Too late.  Already got the Held Phantoms...   

 

A pair of the Full Metal Racers just arrived for me. As soon as it warms up, I'll get to break 'em in. I'll let ya'll know how they turn out.

Cool!  I am still thinking about picking up a pair, even though I just got the Helds; which are quite nice by the way.  

DaineseDan, if I wear a large in A-stars gaunlets, and my medium+ (8.5) Helds fit nice as well, do you think a large would be the best FMR size for me?

I have these gloves.  While excellent in design, look, comfort, and protection they have not held up to my standard.  I put 10k on my bike since last march and the right hand has worn through.  My grips are stock s4rt grips. I switch off between them and my Revits evenly. I still were them form time to time but I find my Revit gloves much more reliable.  The gaunlet is made for a tight fitting jacket so make sure yours fits correctly and isnt to long or they just wont work.  They relly are a track gove but if you like me and wear a one-peice or a slim fitting race style jacket then you'll be fine.

Overall I like them, just wish the damn palm didnt wear out so easily. Oh and they run really small.  I have a large and by no means have big hands.
