Winter Gloves any recommendations?

[mick_dundee]

Did a search, the term comes up with 13 pages of crap and I can't be fucked searching through it all. Given we have a fair representation in the ACT I figured if anyone here should know about winter gloves it should be the HCCC so any recommendations?

I just bought a new pair prior to lizzy's birthday for the 3 day run around the Snowys and frankly, they didn't cut it...

Mick
either get a serious set of winter gloves
like DriRiders Highlanders or similar

or use an inner (I have a set of silk inners)
under a decent normal glove

Have come to the conclusion the last couple of mornings that the only thing that is going to make a big difference on mornings like we've had lately is heated hand grips.
And probably cheaper than a good set of winter gloves?

Mick - these are the *exact* gloves I use up here on cold days. They are excellent winter gloves.

If its *really* cold, then I wear the Damart inners inside the Highlanders...........by cold days I mean anything between 0 and -5 or lower........throw in a wind-chill factor and you get the idea.....

Heated handgrips are the way to go!

Don't get the Rivet ones - they're shit in anything below about 5 degrees. I had the Oxford ones on my ER, cost about $140.00, and they were just awesome, even with my crappy gloves!

Mario, I have no probs with being told to HTFU but far canal, coming from YOU?? I've seen Mina on a bike more often than i've seen you, in fact, i've seen Mina on a bike more often than i've seen you and Rossi combined... think there are others here more so than me that need to HTFU

Look next time you shave you'll probably find one there

Go the heated grips Mick. After much stuffing around and 4 dodgy switches later, it seems that Oxford has changed the switch design to one that doesn't have a knob THAT FALLS OUT. The new switch is much better.

Cost about $116 from Race Rep if I remember correctly.

There's no such thing as a winter glove that will actually keep your hands warm for any length of time.

Heated grips are ace, I don't care how sissy it is

oxford make 2 types of heated handgrips, price from $110 - $130 at bikebiz online.

I did look at some overgloves from NZ, they're a mitten type with a thumb and index finger, but I'm tuff so I'll stick to my glove liners.
