Brisk ride and a question.
I just had to ride today even though it is only 28 degrees, and with thermals on it was not uncomfortable. I have a pair of heavy gloves and they keep your hands cool instead of cold. The problem is they are bulky and just don't let me feel the controls as I'd like to. The question is, are the Gerbing electric gloves very bulky?

I have the Gerbing's G3 heated gloves and find them to be quite acceptable. In addition to the wiring, they are Thinsulate lined, but not too bulky. They were a little stiff when I first got them, but loosened up once I wore them a few times.

Just bought some about a month ago and love them. I quickly got use to them being "thicker" than the fingerless that I ususally wear. The key here is that bulky beats frozen anyday......

They're a bit buldy but not as bad as some. A friend uses some silk liners in his regular gloves and likes 'em, when I'm using my Gerbings, you might give that a try before spending the $180.00. I'm not complaining about the price, worth every penny of it to me.

Heated gloves make a huge difference. Once you've got em, you'll never be without em... Those crisp mornings in July are nice for the first couple of hours, let alone November and December....
