If your hands freeze while gripping those cold metal noodles in the winter, check out the new 45NRTH Draugenklaw pogies, which are made specifically for drop bars. Find all the details here…

I’ve never given much thought to using pogies here in the southeast, but I’m pretty sure my hands get about three times colder while riding a drop-bar bike in the winter—something about the amount of surface area on the bars, or perhaps the need to change positions often. Either way, 45NRTH came up with a solution for dro-bar riders in colder climates. Their new Draugenklaw Drop Bar Pogies are designed to keep your hands warm and dry and allow the full use of brake and integrated shift levers. They were made with cold commutes, training rides, races, and touring in mind.
