Five mountain bike winter gloves against frozen fingers were put to the test - here are the test results:
Gore Bike Wear Universal Gore WS Insulated
The windproof Gore glove has nothing against hours of basic training in bibber temperatures. The super-long cuff provides exemplary wrist protection. Despite the thick Primaloft insulation and fluffy inner lining, the brake and gear levers can still be operated properly. High-quality workmanship.
Price: 99,95 Euro

Mavic Crossmax Thermo
Although it says Thermo on the label, the Mavic is more for a winter on the Côte d'Azur. The less flexible, thin material on the back of the hand is water-repellent, but it is tight. It could be a little longer on the wrist. On the other hand, the leather palm offers a direct grip. It is also touchscreen-compatible.
Price: 60 Euro

Roeckl Rona
Whether it's wet, cold or both. The Outdry membrane in the touchscreen-compatible Rona can cope with all weathers. The fingers sit perfectly in the fluffy inner lining and the long cuff can be fastened with Velcro. Silicone applications on the palm guarantee grip. The testers' favourite glove.
Price: 69,95 Euro

SealSkinz Highland XP Claw
Thanks to the lobster construction and thick lining, the waterproof Sealskinz can even be worn on the coldest winter days. However, if you normally brake with one finger, you will have to get used to it, which is annoying. The grip also suffers from the thick inner lining. They are not really suitable for sporty trails.
Price: 60 Euro

SixSixOne Storm Glove
The lining is limited to the backhand and knuckles and reaches its limits relatively quickly. This makes the Storm Glove with its narrow cut fingers more of a transitional glove. The leather palm provides a non-slip grip. The short cuff pulls quickly on the wrist.
Price: 59,90 Euro
