Bought a pair of the New Quasi Gloves..
Below is my thoughts on them...:)
Once again, outstanding service from Quasi.
Ordered my pair of EXTREME II Gloves, on a Sunday night. Email said I would have them by Tuesday morning, and sure enough...Knock Knock - courier at the door and yup my gloves had arrived.....
__________________________________________________ ______________
Now onto how well they perform.... Everything rated out of 10 (being the highest)
Quality.....10...Everything is stiched exceptionally well. And materials are high quality.
Warmth.....10....The thinsulate lining is soooooo nice. Hands and fingers nice and toasty, instead of being "fingsicles" (might be a new word there hitcher....)
Waterproofness....10...There is something to be said for riding in the rain, when ALL of you, does not get wet. So nice to be able to pull up at work, and peel off the gloves and not have them be sopping wet both inside and out...
Armour......10....First pair of gloves that have the knuckle and finger armour. (summer weight gloves of mine don't have it) Makes sense to have it there.... Wet and cold weather, slippery icy roads etc....
The only thing I noticed, which is not totally unexpected is the altered sense of feel on the controls. Now this was expected as the gloves are thicker than the ones I have been using, so it is just a matter of a little adjustment time and it will no longer be an issue...The benefits far outway this anyway...
So all in all very glad I spent the $$$'s and got myself a pair....
So do yourselves a favour and go out and get some.........Gloves that is...
