Probably not the best solution but one that we use here in Maine at the end of our seasons is running some rubber gloves under your normal riding gloves, to block the wind.

A pair of 100% cold weather gloves and a good set of handguards to break up the wind. it also works to put latex gloves under your regular gloves used this set up for snow races but your hands get sweaty real fast.

Just seen somebody beat me to the latex gloves

Handguards, any cold weather(neoprene) gloves from a company of your choice and put some hockey tape on the levers.

The Hardy brand insulated mechanics gloves at Harbor Freight are great. I'll second the vinyl gl9ves under or over your regular gloves as well.

This works 100% every time. Feels kinda weird gripping the bars but at least you won't get cold hands.

Klim Inversion glove. They sell an insulated and non insulated version. It’s what I use for winter riding and I’ve had no issues once warmed up at -5c.

X2 on the Novik cold war. Best balance of warmth and feel I've ridden in.

Hockey tape on the levers is an excellent idea. I never thought of that.

Anyone remember the "grip tape" like stuff Scott used to sell to put on your levers?

FXR Cold Cross Gloves. The company's background is snowmobiling gear so they know what they're doing.




Also The Attack Insulated Glove

If you run more than just twice in cold weather better get 10 dollar warmers from china under grips.

i put those on my snow bike and had horrible results. the non-throttle grip barely even warmed up because it was trying to heat the aluminum bar rather than transfer through the grip. the throttle side go so fuckin' hot you could roast a weanie over it. the grip heated up so much that the glue came undone and the grip bubbled up and moved around. 1/10, do not recommend.


i just put these AME heated grips on both my snow-bikes. haven't used them besides testing them in the shop, but initial tests show that they don't blow massive donkey dick like the Chinese pieces of shit you posted.

I got a set of those tusk bar mitts. Like they go over your bars and you put your hands inside them. They completely cover your wrists and block all the wind.

I like them but find them much more bulky than the insulated inversions. I run the Pros on my sled on warmer days.

I’m gonna try to get out for a studded ride tomorrow, I may try out my Motorfist Rekons and see if they feel too bulky. It’s beeb between -25 to -29 most of this week with the wind chill so too cold to ride bikes. Still need more base for sleds abs snowbikes.

Yeah I'm using them for lower voltage so they warm up slower and more even on side to side. Once you have warmed up you don't really need them anymore and could run almost summer cloves.

When I rode mountain sleds years ago I never could find a good glove that offered decent wind/cold protection on the back of the had without being bulky on the palm. They all had insulated palms which made gripping the bars feel weird. Granted, I run a size smaller gloves in MX as I don;t like any bunching but still. Best set up I found was grip warmers & hand guards. Love to find something for the colder moto days that offered a thicker back and then palm. Nothing sucks like your hands freezing to the bars after a couple pf laps.........

100% Brisker gloves.
Neoprene on the top, and thin for grip in palm.
We ride winter-enduro and backcountry snowmobiling in these. Awesome.

Good info in here!
There's a few I'm interested in, the Novik "Cold War" glove has me very interested, the pocket for a hand warmer is a great feature.
KILM inversion looks like a well made glove.
The Brisker looks good for the price.
I may order a few to fill my stocking..lol

I use the Astars "neo moto glove" they are good if it's not super cold.
I also have the mitten type things that go over the bar and levers.
If I use the mittens I normally do so with standard gloves, if I run the mittens and neo gloves my hands start to sweat. Even at -15°c.
