During autumn the high temperatures of summer cycling are a fast-fading memory. Or you’ll be glad to be waving goodbye to the freezing temperatures of winter as milder spring weather arrives. During the transitional seasons, the Spring Fall Gloves EVO give you just the right degree of warmth for cooler days on the bike. The brushed back fabric holds onto body heat while at the same time it lets your skin breathe, preventing discomfort from sweat build-up. The low-bulk insulation also means you have excellent dexterity while the anatomic fit prevents bunching and gives a natural feel for your handlebars. The microfibre palm gives a secure grip of bars and hoods. Targeted padding also provides pressure relief and some welcome shock absorption over rougher roads. The extended cuff enables layering under jackets or warmers, and the pull tab makes for easy on and off. The ideal glove worn alone in cool weather or layer under the Assos Thermo Rain Shell Gloves when it’s wet.
Using the insulating power of Assos’ warmest 290g/m² OSMOS Heavy material, the Winter Face Mask EVO offers all over warmth when you’re facing training rides in the freezing cold.

This gives protection from road spray and the bite of windchill. It also features a four-way stretch fit and is perforated with micro-holes to increase breathability without sacrificing protection. TwinDeck construction also adds two-layer protection in vulnerable areas while the extended apron extends coverage below your jersey or jacket collar. A raw cut face opening provides a smooth and comfortable fit while the opening can be stretched over the chin to increase ventilation when you need it.

The Superléger Short Sleeve Cycling Base Layer has its focus on two specific areas of cycling. Firstly, it's created for the specific demands of indoor training and racing. Worn as your only top layer during indoor training, it optimises moisture-wicking performance, ventilation and breathability, keeping you cooler as you generate increased levels of body heat and sweat. The body-mapped design makes use of two types of open mesh, promoting both airflow and moisture management. You'll also find the second area in which it excels is the hottest days of outdoor cycling. Paired with the lightest race jersey in your kit drawer, the blend of polypropylene yarns have been carefully engineered to offer extra moisture control and a lightly compressive fit for added comfort as the mercury rises. When it comes to fit, the Superléger uses Circular Seamless tubular knit technology to give a smooth, second-skin fit that's free of areas of irritation. Set-in sleeves are also used to allow for the optimal movement level, whether your main layer or under a cycling jersey.
Temperature regulation, insulation and moisture control are all key performance characteristics of the latest ASSOSOIRES Winter Skin Layer. Worn as the base under your winter cycling outer and mid-layers, the blend of carbon and polypropylene yarns offers a significant improvement in both warmth and moisture control compared to its predecessors. Body warmth is maintained, heat is retained and at the same time, the yarns quickly draw moisture off your skin. This leaves you dry and comfortable and less prone to feeling cold from sweat build-up after harder efforts. Elastane fibres are also used to give the base layer its close to the body stretch fit and allow for easy mobility too. And with a Circular Knit construction, there are no seams to cause undue irritation. It's the perfect first layer of your winter cycling wardrobe.
