Bib shorts built for cross-country racing and training balancing the best qualities of road and mountain shorts in a World Cup-proven design. We’ve sacrificed far too many pairs of road-only shorts to the capricious trail gods so we engineered a more durable solution that balances the breathability and stretch of our road bibs with the thigh-girding protection of ripstop panels on the outer legs. The final construction is the result of prototype testing on the legs of our World Cup riders who swept the 2017 team standings while assuring us that these are the most breathable abrasion-resistant bib shorts they’ve ever worn. 65%PA 25%EA 10%PE
Assos Women's Dyora RS Bib Shorts S9The Women's Dyora RS Bib Shorts S9 take comfort on the bike to a new level. Created for those of you who love to race and ride fast, they make no compromises in their pursuit of performance. Engineered for the Female AthleteThe Women's Dyora RS Bib Shorts S9 are borne of Assos' desire to make the best performing and most comfortable shorts for the most demanding of women cyclists. Engineered with a host of innovative features they provide incredible comfort when you're climbing and descending, out of the saddle sprinting, in the saddle pushing hard on the pedals and moving over long hours of riding. They're designed to offer comfort during even the toughest of race conditions.A-Lock EngineeringA-Lock engineering is all about using new fabrics and technologies to create a short with incredible stability and a seat insert that is perfectly positioned at all times. The start of this system is a new fabric, Type.441 textile. This is a fabric which has exceptional compression qualities and with its silk feel is incredibly comfortable against the skin. Not only that it's quick-wicking, anti-odour and durable, the perfect fabric for performance cycling.Float like a ButterflyThe next phase of the A-Lock engineering system are significant advances in the panel and construction design, leading to incredibly stable shorts and a seat insert that stays in place perfectly. Firstly the panelling number is reduced, reducing complexity and weight while enhancing comfort. The result of using fewer panels is also a reduction in seams, again boosting comfort through the elimination of chafing while also saving more weight. The panels are then engineered into Assos' unique 'butterfly' panel design, snugly wrapping the legs and back to create a brand new ergoBox structure. This holds the insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and comfort no matter how intense your efforts or how much you shift weight.rollBar Bib DesignThe bib straps also get completely redesigned, with a brand new rollBar system for unrivalled support of the lower shorts section. The rollBar system acts just like an anti-sway bar in a car, the straps stabilising and securing the seat insert in place as you move. The straps are attached across the same seam as the insert, maintaining the perfect degree of tension as you transfer weight in and out of the saddle.The bib straps themselves are made from a combination of highly elastic materials and a single piece in the back forming an A-frame which supports the shorts perfectly. In the front, the straps are made of a more flexible material, with an antibacterial carbon weave, to wick moisture and lay flat - the result is extremely lightweight straps you will barely notice. They're positioned wider apart at the front too, taking into account the female anatomy and accommodating a wide range of body shapes. Women's DYORA RS InsertAt the heart of the Dyora RS Bib Shorts is the women's specific Women's DYORA RS Insert. This seat pad takes race-focused comfort to a whole new level. Assos use an incredibly soft antibacterial microfiber next to the skin to offer all-day freshness. Next comes a 3D three-layer perforated waffle foam which both boosts breathability and reduces weight and bulk. Then a superAir microShock foam core offers incredible shock absorption and memory return, it re-adapts to your body position every time you shift weight, leading to unrivalled support when in and out of the saddle. Lastly, the goldenGate technology, a patented desing, sees interrupts stitching along both of the insert’s side panels to allow more three-dimensional freedom of movement in this sensitive, rotational area.In conclusion, Assos has once again redefined what high-performance race shorts are, pushing fabric and engineering technology to new levels.

The Castelli Free Protect Race Bibshort was developed after Chris Froome requested a set of bibshorts that would offer greater protection in the early stages of grand tours, when every rider is vying for a place at the front of the peloton and crashes are a frequent occurrence.Castelli found inspiration for the bibshorts from an old trick used by track riders. Knowing that Lycra sliding on Lycra is the best way to prevent or reduce road rash on your hip, track cyclists would wear two pairs of shorts. Castelli has taken this idea and put an extra layer of Lycra over the hip and thigh panel meaning that you get the same fabric-on-fabric shear force that you get from wearing two pairs of shorts.The extra panel adds minimal weight and is made from a layer of Castelli’s Vortex fabric. An internal layer of stretch woven fabric furthers protection and is reinforced with a ripstop grid made from Dyneema – the same yarn used for rock climbing ropes, reinforcement in sails for the America Cup, and bullet proof vests – helping prevent the inner layer from ripping.The Castelli Free Protect Race Bibshort uses the construction and components as Castelli’s tried and tested Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort that has been tested and developed over millions of kilometres in the pro peloton. A mesh bib helps you stay cool and the Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad features generous padding making all-day rides no problem.The Castelli Free Protect Race Bibshort was made for the pros but every cyclist knows the risk of sliding out. Whether riding on gravel or smashing your local crits the added protection of the Castelli Free Protect Race Bibshort will give you the peace of mind needed to focus fully on your riding.Key Features:Double-layer side panels for extra protection in case of a fall,Ideal for gravel riding and crit racing,Developed in response to a request from Chris Froome for bibshorts that offered greater protection against road rash,Smooth layer of Vortex fabric backed by a stretch woven fabric that features a Dyneema ripstop grid,Mesh bib construction to help you keep cool,Same construction as Castelli’s top race shorts, the Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort,Flat-lock stitching,Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad,Temperature comfort range of 15° – 32°C,Weight 203g (Large).
If you love nothing more than discovering new roads and trails to ride, and the sense of adventure as new vistas open up, the Unlimited Cargo Bib Shorts are for you. It matters not whether you’re out for a few hours, all day or even multiple day trips, the extra pockets are super-useful to have. You have a total of four pockets to load up with extra kit. Cargo pockets on each thigh and mesh pockets across the back. The thigh pockets expand to hold lots of gear but compress to prevent bouncing around. Pocket flaps also prevent your stuff from flying out when you hit the rough stuff. Castelli’s tried, and trusted GIRO⁴ leg grippers keep the shorts in place as you whizz across roads and trails. A raw edge and vertical silicone stripes offer a firm hold without excess compression too. And then there’s the premium Kiss Air 2 Seat Pad, offering perfect comfort for anything from fast XC mountain bike rides to multi-day gravel bike adventures.
