands and glove move as a unit, rather than the hand slipping inside the glove. The palm itself is slim and durable, with no padding to get in the way of the direct feel you need when threading your way over rocks and roots. An elastic cuff minimises bulk, lessens weight and keeps the gloves securely on, while a sweat wiper is there to mop a sweaty brow when the going gets tough.
Balancing comfort and grip at the bar perfectly, the GripGrab SuperGel XC Touchscreen Full Finger Gloves give you the protection you need for adventures off-road. Just enough DoctorGel® padding absorbs the shock and vibrations of varied terrain before they get anywhere near your hands with sacrificing grip, further supported by silicone fingertip grippers that give you full command over the handlebar and controls. Further comfort is provided by breathable mesh wicking sweat away from the skin before you notice it building up, and an integrated sweat wiper helps keep your tired brow dry too. On top of all of that, as the name suggests, these full-fingered gloves are fully compatible with phones and other touchscreen devices, so you don’t need to take the gloves off when updating your status or taking those gnarly trail photos.
The Women's Shark Padded Full Finger Glove features a close-fitting lightweight mesh back allowing your hands to breathe, while the DoctorGel® padded suede palm provides exceptional grip, comfort, and control. The synthetic suede palm makes for a durable and long-lasting race and fast riding glove. Perfect for cross country and endurance-focused riders and the ultimate glove for those dry and dusty summer trails.

Doctor Gel has been developed specifically to help combat this nerve compression when riding.
Built For The DownThe Switchblade MIPS is our new ASTM downhill certified full face helmet with a removable chinbar. Everything about the Switchblade is optimized for the descent, and that’s why it’s certified to CPSC, EN-1078 and ASTM-1952-DH with and without the chinbar. The chinbar is easy to remove just push the buttons under the chinbar, rotate up, and remove nand it’s just as easy to reinstall. The Switchblade MIPS features the new Roc Loc® Air DH fit system, which has a bumper around the dial to prevent accidental adjustments if your helmet contacts your backpack or neck brace all while keeping you cool. When the chinbar comes off, Wind Tunnel cheek pad ventilation adds even more cooling power as you start to climb. Plus, the full-cut style gives this helmet an aggressive look and provides ASTM certified coverage even when the chinbar is removed. When your ride is all about descending, your helmet should be too, and the Switchblade MIPS is the only removable chinbar helmet that is truly built for the down.Key Features:Removable chinbar,P.O.V.

CONFIDENCE TO COMMIT From the Enduro World Series to Red Bull Rampage top riders demand the Giro Insurgent™ Spherical and the confidence it delivers. Our engineers maximized the intake points for cool fresh air resulting in cooling power 50% more efficient than the Disciple™ Mips®. A lightweight soft-touch and absorbent pad set includes two different cheek pads with each of the three sizes allowing for a customizable fit which are secured via a directional snap system allowing for easy removal in case of a crash. At 1040 grams in size M/L the Insurgent is 200 grams lighter than the Disciple Mips despite additional features including the advanced protection performance of Spherical Technology™. Insurgent Spherical utilizes a pair of different density EPP and EPS foam layers that work like a ball and socket to redirect impact energy in a crash. Additional features include a patent-pending Flex Gasket along the lower edge of the helmet designed to reduce the role a helmet can play in certain collarbone impacts tool-free breakaway visor bolts with integrated Allen key receiver for easy removal and a central visor bolt hole which does double-duty as the ideal mount for P.O.V. action cameras. WHAT IS SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY? The unique ball-and-socket design of Spherical Technology utilizes two separate liners to help manage impact forces. The material and density of the inner and outer liners can be optimized with Progressive Layering to help manage a broad range of impact forces: the Insurgent features an outer EPS layer (to address high-speed impacts) and an inner EPP layer (with rebound characteristics designed to handle slower speed falls.) When you combine the benefits of Progressive Layering with the market-leading Mips® Brain Protection System which can help redirect rotational energy away from the brain you get more comprehensive protection. HOW DOES SPHERICAL TECHNOLOGY WORK? Developed at the Bell+Giro Dome laboratory in partnership with Mips® Spherical Technology’s unique Ball-and-Socket Design redirects impact forces bringing market-leading design performance and brain protection together without compromising comfort ventilation weight or style. STAY COOLUNDER PRESSURE We tested with our proprietary Therminator head form to measure helmet cooling efficiency and the results prove that Insurgent sets a new standard for full-face helmets. Despite added features and protection it has 50% greater colling efficiency than Disciple Mips (cooling measured from 100º starting temperature at with 25 mph wind speed).
