It is built specifically for riders who research what goes into their gear and want the highest level of knuckle protection available in a full-grain leather motorcycle riding glove. The GP Pro R4 delivers that through carbon fibre knuckle protection, a high-grip throttle surface, and a pre-curved racing fit that keeps you in full control at any speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a glove for casual riders. The GP Pro R4 is designed for track day regulars, sportbike riders, and performance-focused street riders who push hard and need gear that keeps up.

The GP Pro R4 uses carbon fibre. The difference is meaningful for serious riders. Carbon fibre is significantly lighter for the same level of impact resistance, and it spreads force more evenly across the knuckle during an impact rather than concentrating it at a single point. It also holds its shape and protective properties through repeated use better than plastic, which can crack or deform over time. For track riders and aggressive street riders who prioritise protection without adding weight or bulk, carbon fibre is the better choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho the GP Pro R4 Is Built For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe GP Pro R4 suits riders who have done their research and specifically want carbon fibre knuckle protection in a full-grain leather glove. Track day regulars, sportbike riders, and performance street riders who ride hard and want gear that genuinely matches that level will find the GP Pro R4 delivers exactly what they are looking for. The high-grip throttle surface and pre-curved fit add to the performance package, making this the most capable motorcycle riding glove in the collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and Sizing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in XS through 3XL.
