Review on ๐Ÿงค Kolpin Geartector Mitts - Black (92185) - Ultimate Winter Hand Protection for Outdoor Enthusiasts by Aaron Allen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product for the price with some caveats

Didn't work for me but wanted to leave a review anyway just in case. I have a Bergman 650 that gets cold because the fairing doesn't cover the handlebars. I bought this and a few others to get something working, while this product isn't without its flaws, it's a lot better than some of the similarly priced competing products here on Amazon. Pros: The fit and finish is great, the material is similar to nylon but double walled and stitched well. There's an extra plastic panel up front that helps keep it in shape at speed and ensures it doesn't get in the way when braking. Best of all, there is strong wire sewn around the holes, making it super easy to get your hands in and out! The entire section is zippered, allowing the handlebar opening to expand over the controls. Then pull the zipper back up. If your bike is like mine and doesn't get smaller after the controls, you won't be able to close it again - Velcro would be preferable. There is a small piece of cord you can use to tighten the side of the handlebars for a better fit (like a hoodie) but it uses very cheap cord that stretches so much that the shell mechanism was useless . While it didn't work for me, I think it's the best choice for any more traditional bike.

Pros
  • Just slip into our Geartector mittens for protection or extra warmth when you're out and about
Cons
  • Exchange availability
