Aerostich Electric Warmbib

i bought the warmbib because one of my vintage bikes has a very weak electrical system and it cannot support much of an accessory load. the warmbib works just great on this bike. so far it has not overloaded the system at all. on a chilly 45 degree phoenix morning the bib made a usually uncomfortable ride quite comfortable (this bike is unfaired). and it works very well on my large cruiser, too. i'll be getting one for my wife as well. good value.

Since I have received the bib I have not had time to wear it as the weather has been toooo cold to ride. Highs 40 or less. I did pu the bib on and dressed as if I were riding and I really did not feel any difference. It feels as though I have on a heavy sweatshirt. As soon as the weather gets better I plan to try it out on the bike.

I am 5'5" so I thought the regular size would fit well but I am wishing it was 2" longer. Other than that, it heats up very well. I have used it about twenty times now.

I've ridden many times at temps down to 30 or so and been warm with just a proper jacket and a few layers. So I was not interested in an electric jacket or vest. The Warmbib, however, seems to be just right for me. Easy to pack for our AK trip this year, and does a nice job keeping the core nice and warm. Allows one less layer on a cold day. May make all the difference if caught out on a 38 degree and raining day. If you've ever thought: "Electric gear is not for me..." then consider this one. Very nice...also bought one for the wife.

Warming bib does work well under my close fitting Aerostich zipper liner. I would alter the bib to work with just a lined jacket by using a loop neck and a wide (3") belt with velcro close to the bottom of the bib, to hold it close to the body. As it is now, a bit bulky at the neck, especially under the Aerostich liner and with my XL Aerostich liner (I have several), not close enough to my chest to stay warm. It is gratifying to feel the heat under the close fitting liner, making it a success.

Works great, easy to put on and off. Great for those summer unexpected cool spots like high elevations. Also works well for Kentucky winter rides. Takes up very little space.

It seemed like such a good idea, so compact, taking up less room when stowed in my seat pack. Problem is that it needs a strap to keep it close to my chest. It does work as a windbreak, but not so well as a heating element. I tried a fleece vest over it and that works well, but defeats the low bulk storage. I expect that my Kanetsu vest will be my usual heated gear. Perhaps I will carry the vest primarily as a back up for when it gets colder than expected before I get back home. We shall see.

It works great! I wish I had purchased one years ago. I love it on my motorcycle, and will probably use it in the cockpit of my sailboat under foul weather gear.

hello, my wife and i both enjoy our bibs. we live on the oregon coast where the only thing predicable about the weather is that it is unpredictable. even in the summer, the fog can roll in and get chilly fast. we keep two bibs on board all the time in the bottom compartment of our tank bag on our 1999 cbr 1100xx. we recently went to canada and used them several times on the trip. nice and handy without taking up much room. last use was to keep pizza warm in the tank bag on the way home, worked great!!!!!!

works really well, put the heat right where you need it , over your heart, and your heart circulates warm blood out to the hands and feet. remarkably effective.
