I've had a pair of these gloves. Not something a biker often says, but they were too warm for me, even without power they are still a very warm glove...

When I changed the bars, I opted for the Oxford sports bike grips, they are thin and feel just like normal grips. I've used Oxford grips for years and years and years and only ever had one failure (which I can't properly remember now). Others have had many failures, but not me.

An old biker (long since departed now I guess) once told me that oversized gloves are the answer, having an inch of space at your finger ends. They are something you need to get used to, but it certainly works.

Then again, I don't really suffer from feeling the cold.
