Nope, my fingertips don't get cold. I have Gerbing's heated gloves. Way easier to install than heated grips, and at least as warm. With the Gerbing's jacket & gloves and an Aerostich Roadcrafter, I commute comfortably into the mid-20's.
Good thing, too. I don't have a car. :redflip
heated gloves would be the way to go.
I have a gerbing heated jacket and wear reg-a-la gloves. My commute is a little over 40 minutes and I wish it was in the 30s when I leave in the am!
The jacket keeps my hands warm enough. Santa might be bringing me gerbing gloves though. I won't complain.
I have a pair of fieldsheer over pants, and JoeSquidRocket ballistic 4.0, a gerbing jacket, a balaclava, and a pair of $30 Tourmaster winter gloves. Like workerant, the mid 20s are no problem. You might have to chase cold air leaks you first few rides at that low of a temp but once you figure out what to do, it's fine.
I've done a few polar bear rides that have amounted to a few hundred mile rides just for a cup of coffee. I am mostly toasty. I am trying to figure out how to properly insulate my neck without using something bulky. I hate having restricted neck movement.
