When I get them in I'll let you know how they feel(Hopefully not how well they stand up in a crash).

These are the Dainese I was looking at. I put those bad boys on and they felt damn good. I think they were $135.

You got the Scarab RR for $54 total? or $54 out of pocket after your $30 rebate? The first is a great price, the second ($84 total) sucks!

The Cortech Vice and A* 3/4 are the semi-gauntlets I was thinking of. I like the idea. Haven't found anywhere to try them on yet.

$54 out of pocket.

I did try on the A*s, Joe Rockets, Frank Thomas', and more. I couldn't stand how the A*s felt on my hand. And I don't trust JR or FT(Despite I have FT) as much as I would a A* but have been hearing good things about Cortech/Tour Master.

Unfortunately the place I got the discount from doesn't have crap when it comes to gear or anything else really. Like most dealerships they have midrange to low end stuff. Didn't have a single pair of riding boots.
