Conrad Stoltz

After a few years dabbling in BMX racing, rugby, cricket, judo and running, I started racing triathlon at age 14. A few years later I turned pro in 1992- fresh out of high school. Other than the 24 years' of racing triathlon in South Africa, I raced 6 seasons in France and this is my 13th season in the USA.

I also enjoy mountain bike racing and mix it up with the "tall socks" when the schedule allows. [Sea Otter and Whiskey Off road this year in the USA, and Argus MTB Challenge in South Africa.]

Product testing, Caveman style

February 11, 2010

Not content with just testing MTB gloves by riding bikes, I took it a step further and tested these (older) Specialized BG gloves while renovating my house.

We're building with bricks, which are very abrasive on the hands, (and gloves) and after hours and hours of testing on single track and on the build site, the only shortcoming I found was a slight lack of material strength in the forefinger. But then, there is nothing some Duct Tape wont fix!

Stats for Conrad Stoltz are coming soon.
