Crankin,
Thanks for the update on your glove nirvana. I DID have the perfect pair of gloves for the upper 30's (the coldest I will ride) and I lost one *&%*&!@^%
I think Shebeest stopped making them in 2010, which is when I purchased them.
I've a pair of Gore windblock gloves but they aren't very warm - and I hate having two pairs of gloves on - I will do it if I have to.. I LOVE my Amfib tights, so it sounds like I need to find a pair of Amfib gloves on spring sale somewhere :)
The Mavic Inferno sound interesting as well, will look into them. Are the Amfibs to warm for the 40s? I find I wear my Amfib tights in warmer temps than others - up to the mid 40s or so - not that it matters...

I think some people might be able to wear the Amfibs in the low forties. It's a very individual thing. For me, once I start climbing, my hands, feet, and head sweat profusely. I wore my first pair of Amfibs on my first bike tour in Vermont, in 2004. It was 38 degrees and drizzly and after the first climb, I had to rip those things off. Usually, once my hands warm up, they stay warm, unless I am off the bike for awhile. DH, can wear heavy gloves at a much higher temperature than me. Today he was wearing full fingered gloves and it was 55-56 for most of our ride, starting at about 52. I wore my vented full fingered gloves for the first 10 miles and then went to regular gloves. Despite the wind, I was fine.
