Gel gloves do help. I have nerve damage in one arm and vibration irratates it to no end. There are no med's to help a nerve injury and let you ride at the same time, so gel gloves are the ticket.
You can even buy raw gel pads to use as a patch, etc.

What cracks me up is some of the people that make fun of them are riding bikes with balanced motors to get rid of vibration.

If you know of any gloves in particular with good vibration resistance let me know. Im in favor of a short type glove with knuckle armor if possible.

Thx!

Gel gloves are the ticket and there are some nice ones out there.

you don't mention what kind of problem your experiencing, so yer gonna get poked with a stick on this ..

Here's another alternative .. a bit more expensive however..
