Wife has Soft lowerrs on her Deluxe. She has used them winter and suummer. Sure we keep them off most of the summer, but she has them with her, so if it rains, it takes abnout 30 seconds to put them on and keep her feet dry

Cause the hard lowers have vents that you can open up and let air through....most of the cheapo crash bar lowers made out of material dont let much, if any air through.
