Currently in China and a friend of mine is looking for some hand mitts that actually are attached to the bike. I thought you could buy these on line from somewhere, does anyone know where?
Ebay or similar, tucano urbano - although my bike-it ones were good enough (and great at their job) on the scooter over winter!

The neoprene ones are great and half the size, just make sure you choose the correct fitting, bar ends or no bar ends and off you go. They attach with clips onto the grips. The latest model for bar ends have a new internal brace for added strength for those ‘faster’ runs
