Are those any good?

I like the look of them compared to other's I've seen (Exo2) because they have their own battery pack (we've got 3 bikes between us) and are a decent price.

Anyone bought from this website? I dunno 'realshopping' just looked a bit dodgy to me so I thought I'd ask first!

Or should I go for something like this: http://www.thebikerstore.co.uk/Gerbi...ies_APVMR.aspx which seems to be stocked by more reputable stores but is more expensive?

I hear heated grips are more like heated palm warmers?

I suffered horribly with cold fingers riding up to a friend's a couple of weeks ago (2 hr ride) and I don't want to risk getting grips and them not being enough...

Yeah I think the wind chill was a big factor in my hands becoming icicles

Gerbing heated gloves all the way. I can promise you will not find anything that does the job as well as these do. The trouble with heated grips is they only heat your fingers when they are wrapped around the grip and then they only warm the insides not the back of the hands and fingers which are the bits that get hit by the wind chill. Gerbing heated gloves warm the outsides of your hands and fingers all the way to the finger tips ALL of the time. The electrical elements are guaranteed for life.

Speaking of Strada enforcers... My bf has a pair and I need to clean them. Can I chuck them in the washing machine, do you think!?

Wash Motorbikewear?

I don't.
Buy black stuff & it doesn't show the dirt.

That said I want to get some Nikwax Tx stuff to wash & rewaterproof my textiles in time for winter.
I don't know Spada Enforcer gloves, but if they are leather, Renapur is great for treating them
