Taking feedback on their renowned T.LaalalaiShorts_s7, Assos have given their women's specific bib short design a new lease of life with improvements to fabrics, fit and convenience. The result of their hard work is the Women's UMA GTV Bib Shorts C2. When it comes to taking a quick nature break and getting going again, the 'Bisilick' twin magnetic closure system takes the fuss out of the situation. The old single front closure has been replaced by a twin magnetic closure to the back. This is more comfortable and secure when in the saddle but offers easy convenience for pit stops. Improvements have also been made to the fabrics. Ossidia fabric has been deployed, reducing overall weight while making no compromise to elasticity, compression, or UV protection (UPF50+). You'll also remain cool and fresh thanks to odour control and active cooling. These are permanent characteristics, permanently integrated into the material itself, not applied as a topical treatment The X-Frame bib design stabilises the UMA GT seat pad perfectly in place, ensuring comfort at all times and preventing irritation as you pedal. An updated AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) also realises even greater comfort, with a beautiful fit for all types of rider. Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) Regular Fit Finding the perfect harmony of long-ride comfort and smooth, flexible fit, the Assos AEPD Regular Fit is based upon Assos' race models but it's more accommodating of different shapes and sizes. At the waist, the more forgiving zeroPressure design, with Tech Sheen Mesh insert across the abdomen, also keeps the shorts beautifully in place while allowing optimal flexibility for deep breathing and low riding positions. The comfort also extends to the Ultralight leg grippers. 6mm in depth and minus seams, they provide a secure non-bulge fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from shorts to skin. Women's UMA GT C2 Insert With 9mm of cushioning and the 'floating' design of goldenGate location to move the pad with your body not against you, the Women's UMA GT C2 pad is intensely comfortable, supportive and shock-absorbing. Compressive foam layers provide endurance-focused support on the saddle. The 3D Waffle design uses a three-layer construction, with perforated foams to enhance breathability and airflow. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation while the odour-resistant top sheet maintains freshness.
Epitomising Assos' continuous pursuit of the perfect fit and function on the bike, the Women's UMA GTV Jerseys C2 gives you top-tier performance that will be the envy of even pro riders. From long-distance training efforts to the competitive thrills of racing to the demands of hot, mountainous sportives, it's a jersey you can trust to deliver what you need to perform at your best. Flap-Free Fit Performance and comfort all start with the fit. In this case Assos' regularFit. The body-mapping of seams and panels gives you a streamlined fit that is smooth, flexible and comfortable. At the waist, the Assos zeroPressure design keeps the fit snug but still allows optimal flexibility for both aggressive riding positions and deep breathing. Raw-cut details at the sleeves, hem and zipper give the final touch to this premium jersey, offering a streamlined and irritation-free fit. Performance Fabrics For the main body, Assos uses an advanced fabric with an ultrasoft feel. Called, Sens SN, this textile is now lighter, softer and more breathable than the previous versions of Sens textiles. With exceptional breathability, it ensures superb comfort on your long, hot days in the saddle. And with an Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) of 50+, you'll enjoy outstanding sun protection too. To the back, a Stabilizator V9 panel supports loaded pockets, preventing sagging and stretch. 3-Mesh open-weave textile is used along the sides, giving a boost to breathability and, with its extra stretch, complements the comfortable but streamlined fit. Meanwhile, the Push-Pull collar and sleeves offer a highly breathable and supportive fit. Lastly, befitting a jersey you'll love to wear from sunrise to sunset, reflective details ensure you're easier to see as light is low.
