For Sale: Giro LX Mitts (all leather) going cheap

^ I got mine from dotbike, which is doing them at about the same price.

they are the 2011s instead of the 2013s, no idea of the difference. They are doing the gloves for about the same money too. Excellent product.

Got mine too, seem really nice and good quality. Mediums are pretty snug on me but in a "fit like a glove" kinda way... The weather is warming up nicely too!

Meant to say THANKS too

Thank you. Does anybody know whether they are the same size as the Rapha? Or as nobody in London seems to stock them whether any other Giro gloves would be good for trying on?

They show on the TFG site, maybe they stock them too?

I bought the size I have worn in other brands and seemed to come up similar. Haven't owned rapha gloves so can't compare.

I have the 2011 black version , & have just got these off Sam these are the new white version slightly different pad on palm . These gloves are fantastic ! Pittards leather which is so nice & soft but durable too quality !! As for sizing I find they come up slightly small , like assos , gore & rapha , I went for a large , I also have gore wind stopper gloves in large . Also had rapha grand tour gloves , & these giro mitts are just as good , hope this helps with size folks & for the price they are fantastic

All I can say sizing wise, is that I have very skinny fingers and don't consider myself to have large hands, but the size large is perfect. Medium was definitely too small, but with them being leather, they will mould to your hands slightly

SJS cycles have them in black, not sure which year and shipping is about another 4 quid but still a steal!

The 2013 model has an updated palm, that's about it.

Theres a 50/50 chance they might arrive over the weekend, in which case I'll be up at the LMNH jumble around 10:30am on Sunday morning if anyone's about

^old model mate, 2013 model has improved gel pads and redesigned palms.

Order should be here tomorrow.

I am probably blind but I can not see the difference.

Wow my bad, I'm looking at my Giro Monaco palms.

They do seem to be similar, but I think the gel pads are thicker in the new model.

To those ordering with postage, it'll be £34 not £33 as before due to a miscalculation with PayPal fees, sorry for the inconvience.

Cheers,
Sam

Anyway, thanks for bringing these to my attention.

No worries, I'm glad you've found somewhere with as good value as that!

Singletrack are wank though. They took over 2 weeks to deliver me a miche cog, and then sent the wrong size. I'm sticking with samjt

Haha cheers for that! I have ordered them all so at the moment I'm about £300 out of pocket, it would be nice if you guys did buy them off me ;)

They are the old version on single track (if they have them ) ... They are still great gloves tho slightly less gel in the palms & the pads are slightly narrower ... Fantastic price tho ... If they have them . I ordered a dt swiss campag free hub body . Stated in stock ... Paid & awaited delivery , after 2 weeks I was advised that it would be a further 2 weeks so requested a refund to my PayPal account .... 1 week later I got money refunded to PayPal ... In the meantime I ordered one from chain reaction £6 more expensive granted but it was here next day ! .... So you pay your money you make your choice ... I won't be using single track again .... Hope people have had better experience ..... By the way I don't know Sam from Adam so I'm not trying to big the guy up ! ... Just happy with my giro gloves for the price posted ,,,,, they are great mitts !

Can you get the long fingered version??

I think so, they're more expensive though. I'll let you know tomorrow

Ok cool

**The order has arrived, I'll be up in central on Sunday so send me a pm if you want to meet up. I'll post the others next week

@gino and dan, I'll make a new thread if I'm going to do any more orders**

Any chances for a tooting/Balham meet again like last time?

Homingmissle - yeah that's cool, it'll probably have to be in the week though.

Gino - have you read any of this thread? Check the first post for a start.

Where in central London would you be tomorrow and what time?
