Assos Equipe R Bib Shorts S9 Men

The definitive bib shorts for competitive, committed cyclists from the company that originally defined the racing shorts genre - and continues to lead in driving it forward. 

Featured Fabrics

Type.441 is a gently compressive, silky smooth material that feels more abrasion-resistant than your typical bib short material because it is. It also actively cools while protecting against UV rays and resisting odor. 

Construction/Fit

A-Lock Engineering is our S9 racingFit realized for bib shorts. Every fabric panel, strap, and stitch is engineered for stability and confident comfort. ASSOS shorts are legendary; this fit design is why. 

Engineering

Butterfly Pattern: The main textile panel wraps the lower back and legs, reducing seams and providing a more uniform compression across the shorts' body. 

Carbon Xbib: An A-frame bib that vertical stretch in the rear, ensuring a confident fit and stabilizing the chamois and main body panel. 

Ultralight Leg Grippers: The leg bands feature a silicone treatment woven through the bands themselves, creating a secure hold without restriction or lumpy transitional ridges. 

Equipe RS Insert: Antibacterial microfiber booster top sheet in 3D basalt colorway. Pays homage to the lava stone that gives us strength, stability and courage. 

GoldenGate: A stitching pattern that anchors the front and back but lets the insert's body float, allowing the insert to move with your body rather than against it. 

superAir microshock foam: A light, shock-absorbing foam that springs back to its original shape, filling the gaps that open and close between body and insert during the pedal stroke

kraterCooler: Perforations in the insert's leading edge that draw air across the insert to maintain cooling breathability on hot summer days.
