They are probably a lot warmer than needed on a bicycle unless it is zero degrees or below depending on how easily your hands get cold. Your hands definately will not get cold in them. Too hot maybe -but never too cold. The build quality is awesome for the price. Very good stitching and decent materials are used. Not nearly as bulky as a similar non-riding glove with equivalent warmth.</p>

<p>The best test so far has been a 45-minute commute in mean temperature of 5 degrees with a below-zero windchill. The outer mitts alone kept my hands toasty warm. If you add the liners, I'm not sure you'll ever get cold. The mitts have a big cuff to go over the sleeves of your jacket which eliminates any cold air sneaking in and freezing your wrists or forearms. The liners are convertible so the tips of the fingers/thumbs pull back easily so you can use your fingers on your phone or in your pocket, or whatever, w/o taking off the liners. Really I can't say enough good things about these. They work great for bike commuting.</p> EvanDynamic said:$12 Neopre…tag:thechainlink.org,2010-12-04:2211490:Comment:2664842010-12-04T01:13:18.614Zh' Zerocatshttps://thechainlink.org/profile/H3N3

They're 3mm neoprene that is fleece-lined for easy on-off and comfort. They also have thumb and index finger slits. Same idea as those wool fingerless gloves with floppy velcro-back mitten hoods.<br/>
<br/>
This is my first winter biking and I haven't tried them yet. But I've been a mariner in the wet and cold for years. No matter how waterproof the glove, your wet hands will always soak them once you take them on and off. So I gave up on dry hands and settle for warm <u>damp</u> hands. Unlike other hot-when-wet materials like fleece and wool, neoprene doesn't soak up water and have a spongy feel.<br/>
<br/>
Take it with a grain of salt though since this is my sailing solution and I haven't biked a winter. In a couple of weeks I'll get back to you with the results.<p style="text-align: left;"><img src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/35230953?profile=original" alt=""/></p>

Evan, if you survived last winter I'd be interested in an update on how those gloves worked for you.<br />

I found that Scuba Diving gloves are fairly effective at blocking wind/water and keeping your hands toasty. The thicker the neoprene, the more warmth. The trade off is that they don't breathe as well and are a bit difficult to layer. However, since my snowboard gloves were also not cutting it, I found that these are a good subsitute and I didn't have to buy anything new.

I have a pair of mountain hardwear gloves that have lasted me 5+ years. They're not waterproof, but when it's cold enough to snow, gloves don't really get all that wet. The most important thing is to get a pair of gloves that have something in them to stop the wind because that's what will really suck the heat from your fingers, and why your current pair of knit gloves won't do much to keep your hands warm.

Then I switch over to my ski gloves which are totally non-dexterous and bulky as crap but keep my fingers from falling off.<br />

Well, they cost a lot, but the pearl izumi lobster gloves are warm water proof, wind proof and give you mobility. I rode with them last winter and highly recommend them.<br />
