I have a few rides in with the Element 1.5 gloves between 20-35 degrees F, and they have worked great so far. I don't think I'll need to put my pogies on until it gets well under 15F. I'm really happy with the grip of the gloves as well, I don't feel like I'm compromising warmth for control. By the end of one of my rides it was nearing 35F, and the gloves did start to get a bit warm, but I believe they are rated for a little colder than that, so I'm not saying it's a bad thing.
