Product Information
Full details
The Fox Ranger MTB Gloves Gel are designed for mountain bikers seeking a balance of comfort, protection, and trail versatility. These gloves are ideal for riders who need enhanced vibration damping on long descents while maintaining tactile feedback on the handlebars. While the gel padding provides excellent comfort, users should note that the thicker palm construction may feel slightly bulkier compared to ultralight, non-padded racing gloves.

FAQs
Are these gloves machine washable?
Hand washing is recommended to prolong the life of the gel padding and touchscreen-conductive threads.
Can I use these gloves for road cycling?
Yes, their ergonomic design and comfort features are suitable for road riding, though they are specifically optimized for MTB trail use.
Does the gel padding cover the entire palm?
The TruGel is strategically placed in high-impact areas of the palm rather than the entire surface to maintain flexibility.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure the circumference of your dominant hand just below the knuckles and compare it to the standard Fox sizing chart.
Are these gloves waterproof?
No, they are designed for breathability and are not waterproof, though they dry relatively quickly.
Can I operate a GPS device with these?
Yes, provided the device has a capacitive touch screen compatible with conductive thread technology.
Troubleshooting
Touch screen responsiveness is inconsistent
Ensure your fingers are positioned correctly on the touch points of the index finger and thumb and that the fabric is pulled taut against your skin.
Gloves feel tight or uncomfortable
Loosen the hook and loop closure and ensure that the glove is properly centered on your hand without twisted seams.
Loss of grip on levers
Clean the silicone fingertips with a damp cloth to remove mud or oil buildup, which can reduce friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, adjust the hook and loop closure until the cuff is snug against your wrist, ensuring the glove does not bunch up in the palm. These gloves are compatible with most standard mountain bike grips and brake lever configurations. For care, it is recommended to hand wash the gloves using mild soap and cool water to preserve the integrity of the conductive threads and the gel padding. Always air dry the gloves away from direct heat sources, as high temperatures can damage the elasticity of the fabric and the adhesive backing of the grip prints.
