Northwave Extreme Rock Bib Short Men's Brown L

Riders tackling gravel roads, flowy singletrack, and all-day adventure routes will appreciate the Northwave Extreme Rock Bib Short. Built with the Sensitive Sculpt® fabric from Eurojersey, these bib shorts deliver a supportive, compressive fit that moves with you on every pedal stroke. The Northwave Explorer Pad provides reliable cushioning for hours in the saddle, while breathable mesh straps keep you cool and comfortable. Two side cargo pockets and a rear mesh pocket offer convenient storage for essentials like energy gels, a phone, or a light shell. Raw-cut leg grippers with silicone dots keep the shorts securely in place without pinching, and flatlock stitching reduces chafing. Reflective details on the legs enhance visibility in low light, and the UPF50+ rating protects your skin during long sunny rides.

Good to know

Northwave recommends washing these bib shorts at 30°C and air drying to maintain the fabric's elasticity and the pad's performance. The Pro Fit is designed to be close-fitting; if you prefer a looser feel, consider sizing up. The UPF50+ rating applies to the covered areas only.
