corbin seat / superbrace

Anyone have experience with these? They look cool and seem like they might help quite a bit in cold weather.... -Lujo [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

If this is that 3 fingered overmit that Aerostitch sells, I have a pair. They're ok as a rain mit, but even in an all day rain they will eventually start leaking. They help a little in cold weather, but not all that much. I would think a good pair of Maier plastic hand guards would help just as much if not more. I wonder if anyone still sells those "elephant" mits that fit on the handlebars and over the controls - sort of a handwarmer for each side of your handlebars. These used to work fairly well. Anyone know if these are still around? Tom '01 A15

Have a set and love em. Roll up small enough to keep in your pocket. Just a little slippery when wet though, the gloves are... Riley A15 Montreal

Yes, they help immensely. With a pair on mid weight gloves underneath, you can ride with warm hand in temps that would have you wishing for electric grips. Gino

Thanks for the replies, everyone. I'll put a pair of these on my to-get list. -Lujo [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I'm glad to read your report. I got my new Corbin before the snow fell, so I had plenty of time to test it. Unfortunately, I just got my SuperBrace, and we've been snow & ice bound for a while, with a while yet to go. I got it hoping it would firm things up on higher speed pavement travel, and it sounds like it does. Good news! Wise men still seek Him... Mark St.Hilaire, Sr A15 My Adelphia Email can be "iffy."
