I have been using 100% products since their comeback to the motocross scene a few years ago. I have several pairs of their goggles for motocross and have been using the i-track glove on both the dirt bike and mountain bike. I have come to trust the quality and performance of their products.
The Brisker glove has been my most recent 100% purchase and I have been using them for below 50°f riding since Nov. 2015. I chose a black pair in size Large. The glove is easy to put on and take off but the fit is a little funny. My right glove fits as well as I could hope for but the left one does not fit as well. The thumb of the left glove is a little bit long, leaving about 4mm of excess material hanging off the end. This could be a manufacturing defect or my left thumb could be shorter than the right one. All other digits of the left glove fit well.
The palm of the glove has no padding, which is my preference. It is a bit thicker than the palm of my i-track but not bulky. There is just a small reduction in feel. The silicone printing on the palm has no real effect on the traction between the glove and grip that I can detect. Touchscreen capability is intermittent at best. It mostly works when the fingertips are damp. I experience the same issue with my pair of i-track gloves.
The top is the centerpiece of this pair of gloves. It has a thick, soft shell that is still flexible and not at all bulky. It has served me well in temps down to 25°f and kept my hands dry in moderate rain. I have nothing to say about the top other than exceptional. The interior has a very nice fleece feeling material that keeps my hands feeling toasty.
This is the only winter riding glove I have ever owned so if there is something better on the market it is probably damn near perfect. The fit of my pair is lacking, and if they werent advertised as touchscreen compatible I couldnt have cared less about the lack of performance in that aspect of the glove. When all is said and done there were some issues, so it loses out on a couple stars. Overall im happy with the Brisker and would buy myself another pair as well as recommend them to a freiend.
Edit: Two days after writing this review I went for a morning ride on a newly extended greenway trail located about a mile from my house. The temperature was 18°F and the trail is shaded in the morning as it runs N/S on the W side base of a small mountain. This is the coldest condition I have used the Brisker glove in and I believe I found its limit. My fingers were numb after about 10mins. The top of my hand stayed warm however. Next time I plan to ride in temps less than 25°F with the Brisker I will add a wool glove liner underneath.
