Post by: Mikku on June 11, 2015, 03:03 AM

During my recent research on GAC Akimoto bikes - http://www.radbmx.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,182372.0.html - I spotted these:-

Not sure what you'd call them - maybe hand or glove protectors - but in any case I've never seen them before!! :D

Tony (torkerdude180) has a set of those or something very similar on his Team aero pro burner  8)  I had never seen them before until then .

They pop up on French sites every now and again. Toyed with buying some once but I think they are aimed at the racing lot  ;)
