Bar Mitts Cold Weather Mountain/Commuter Bike Neoprene Handlebar Mittens

Product Information

And I have found that I really don’t like wearing thick gloves while riding – I just lose too much dexterity with a thicker glove. Draugenklaw Drop-Bar Pogies keep hands warm and dry and allow for full use of brake and integrated shift levers on cold commutes, training rides, race days, and touring in uncertain weather. The mitts are shaped to facilitate grip on the tops, brake hoods and drops to ensure effective handling.

the wind pushes them onto the levers but not enough to activate the brakes or clutch as the neoprene is strong and retains its shape . But with the growing popularity of fat bikes and winter riding, many cold-weather cyclists have found that pogies work just as well on their handlebars. But like most Points Unknown projects, I encourage your own creativity and would love to hear about upgrades and improvements in the comments. Made of 5mm thick neoprene, the cornucopia-shaped pogies slide over the bar ends, enclosing the brake levers and hoods, and attach to your bars using an integrated velcro strap.We know how excited you are to get your new ebike and we are continually scaling up our operations to get it to you as soon as possible.

Originally from The Netherlands, she grew up a bike commuter and didn't find bike racing until her early twenties when living in Seattle, Washington. However, if I wasn’t using electronic shifting, I don’t think the smalls would have enough space for a full shift lever movement. Designed to fit over your motorcycle’s, or scooter’s, handlebars, they are very effective at keeping out the elements without interfering with the operation of your controls and can be used with heated grips too.

Interesting about the neoprene Tucano's - could you please post a picture or a link to the specific ones you are using? The large, reinforced opening provides easy access to handlebars, and the plush lining keeps your hands warm. Originally created in 1974 by a kayaker named Billy Nutt to stay warm while boating, pogies look roughly like T-shaped pouches, each with a large opening for the wrist and smaller openings on either side of the fist for each end of a kayak paddle. I also attached a small 2″ or so section of flat webbing and velcro attachment points to close the end around the controls. Cold weather, waterproof and windproof handlebar mittens to keep hands warm and comfortable in the cold, rain, snow and wind.
