actually some guy I know did invent heated handlebars for motorcycles/bike


Grip warmers for various motorized vehicles have been around for quite a while and are standard equipment on most snowmobiles. They're rare on bicycles because there's usually no electrical system to power them. They're also less necessary since riding a bike produces more than a little bit of body heat.


Pretty sweet idea.

The killer about gloves is that they don't actually provide heat. They just hold (some of) what you're putting out nearby.

What you really need are heated handlebars plus gloves with holes for your palms.
