I'm with our leader here. At about 8degrees I need full finger gloves. The Assos 6-12 degrees are perfect here.
At 3 degrees or below, the ski gloves are the only thing I have found to work. And I've done 3, 4 hour rides at below 3 degrees. I don't mind feeling cold in my feet/head elsewhere, but for me, the hands just don't like anything at this temperature and my hand circulation just doesn't cut it.
I have tried liners/silk and merino and also** 4 different 'winter' **gloves.
In desperation I found my ski gloves (definitely C&A) and these cope with the wind and the rain and the cold admirably.
