Made from InfraRed Yarns with a high percentage of elastomer, the RSR Socks are designed for the rigours of both racing and hard training sessions. The elastomer provides compressive support across the foot and when blended with Lycra you'll enjoy a firm non-slip hold over the ankle and lower leg. A mesh arch support provides a boost to comfort and increases airflow to rapidly evaporate sweat leading to a cooler foot. With their seamless construction, you'll also enjoy friction-free comfort - these are socks you'll soon forget you're wearing.
The Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket is brilliant for cool and breezy days on the bike and, should the conditions turn to damp and drizzly, it's water-resistant too. A 3-layer softshell, with a NOES MILD membrane, provides complete protection from cold winds, rain showers, road-spray and plunging temperatures – all without sacrificing breathability. On the tops of the arm, a brushed bi-stretch RX material adds insulation, while the under arms and back-panel boost breathability with Type.157 – a breathable, circular-knit fabric. Designed with regularFit, the Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket is built for optimal riding comfort, allowing room for additional layers, should you need them. The Triple Ramp rear pockets provide plenty of space for gels and bars on longer rides and, reflective accents ensure you're more visible when the light fades. The weather is hard to predict, but the Assos Women's UMA GT Spring/Fall Jacket will ensure you’re cycling comfortably through whatever spring or autumn has in store.
In the cooler air of spring and autumn, the front of the Assos TRAIL Spring/Fall Men's Jacket protects your body and shoulders with an all-new, ultra-soft material called RX TECH Melange. Brushed on the inside, it provides just the right level of insulation to keep you warm as you swoop and roll down free-flowing singletrack. Featuring the same textile technology as the Assos TRAIL jerseys, the light and flexible back-panel material adds breathability and pulls moisture away from the layers below. Inside, the sleeves feature a lightly brushed RX fabric for a touch of extra insulation. They also feature abrasion-resistant dyneRope - fifteen times stronger than steel, this fibre is blended with a black polyethene and is strategically placed to protect exposed areas. It covers the elbows for added protection against scratching, pulling and abrasion from trailside obstacles. The double-slider zip helps you regulate your ventilation from top or bottom and, the inside pocket is the perfect place for keys and other valuables. Assos' trailFit keeps the cut slim and trim so you're not slowed down but it still offers the stretch and flexibility you need to hit berms, kickers and rocky, rooty sections with unhindered freedom of movement and brimming with confidence.
Extensive riding and testing in spring and autumn led Assos to create the ASSOSOIRES Spring Fall Socks, marrying the lightweight comfort of your favourite summer socks with a touch of insulation to fend off cooler temperatures. To enhance moisture transfer the socks feature a unique hexagonal and square knit, it quickly wicks moisture through the yarns to the outer surface, ensuring your feet stay dry and comfortable inside your shoes. The seamless construction removes any irritation, a ribbed arch provides enhanced support across the foot and a reflective band up the back keeps you safe and seen in lower light conditions. With the spring/fall yellow climaCode you'll also know which socks to grab from your sock drawer.
The Assos Women’s TRAIL Spring/Fall Jacket protects your torso and shoulders from the cool spring and autumn air, using RX TECH Melange – an all-new, ultra-soft material, brushed on the inside to keep you warm and insulated as you speed down the mountainside. Keeping you dry, the breathable back-panel pulls moisture from the layers below, using the same material and technology from the Assos TRAIL jersey range. Your arms will appreciate the extra insulation from the lightly brushed RX fabric inside the sleeves and, the dyneRope covered elbows will protect your arms from abrasion. The double-slider zip provides the option to ventilate from the top or bottom, while the inside pocket is the perfect place for keys and other valuables. With temperature changes often noticeable between the top and bottom of the trail, the Assos Women's TRAIL Spring/Fall Jacket is essential for your spring and autumn mountain bike kit bag.
There comes a point in the year when the seasons begin to transition and summer shorts are no longer warm enough and yet pulling on full winter tights isn't quite necessary. Enter the Equipe RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9 - cosy shorts for training and racing in the cooler conditions of autumn and spring. Warmth and Breathability in Harmony The thigh panels are made from Assos' heavyweight brushed-back Osmos Heavy material - super-soft against the skin, insulating and yet highly breathable, it ensures a perfect temperature whether it's a hard early-season race effort or a steady autumnal spin.

