Motivated to Ride Whatever the Weather Riding in the freezing cold, wet conditions of winter is difficult and takes both motivation and the right kit. And when it comes to your feet you can fuss around with your normal road shoe and overshoes kit combo and still get cold feet or, instead, enjoy the sleek weather protection of the Extreme R GTX winter boots. Thanks to the Gore-Tex® Duratherm Kelvin membrane, featuring insulating hollow-core fibres, these are shoes that provide you with warmth, rated down to -15 degrees Celcius by Northwave, total wind protection and reliable waterproof performance. Comfort is superb as the weather turns cold, wet and nasty. At the ankle, the flexible Easyfit Climaflex collar allows easy pedalling but with its Gore-Tex Rattler® membrane also prevents water from getting in. Inside the shoes, the Arctic 4layer insole adds another layer of insulation from the cold - the four-layer aluminium and fleece construction works with the Gore-Tex membrane to deliver outstanding warmth even when you're cycling in temperatures below freezing. Efficient Winter Pedalling It's not just about weather protection though. Pedalling performance isn't overlooked either. Just like the summer version of this shoe, the Extreme R GTX winter shoes get the stiff and efficient Morph Carbon 12 AAS sole unit. A full-carbon insert at the pedal area imparts outstanding support for a stable pedalling platform while the stiffness rating of 12 out of 15 guarantees direct and positive power transfer, just what you need when building winter miles. XFrame ® Excellence When it comes to long-ride comfort there's little that matches the snug-fitting XFrame® upper. This innovative design holds the foot firmly in place but does so without creating pressure points. The system is closed via Northwave's own SLW2 ratchet system, allowing precise customisation of the fit, even on the move, as well as an easy release at the end of a tough winter ride. Cleat Guidance These Road Shoes are compatible with road bike pedal systems that use cleats with 3-bolt standards, such as: Look Delta and Keo, Shimano SPD-SL, Speedplay Light Action, Zero, X-Series (via 3-hole adapter plate), Campagnolo Pro-Fit, Mavic Zxellium, Time Iclic/Xpresso and Time Impact.
From the intense speed and blur of a crit race to the all-day efforts of conquering high mountain passes, wherever your cycling takes you, the Extreme GT 3 Road Shoes provide the comfort and uncompromising performance to meet your cycling goals.

Dual SLW 3 Closure System The SLW3 dial system, developed by X-Dial, builds and improves upon the previous iterations, making the fit and adjustment of your shoes quicker and easier than ever. It gives micrometric adjustment both to increase foothold and to release pressure. Twist to tighten. Press the side button to release pressure incrementally. All easily done on the go. A single button pull also makes it easy to release the laces at the end of your ride too. Quick. Simple, Durable. Precise. A no-fuss and comfortable fit every time. Morph Carbon 12 Sole with Anatomical Arch Support® Whether chasing a KOM or hitting your power numbers in training, the Morph Carbon 12 Sole, rated 12/15 for stiffness and featuring a full carbon insert at the pedal/cleat contact area, gives outstanding pedalling efficiency and power transfer. It also achieves a low overall weight. When you need an instant response to your power, this is a shoe you can trust. Not only stiff but the Morph 12 also offers superb comfort and foot support. The exclusive Anatomical Arch Support®, using an integrated TPU arch support between the upper and sole, enables the shoe to adapt to the arch while providing the best possible support when cycling. The TPU insert also reduces unwanted flex, offering a more supportive pedalling platform for longer distances. Cleat Guidance These Road Shoes are compatible with road bike pedal systems that use cleats with 3-bolt standards, such as: Look Delta and Keo, Shimano SPD-SL, Speedplay Light Action, Zero, X-Series (via 3-hole adapter plate), Campagnolo Pro-Fit, Mavic Zxellium, Time Iclic/Xpresso and Time Impact.

From the challenging endurance efforts of long-distance mountain biking to the frenetic high-pace of a gravel race, the Extreme XCM 3 MTB Shoes deliver a comfortable and efficient application of power to your pedals. The Carbon XC 12 Sole, rated 12 out of 15 for stiffness, is paired with Northwave's super supportive XFrame 2® upper, making sure your progress across the ground is made with rapid efficiency. Carbon XC 12 Sole Thanks to the Carbon XC 12 Sole, optimal pedalling efficiency meets long-distance comfort in perfect harmony. Put pressure on the pedals and the carbon insert around the cleat zone propels you forward with little wasted effort. However, flex across the medial zone prevents rough trails and vibrations from causing early foot fatigue.

Created for the demands of road riding, and whether that's sprinting for the win, speeding down a fast descent or mixing it up in the peloton, the Assos MET Trenta (MIPS) Jingo RS Cycle Helmet is designed to give outstanding comfort on the bike and reliable protection in the event of a crash. The Assos MET Trenta (MIPS) Jingo RS Helmet uses an EPS foam liner, offering excellent shock-absorbing performance, and providing head protection should you be unfortunate enough to bang your head. This is covered by a tough polycarbonate shell, increasing toughness and long-term durability. MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Trenta also makes use of Mips technology. The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head. Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head. Shop All MIPS Helmets Click Here Feel the Speed While safety is the primary concern, aerodynamic performance has in no way been compromised. The Trenta's tube-shaped tail and internal channelling mean that you benefit from up to 7% less drag than a more traditional road helmet. This is most effective when you're riding in a bunch so when it's time to attack, you'll be the freshest in the bunch. Whilst some aerodynamic designs can feel more closed in, the Trenta has been engineered to keep you cool. Only 30% of the helmet actually touches the head and the front NACA vent and rear deflectors channel air over the head for refreshing airflow when riding. Safe-T Orbital The Trenta also features MET's most adjustable fit system yet. The Safe-T Orbital allows two-step occipital adjustment, four-step vertical adjustment, and a micrometrical dial, all allowing you to fine-tune the fit and ensure your helmet remains secure. Inside, the Air-mesh pads wick away sweat, preventing sweat from running down and stinging the eyes. They're washable too, letting you freshen them up after particularly hot and sweaty rides.
