Yes, the are great in extreme temps. I do find them confining though. Have ridin in temps in high 20s and your hands stay warm. Easy to carry in your bags when you need them.

I've ridden to work on a clear 24 degree morning... once. Any more, It's gotta be freezing or above for me to take her to work. Plus, when it's that cold in Arkansas, you gotta watch for kamikaze deer!
