Test: The Troy Lee Designs Ace 2.0 in our test is a very light long-fingered glove for the summer. Equipped with features such as touchscreen compatibility, silicone print on the brake fingers and a single-layer palm with laser hole perforation, the slip-on design glove proves that minimalist does not mean spartan.
If you are looking for a very light long-fingered glove for the summer, you should prick up your ears now. With the Ace 2.0, Troy Lee Designs has a glove in its range that not only draws attention to itself with its minimalist look. Small but fine detailed solutions are just as much a part of this model as the high standards of comfort and quality. As soon as you put it on, the Troy Lee Designs Ace 2.0 knows how to impress with its simplicity. Thanks to the slip-on design with extremely elastic cuffs, slipping on the gloves is extremely easy, even with sweaty hands.
Lightweight stretch micro-mesh upper and finger gussets made from moisture-wicking fabric
In the direct grip area of the palm, the Ace 2.0 is single-layered and designed without seams. In combination with the laser hole perforation, the glove gives a very good grip. Lightweight stretch micro-mesh cools the backhand - and it works pretty well. In general, the light glove fits like a glove. The stretchy materials nestle perfectly in the hand, the finger gussets made of moisture-wicking fabric provide extra ventilation when it's hot. Equipped like this, hot and long summer days on the bike can be endured very well.
Troy Lee Designs Ace 2.0: Make an inst post quickly thanks to touch screen compatibility
The silicone prints on the index and middle finger ensure a good grip on the brake and shift lever.

Let's get straight to the point: Works well. The good impression is rounded off by solid workmanship and a great, albeit simple design. Of course, we also put the glove through the washing machine a few times, following the instructions on the gentle cycle. The product also survived these hardships without any visible damage.
