I just started using tear offs for when i'm riding in snow storms or rain anybody else uses tear offs or roll offs for their commute?

I wear my gaiters over my winter riding shoes but under rain pants for a shingle effect so water & snow can truly be kept out ever try that?

I have not tried that but then I've never had snow infiltrate the gaiters as they come almost up to my knees and rain/water isn’t an issue during our winters here. Keeping warm is more of a concern. What does your layer of clothing consist of beneath the gaiters?

a pair of under armour level 2 most of the time for the most part we only get the rain early and late in the season. Today I'll wear my level 3's and my winter riding pants as it's about 8f and not snowing so no gaiters today.

2 things: who else got mad at him for taking out every single spoke in his wheel, lol

Also, if you do this at home, please wear gloves when handling giant saw blades. Not trying to be a debbie downer but, just don't bare-hand it.

Also, Wish I knew metal working like this dude, pretty impressive stuff... he needs to start selling these...
