After getting frozen hands today in some Specialized gloves I definitely need some better ones.

What do you use?

I want to spend under £30 and so far have seen:

Northwave Energy £29.99
Assos Insulator £21.50 (thinking probably not warm enough)

At a push Gore Vulcano £35.99 inc 10% discount

    I use Specialized gloves.

    I've been using the Spesh Deflects for a while but they're starting to get a bit marginal first tihing on a morning.

    I managed to get myself a pair of Spesh Radiants in the recent Edinburgh Bike Co-op sale for £14.95.

    I think they'll set you back £30-£40 at full price mind. They're lovely and warm and waterproof (apparently) but they are quite chuncky and with STi's I've made an arse of a couple of shifts.

    Last year I started using cheap, 3 pound from peacocks thinsulate jobs, when the weather was still a bit warm, around 5/6 degrees.

    I kept wearing these all winter, except on below freezing says when mitts were needed. They are surprisingly the warmest gloves I have used!
