Great for winter riding
I went from nearly getting frostbite wearing a pair of gloves on each hand riding my 'cycle through the snow, to almost being able to go bare-handed through the same weather! These are so worth it if you're riding through minus 30 degrees weather as no gloves I've tried helped for hour-long treks through the inclement. These are fantastic. They keep your hands warm and out of the wind, and most importantly you keep your dexterity.
Perfect Handlebar Gloves
I live in Michigan and have used these a couple of times when the temperatures were around freezing. I wore long finger thin gloves as well and ended up having to remove the gloves as my hands were too warm! I found there was sufficient of room within the mitt which made it easy to change gears and apply the brakes etc - good enough, and way better than doing all that with frozen fingers. Easy to install and they look like they will stay in place. I am really happy with this purchase.
Super Warm
Bought a set for my wife, she and I loved them so much that I went a bought another pair for my bike the next week. Super warm, wind and rain proof. Don't need bulky winter gloves that cramp up my hands after awhile. The down side is that it is a little difficult to get your hands in and out with jacket and gloves on. You can operate the brake and shifter through material if you need to. I love them. The only complaint I have is that they work too well, my hands get super sweaty in temps above 10 degrees! Overall, This is a great product and worth the money.
Good Product
These gloves work well keeping my hands warm enough on very cold days (5 deg is the coldest so far) in conjunction with ski gloves. My only complaint is that it is difficult to move the thumbs and fingers around for shifting and braking purposes. It's nice that they lay flat when not in use, but it would also be nice to have more 3-dimensional room inside when in use. Even so, they keep my fingers warm which is the most sensitive part of the hand.
Winter Riding Essentials
This is an awesome gloves and solved my cold fingers problem. I tried a half dozen glove combinations, both biking and mountaineering. Nothing kept my fingers warm at 25°and below until I got these. They are dirt simple to install and work great. I have only been down to 15°so far but with winter biking gloves my fingers are warm again. The only cold moments I have had are when the bike sits outside and the handlebars get cold. Then the first few minutes of the ride I have cold fingers, but through no fault of the handlebar mittens. It's just that the cold handlebars suck the heat out of my hands initially until they warm up.
Ride without freezing fingers!
These handlebar mittens are awesome! I am a student and I bike almost every day. The mittens help blocks the wind and also the cold when riding on snowy days. My hands have never been warmer. No problem using these handlebar mittens in 15 degree weather. No more cold fingers. Easy installation and great fit make for a great ride. Best thing for winter riding!!! Get some soon if you ride in the cold.
Worth it!
Sooner or later every year I lose my gloves and need to bike somewhere. I decided enough was enough and got these. With these handlebar mittens, you'll have no idea you're riding a bike outside and your hands might even start to sweat. Without gloves, your hands will get cold, but these mittens will shield them from the absolute worst of it and most importantly wind. They go on in a few seconds and stay on with no problem. I can't imagine riding through the winter without them.
These mittens are great.
These are not the coolest looking accessory for your mountain bike, but if you ride when it's cold they are a ride changer! My fat biking friends have been rocking these for years, but I figured they were just overkill. I went on a cold & windy ride in December in Colorado and as the temps dropped I felt that familiar feeling of frozen fingers. That night I ordered a set of handlebar mittens. The next cold ride was completely different. In fact, my hands were so warm I removed my gloves inside the handlebar mittens. If you like riding outside in cold weather and like to be able to feel your hands after the ride, pick up a pair. They work great!
Superior Product
My fingers always get cold as I ride throughout the winter in Portland, OR. I've tried all sorts of gloves and they just didn't allow my fingers to stay warm when it got below freezing. After I received and installed these handlebar mittens, I've only had a few days in that range, but my fingers didn't get cold and white! Even in the common 40 degrees, I can wear lighter weight gloves and still keep warm and more nimble. Overall, these are superior mittens.
Very warm
Cold hands or cold feet are a ride killer. And these things really help.They were easy to attach and at first, it was a little different getting your hand in and out (more putting your hand back on the bars as opposed to remove them). But eventually as the gloves break in, they tend to stay "open" more where they as they had more of a tendency to want to be more closed when I first got them- and then it becomes second nature like they're not even there. Don't be afraid to adjust them here and there to get the optimal angle. But I almost never get cold hands now after being out 2.5 hours riding in 5 degree weather. Overall, a must buy for mountain biking at this price.
Perfect for cold rides.
These handlebar mittens are great for those super cold rides. Work perfectly and as hoped and at a very reasonable price point. I always wondered why people just wouldn’t just wear warmer gloves but One thing I didn’t anticipate was how well these keep the brake lever and shifter lever from getting ice cold on cold rides. This saves my fingers from freezing.
Just Perfect!
I live in Michigan and last year tried riding in the winter but could not keep my hands warm. I decided to give these handlebar mittens a try and they work great! I rode last week with the temps in minus 15 degrees. I had these on my handlebars and was wearing some close fitting middle weight winter gloves. I literally had to take the gloves off half way through the ride because my hands were sweating. Rode the next 30 minutes with no gloves and my hands stayed toasty warm in these handlebar mitts. With these mittens, I can bike all winter long. Thanks for making a great product and at a fair price.
