warm fingered gloves
 
I have the lobster mitts, which are crazy warm but hard to shift STI levers (esp. up).

then I have PI cyclones, which just aren't that warm below freezing.

icebike recommends the lake mx zeroes, but I can't find them anywhere.

not into the pogie thing as I regularly switch between bikes

looking for a pair of fingered gloves that are warm and waterproof, thanks.

Lobsters are my go-to gloves below 30F. It usually takes me about two shifts to adjust -- I just have to rotate my hand a bit so two fingers fit between brifters and bars.

Above 30F, I've got a whole drying rack full of gloves, and I've got a mental range for each pair. What temperature(s) are you planning to ride in?

Down to about 15°

Have a number of pairs of ski gloves myself and they're OK for bicycling but take a while to dry out from perspiration. So I've started to use oversize lobster claws, wear a fleece glove inside and bring a spare pair of liners to change into when the first set gets wet. 'Dry and warm' go together and so do 'wet and cold!' So far, so good!

I've been using a pair of Altura Nightvision gloves for the last couple of weeks and they've been ok down to -2 C. Got mine from Amazon but they're available almost everywhere else I've looked. Waterproof too.

I have a pair of gloves with rechargeable lithium batteris. They have 3 heat setting and I found they match my lobster mitts for 15-30F riding. I have horrible cold hands and was thrilled to find them.

I want my hands to be warm.

You need an N+1 to ride when its too cold for the lobster gloves/brifters
