After many crashes on my mountain bike, a Giant, and my road bike, a Giant, I started wearing long finger gloves. Probably saved my skin way more than once.
I Always ride my Sporty, and Giants with long finger gloves. I use insulated leather in cooler weather, leather in moderate weather, and hybrid leather/cloth in warm/hot weather. I actually have a pair of leather with the steel knuckle guards in them which have 2 great uses.
What is your preference? Gloves full fingered, half gloves, no gloves and why?
