Default Re: Rukka Virium

update time.

due to a deer running out in front of me at 60mph i can confirm that the Virium gloves worked better than expected.

scaphoid protection. this worked perfectly or as well as could be expected. right hand has bruising around the scaphoid area but no fractures or breaks. left hand has no injury or bruising. as you can see in the pic below both gloves have road rash.




knuckle protection, worked as well as could be expected and without it two of the knuckles on my left hand would be worn away.




i think the gloves are still usable but wont know till i get back out on the bike and its raining.

armour protection on any motorcycle clothing can only minimise damage and the best that you can hope for is that it does its job properly which in this case i think that it has.
