ABSTRACT:
A handlebar hand cover made of lightweight, flexible material and designed to fit over a handlebar's hand grip and protect the rider's hand and wrist when placed thereon. More specifically, the hand cover includes a water-proof outer shell with an internal cavity sufficiently large so that the rider can operate the brake lever or other controls located adjacent to the hand grip. The outer shell is made of top and bottom panels attached together along their front peripheral edges. The medial and lateral peripheral edges of the top and bottom panels are selectively attached together which enable the rider to remove his hand outward through the hand cover in an emergency or sudden stop. An optional insulating lining may be used to provide additional warmth. Also, an additional reflective surface may be attached to the outer shell of the hand cover to improve visibility.
