45NrthDraugenklaw Pogies ( Flat Bar )(Return to Product Page)

I bought Cobrafists for my fat bike and Draugenklaws for my daughter's fat bike. We love them both and would not trade for anything different. They attach fast and work great. The bar end attachment method is fantastic. The Cobrafists are thicker and more substantial, have more features (like a drawstring to make the opening smaller for more warmth), and seal around cables better. Access with the Cobrafists is fine, but the Draugenklaws are shorter and even easier to get your hands into, and can be rolled down for even better access. I have 2 sets of Barmitts for my other bikes. They are warm despite being thin, but harder to get into, and I hate how they wrap around the grip to stay in place. 45Nrth's method with bar ends is much better. My newest set of Barmitts is falling apart and I do not recommend them. I plan on replacing them with Draugenklaws for my ebike (the shorter length will make seeing the power level easier). My suggestion is to get Cobrafists if maximum warmth and quality is needed, and Draugenklaws for a little less warmth but better access.

I've been using poggies for a long time. Have used the cobra fists for many years and found them to be too hot for days above 15. These are perfect for those not so cold days.

I was expecting more protection from these than I got. Air leaks in where the Pogies fit around the cables, and I just didn't get enough protection from the elements. Even with my winter gloves on, my hands got cold. Maybe it is user error in attaching the Pogies, but I'm pretty sure I followed the directions accurately. I'll try them again next winter, and see if I can solve the air leak problem.

Love these. They are perfect for my fat bike and even drop a handwarmer pack in there on cold days. Heads up, you do need open bar ends to use these. I had to cut the end off of my Santa Cruz Palmdales, but the included bar plugs finish it off nice and look great without the pogies on as well.

If you want to keep your hands warm during long cold rides Pogies REALLY work. For Pacific NW weather the DRAUGENKLAW Pogies are perfect.
