From reading some of these posts I guess I may be cheating a little: I use no heated gear, but I lived in Alaska for 14 years and have worked outside in -60F (before the wind chill). Cold doesn't bother me much, but without electric gear, I do ride at 10 degrees F, regardless of the wind.

You are just used to it.

Gerbing, or HD heated gloves. I once had somebody give me a little lips about my heated equipment. I was 5 freekin degrees, and I was at a Marines' Funeral. I just ask that smart a$$, "Where is your bike?"

Buy a package of hand warmers from the sporting-good isle at Walmart..$2.00.
Open and shake to activate, slip one down each glove (palm side).
They stay warm for hours, I've done this for years.
If your finger get cold slip them out of the finger opening and roll them to the packet for a few seconds.
I buy a package of like 8 for $3.00 to $5.00

Gauntlet gloves when it gets chilly. When it gets real cold, NOTHING beats a set of heated gloves come winter time!
It feels like summer on the inside.

For temps between 35F and 65F I chose the Alpinestars Apex Drystar gloves at $95.
For me, Gerbing's heated gear is great for temps below 35F, but their gloves do lack protective features beyond the leather construction.
