how would these hold up in biking in cold NY weather?

It would definitely keep your forearms warm. as far as durability it should hold up pretty good.

If a person is riding the bike, fine. These won't bike by themselves though.

I can not say if they will hold up in the heat or cold. These are the heaviest bags I have seen. I would think in the heat the would become more flexible but in cold conditions I don't know.

I believe they will work well in any application. I move automobiles at an auction after dark a couple of nights a week in the bitter cold and I wear them with sneakers. Heat Holders are a great product. I own three pairs!

I used them just for riding my motorcycle. I used them and nice pair of leather gloves. I repurchased just to have them again. I live in Oklahoma and was a 12month rider. As my circulation has changed in cold my fingers are ice my hands. They are an integral part of my cold weather gear. I hope I helped. I seen the other responses. I wonder what went wrong. I was extremely impressed with them.

I use mine for running, biking and cross country skiing with no problems. They fit well under a helmet or watch cap. I live in interior Alaska and have to keep them in a warm place before putting them on as the metal in the frame can give contact frostbite (like a burn blister) if I leave it exposed to outside temps too long and put it straight on. As long as you don't turn the volume up too loud, you should be able to hear cars or other people just fine. It will never be as safe as exercising on the road without them on, but I really enjoy having music or audio books while I exercise.

Probably better than warm packy snow. Should work well. I am very eased with them

I don't think so but I love them so much. 50s is about the coldest I've tried them and was fine with my upper body layered. Don't think I would want to ride with much colder weather in these.

I only use it for cycling... I guess if its really cold, but I would look at just underarmour

I wear these below freezing without too much trouble. They're cold for the first mile, but fine for the rest of the ride. I'm surprised anyone can stand to wear them in the 60's as I find them unbearably hot above 50 or so. This just goes to show how differently people perceive warmth.

Pair. Love them. Mostly use them in the winter on my fat bike. Get lots of comments on them. They are light and grippy. Banged them on rocks and they hold up

The way they are vented, I doubt they would keep out much dust. I use them street riding, great for that. Although, for the small price and solid quality I would pick up a pair and try it.

Have not had any problems since I put them in couple of years ago. Especially with the amount of snow and freezing temperatures this past winter.

I couldn't say for sure as I cannot speak from experience, but I'd imagine they would work just fine. They have great grip, even when wet. And I occasionally ride with combat boots.

For riding in snow (not ice - yikes!), the skinnier tire the better. I've ridden my 28mm Conti 4-Seasons in a slushy mix before, and they handled pretty well. I think mostly because they're very narrow for 28's...

For the price you can't beat them mine have lasted 2 years of snow plowing so they hold up not bad. It's all about cutting the cheap connectors off and soldering the wires together and shrink tube the joint. Make it water proof . The lights are sealed so that won't be your weather problem, definitely the connectors

In my opinion I think they would hold up in the weather but the matting gets dirty very easily. It shows every foot print or piece of dirt. Hope that helps.

I bike with these gloves when its snowing and freezing outside and they are warm. Ive been impressed with them. I live in pennsylvania where its cold but not the coldest place.
