Italian motorcycle gear manufacturer Alpinestars collects a bevy of data from its sponsored MotoGP and Superbike World Championship (WSBK) riders. The apparel giant then uses that data to adapt its racing protection technology into its street and road racing range. Alpinestars’ gloves continue to benefit from that extensive research and development, and the new GP Tech V2 gloves deliver professional-grade protection for amateur riders.
Appropriate for both the road and the racetrack, the GP Tech V2 boasts a kangaroo leather construction which delivers abrasion protection as well as excellent feel at the controls. Additional stretch inserts provide abrasion resistance in a key zone while a dual-density knuckle cup yields Level 2 impact protection without sacrificing the rider’s range of movement.