To the front, around your more sensitive areas, you'll also be happy to find windproof Sphere Ultra textile in a double-layer, locking out icy blasts while still maintaining breathability for comfort. Race Proven Comfort Keeping the shorts comfortably in place is Assos' A-Lock Engineering bib design, featuring rollBar braces, creating a short that's perfectly stabilised and holding the seat insert in the correct position at all times. Speaking of the seat pad, this is Assos' EQUIPE RS Insert. In order to boost warmth, the ventilation holes from the summer version are removed but everything else remains - the superAir microShock foam, 3D waffle and goldenGate technology - making for incredible comfort on the saddle.

Come spring and autumn, temperatures may not be as extreme as the depths of winter, but a short sleeve jersey, arm warmers, and gilet may not cut it when it comes to comfort and warmth. The Equipe RS Spring Fall Jacket is there to fill the gap in those hard to dress for transitional months. Made from Push-Pull exterior and more insulating Rhombus on the inside, the twinDeck construction offers an incredible combination of insulation and breathability. This is then complemented by Assos' unique and exclusive Diffusor 'air-valve' system on the shoulders - these vents draw in cooling air to circulate between the two layers, preventing overheating and regulating body temperature. When you're on the limit, there's now no need to unzip to cool the body and you can remain low and aero - perfect for racing. The Equipe RS Spring/Fall collection is designed to allow riders to train harder (higher HR and watts) at lower temperatures while maintaining that perfect micro-climate - not too clammy, not too cold, not too hot. Assos aeroFit As you'd expect of a cycling jacket with race-ready credentials, the Assos aeroFit delivers a very close to the body, compressive fit to ensure reduced excess drag and no wasted energy when you're in the pace-line. The sleeves are made with Assos' SONIC fabric, a lightly brushed insulating fabric that perfectly moulds to the arms and features ribbed detailing to improve aerodynamics. Raw cut edges ensure a low profile fit with gloves and maintains the aerodynamics of the body. Whether it's testing fitness in fast and furious early season races or slow and steady autumn training, whatever your ride you'll remain perfectly comfortable when you pull on the Equipe RS Spring Fall Jacket during the transitional seasons of the year.
Created to give you extra warmth without sacrificing aero performance, the Equipe RS Spring Fall Aero Cycling Jersey comes into its own when cool weather begins to make an impact on your choice of cycling kit. Aero. Warm. Comfortable. Think of those early and late season races, where intensity is high but temperatures are on the wane. You'll more often than not begin with a gilet on, but be pulling it off when the speed picks up, then pulling it on again for a chilly descent - a definite hassle. When racing or training, the Equipe RS Spring Fall Aero reduces the need for such layering. This is all thanks to its lightweight two-layer, highly breathable, thermal body fabric locking in warmth. Meanwhile, unique cooling Diffusor 'air valves' to the front regulate the body temperature. These Assos-exclusive vents draw in air from the outside and allow it to circulate between the double-layer fabric, regulating body temperature while maintaining aerodynamics - no more having to unzip a jersey and spoil your aero tuck when you want to dump excess heat and humidity.

With the rs.sturmPrinz EVO Windproof jacket the objective was to create the ideal rain and wind-protective jacket for high-performance cycling, no holds barred and no corners cut by the accountants. However, Assos' aim was not to make a 100% waterproof jacket. Why not? Because 100% waterproof also means 100% impermeable - sweat builds up and can't escape. Not what you want. The evaporation process must be proactive, it mustn't be slowed excessively by your protective shell - which ultimately leads to cold and chills. To this end the rs.sturmPrinz EVO protects but also breathes incredibly well-maintaining body temperature and comfort. Assos have calibrated and optimised the balance between insulation and protection, without jeopardising your performance, giving you a functional, intelligently engineered, cycling-specific anti-rain device that works! This has been achieved through the use of exclusive TRITON fabric, specifically engineered by Assos for the rs.sturmPrinz jacket. The sturmPrinz use two versions of TRITON. The front panel features TRITON V1, a robust fabric engineered to be more resistant, and the back panel uses the lighter, more breathable TRITON V2. Ergonomically shaped to fit your body in the cycling position the jacket sits close and then follows your movements. Thanks to the high-performance TRITON fabric, ASSOS have been able to tailor the jacket closer to the body, resulting in less volume and no “balloon effect,” providing total freedom of movement. This is a jacket ideally suited for hard riding and racing on-the-rivet when the rain is incessant.

At the back, a tall elastic hem, with silicone grippers, holds the shorts firmly in place - no annoying slippage here.
