Yes the lobsters keep your hands warmer than gloves. Same idea as mittens, but with more dexterity. Skip the liners; you want skin-on-skin contact. Braking and shifting is not any more difficult than with other full-fingered gloves.

I have had frostbite in my right middle finger; lobster gloves are the only way I'm able to ride below 35F. I like them so much I've started using them for XC skiing and walking the dog in winter as well.
