what's the lowest temps these have been used in? any 14 deg and below rides? may 20 deg with some serious wind chills?

Ridden in the teens with these. They are very wind proof and usually I wear a pair of tights under them and they are warm and toasty. My feet are the problem! Remember to order Very Big. I am 32" waist, 160# & 5'-11"+ and XXL worked for me.

Shouldn't be a problem, I ride in the heat of Central California and 29 Palms and they are fine. I keep them in room temperature when at home. Just keep them dry.

I've had them operate well at over 100°F (mounted in shade). Have not had them exposed below 4°F but they did fine there, too.

That is an excellent question that I have not experimented with to date. I suspect that if there is no wind you could get it down to 150F. The lowest I have cooked with has been 180F. Trust me though, the wood smokes better at 200 and above. Hope that helps.

I received this bike just before weather turned cold. I haven't ridden it much so can't answer your question, sorry.

I find them warm enough down to about 35 degrees or so and calm (no wind)... After that, or with wind chill, you really need to use them as liners under a mitten or other insulated glove.

I use the snowmobile ones on my Spyder. The snowmobile ones just get warmer. I use high to warm things up and then switch to low to keep them warm. I ride in temps down in the low 30's with no issues.

I wish I could tell you. Mine are not super tight & it's been super cold where I am & I have found them to be good. Granted--on one case I did add hand warmers but it was 4-degrees & windy.

Yes, the temperature probably should be above about 50 degrees. Higher would be better. I installed mine when the outside temperature was about 80. They are real well stuck.

Well, a lot of them. i had mine go out (as ecotemp said) and i don't think it got below 38f. if you do have a problem with yours im sure they will say it's because you let it freeze. thats what all their complaints are about it seems. and their customer service is non existent, they just said it was all my fault then (get this) he hung up on me. i never raised my voice (but he did) i tried to call back and they would not pick up my call. i will never even think about using them again. good luck!

I live in Florida and I have not had the chance to ride much during the cold... But I would say you may need a little extra protection as the insulation is a little thin...

They are slightly warm, when it is 90 degrees, they are too warm to wear, when it is zero they do not do much good. I think the sweet spot is between 45 and 65 degrees.

The vents provide enough air for me. I ride a couple times a week in central Florida. Unless you are really sensitive to heat I think this would be ok.

I bought a pair of these in late September. After about 150 miles of running something within them has given way and makes a noticeable rattling on the control (right ear) side.. They still work though, but just bear in mind that they are a consumable that will not last for years on end. Given that they are rechargeable, I figured I'd get about 18-24 solid months out of them, but sadly that may not be the case. I'll use them till they fail or if the rattling becomes overly obnoxious. I've used them in warm temps, freezing temps, light rain and snow and they work just fine. They aren't water/weatherproof, but given the physical breakdown I'll have no qualms against using them out in the elements. I bought a pair of these in late September.

I am from Iowa and the temps stay below 0 for days. No problem if the do not have any moisture inside, which mine never have maybe because I keep the sensor 2-4 inches above ground level.

Yes. I've only ever flown them in January in below freezing temps with snow on the ground.

No wind noise since they ride pretty low. You can open the sun roof to feel the wind at that point. Mileage.. Since I put them on, I've been carrying my kayak and stuff. Mileage would go down while you carry stuff.. probably not when they are empty.
