One thing many of us struggle with whilst out on a ride is phone buttons. Some gloves allow you to access your touch screen phone but it’s still a very clumsy exercise and not something I personally want to try whilst moving. Even when stationary it’s a frustrating experience, which usually results in me removing my gloves. A few days ago I spotted a small device known as “Chubby Buttons“. Essentially, it’s a small row of buttons that connects via bluetooth to your phone and allows you to very simply operate certain functions on that phone without removing your gloves and without having to stare at the phone screen. I have a set arriving shortly and I’ll give them a good test on the Overland Rider Tenere 700 and see just what they can do! In the meantime, take a look at the video below as Justin explains exactly what they do and how they came about.
