I am not sure what size 6 surgical gloves are- I pulled out the tape measure!


From tip of middle finger to base of palm is 6.5" and from the thumb to the base of palm is a little over 5.5".

I do shift from the drops occassionally. I brake more from the drops though. I have Shimano Sora shifters, which have the thumb shifters on the hoods. They are different from 105/Ultegra/Dura Ace. That may also be a difference for me.

Do they have the Salsa bars in stock to try? I love the ergo bump on them is the only reason I will really miss them when I get a new bike.
