I have tried these but can't recommend them due to the hole in the palm making them uncomfortable.

I was looking at these a while ago and found there are a few motorbike options, although I never got round to buying some.

I searched "waterproof over gloves"

I've found they don't come undone as long as I tighten them up to start with :wink: Were the ones you had an issue with alloy? I...

Gotta say, skateboarding LEGOG for a mental health charity does seem very apt. For anyone who's never skated, I can tell you it's hard work. :-bd Some Kryptonic reds with wide trucks and he'll be fine ;-) He just set off, with some massive red wheels fitted: https://www.instagram.com/p/CUPoUcfIZpN/...

After a near disaster today (one lost and 3 loose chainring bolts, nudity!) I'm looking for quality chainring bolts and which threadlock to use with them?
