northwave EXTREME XCM 3 MTB Shoes

The EXTREME XCM 3 MTB shoes by northwave are designed to help you rule the trail! The mountain bike shoes are the successor of the popular GHOST XCM 2 model and impress with their Carbon XC 12 sole with full carbon insert in the cleat area. The integrated and anti-slip fabric at the heel makes for a perfect fit, while the Race insole optimises power transfer.
In addition, strategically positioned TPU inserts ensure high traction and outstanding abrasion resistance. The XFRAME 2 construction transfers every watt of power while ensuring a snug fit. The double S.L.W.3. dial differentiates the pressure between the top of the instep and the toe for even better adaptability. Last but not least, highly abrasion-resistant, very thin rubber reinforcements provide all-round protection along the shoes’ upper.

CARBON XC 12:
Thanks to a full carbon insert in the pedal area, the CARBON XC12 sole offers good stiffness for efficient pedalling. Thanks to a flexible material in the midfoot area, this sole is perfectly suitable for long-distance riding as well. Strategically positioned TPU panels guarantee high traction and excellent wear resistance. A minimalist design allows the manufacturer to only use materials where they are really needed for maximum efficiency. Stiffness index: 12.0

S.L.W.3 SYSTEM CLOSURE:
The two speed lace system closures on the shoes provide perfect support and optimal fit for your feet, are functional and fast to use: Simply open and close the shoes with a flick of the wrist. The large dials allow for precise tensioning of the wires. The shoes can be fully opened at once or step by step.

XFRAME 2:
The X-FRAME closure system guides the Speed Lacing wires in a special way so that the load is evenly distributed over the entire instep. Thus, it holds your feet securely inside the shoes for efficient power transfer and high comfort.

For the best fit, ROSE recommends ordering the shoes one size up.
