I understand that the pinky and ring finger connection is to help protect your pinky if you shall wreck...but does anyone really like this feature? Thats what kept me from buying these gloves. And the gloves I did buy (RS-Taichi) suck ass and maybe I should pick these up now while they are on sale? Just wanted to know if you guys like the conjoined fingers?

my gp pros have the joined fingers and you cant tell. they make no difference or bother me. they didnt make a difference the times i crashed either. the theory behind it makes some sense though. either way they arent a bother, you wont notice when riding, so if they have joined fingers dont sweat it
btw rs taichi makes good stuff, why do you think they suck ass?

rs-taichi might make good stuff, but that lets out their gloves...JUNK!!! Went on a 50 mile rip, and the logos were flyin off, the index finger seems were ripping out. J-U-N-K!!! When you pay that kind of money for a glove they keep pushing on you because they say they are soo much better than the Alpinestars GP plus gloves, you expect them to hold up especially after only 50 miles!
