stops cuts
I find that seams running down the palm of the glove rip easily after
repeated falls. For example, I have a pair of Specialized Fortress
gloves [http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCEqProduct.jsp?spid=9970] that
split open after a few months of riding (though my friendly shoe
repairman was able to repair them with big leather patches). Look for
solid palms if you want durability. In case it matters, most of the
abuse came from learning skills on pavement, where I fall a lot but
rarely hard.
Also few, if any, mountain bike gloves offer wrist protection.
I like the KH gloves which I usually use for offroad unicycling.
Can't help you regarding the Harbingers. I only wear full fingered
gloves since hitting my fingertips hard against the underside of the
seat is a problem for me.
