Flagship Performace The flagship EQUIPE RS Bib Shorts S9 TARGA is a redesign of its RS S9 predecessor, with a reduction in weight and bulk while maintaining superb flexibility, muscle compression and aerodynamic fit. You'll also find materials that dry quicker - ensuring soaked up perspiration doesn't add unnecessary mid-ride weight. Across the lower abdomen, an Ossidia material panel offers greater stretch than previously achieved. This allows for more comfort, easing pressure when you're in a low riding position while also expanding during deep-breathing high-intensity efforts. Elsewhere, lightly compressive and silky Type.441 is not only superbly comfortable but also provides excellent abrasion resistance. Active cooling is ideal for hot summer rides and it's UV protective and odour-resistant too. Speed and Comfort Harmonised The RS S9s are made with the Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) RacingFit. This is tuned to provide you with shorts that deliver stability, comfort and a smooth, streamlined race-ready fit. ASSOS shorts are legendary; this fit design is why. The aero comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 6mm in depth and using LYCRA®, they provide a secure fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from short to skin. A-Lock Engineering The A-Lock system combines Assos' rollBar bib straps, modified ergoBox, and one-piece Butterfly panel to give you shorts that fit beautifully no matter what. Whether it's high-intensity bursts of speed or long endurance efforts, this engineered design maintains superb stability as you shift weight in and out of the saddle. Assos' unique 'butterfly' panel design, snugly wraps the legs and back to create the ergoBox structure. This holds the S9 insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and comfort throughout your pedal stroke and when you're shifting weight on the saddle. S9 Sundeck Insert Taking their already super-comfortable S9 insert, Assos have made improvements to make it lighter, cooler and minimise its footprint, all to enhance comfort still further. The first improvement is what Assos call the Sundeck Superlight. This is a luxuriously soft front panel that increases airflow while eliminating pressure in this most sensitive area. Then comes Assos' whirlKrater. Again this is all about airflow, with copious perforations added throughout the insert, creating a whirlwind of cooling airflow. What hasn't changed is the odour-resistant top sheet for all-day freshness. You also retain the benefits of 9mm shock-absorbing foam, taking the buzz out of rougher roads. 3D Waffle inserts keep bulk low and allow more air circulation. And Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation. Lastly, there's the goldenGate. The unique stitching pattern allows the insert to 'float' allowing the pad to move with you for optimal comfort.
The Best Got Better The RSR S9 bib shorts set a new standard for bib short performance. But there's always room for improvement. The EQUIPE RSR Bib Shorts S9 TARGA have improvements to both stretch and support, with targetted compression where it's needed most, reduced pressure in sensitive areas and dialled in aerodynamics to maximise your fitness. Faster-drying fabrics also limit perspiration’s ability to add weight from soaking into the textile. A combination of woven Type.701kompressor textile and Ossidia inserts give the shorts a near frictionless fit. Not only that, the ultrathin yarns are extremely elastic, allowing for superb muscle compression and flexibility, ensuring pedalling has never felt easier. Carbon Xbib Construction The A-frame suspension design of the Carbon Xbib limits the vertical stretch to the back of the shorts. This provides a secure and stable position of the S9 seat pad at all times. The Dual-face Carbon material is now quicker drying, an improvement upon the previous single-sided design. Built for Speed As you'd expect, the RSR S9 TARGA shorts are engineered with Assos RacingFit. This second-skin fit maximises your speed while also optimising flexibility and comfort. The leg length is also extended when compared to the Equip RS and Mille GT lines. Smooth aerodynamics extends to the leg grippers. The Assos skinGrip cuffs give compressive support across the thighs, with silicone grippers to provide a secure non-slip fit. Minimal transitional ridges between skin and shorts keep airflow smooth. A-Lock Engineering The A-Lock system combines Assos' rollBar bib straps, modified ergoBox, and one-piece Butterfly panel to give you shorts that fit beautifully no matter what. Whether it's high-intensity bursts of speed or long endurance efforts, this engineered design maintains superb stability as you shift weight in and out of the saddle. Assos' unique 'butterfly' panel design, snugly wraps the legs and back to create the ergoBox structure.

Exceed Expectations Racing at the highest level puts extreme demands on riders and their kit, what with the hours of movement, changes of weather, climbing and descending, changes of the road surface and constant in and out of the saddle accelerations. This level of performance requirements has pushed Assos' engineers to create a host of new comfort-focused features which can meet and exceed the demands of even the harshest of race conditions. The result is the Equipe RS Bib Shorts S9 featuring A-Lock engineering and rollBar bib technology. A-Lock Engineering A-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 Butterfly The next phase of the A-Lock engineering system is significant advances in the panel and construction design, leading to incredibly stable shorts and seat insert. Firstly the panelling, the class-leading S7 shorts used a four-panel construction, whereas the S9 now features just two. The result of using just two panels is a reduction in seams leading to less weight and more comfort. Those two 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. rollBar Bib Design The 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 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. S9 Insert At the heart of the S9 Shorts is the S9 insert, taking race-focused comfort to a whole new level. Assos use an incredibly soft antibacterial microfiber next to the skin and when combined with the kraterCooler ventilation holes at the front of the pad you're guaranteed all-day freshness. Next comes a 3D three-layer perforated waffle foam which both boosts breathability and reduces weight and bulk. Lastly, the 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. A pad designed for the rigours of the World Tour so you get the very best comfort possible. In conclusion, Assos has once again redefined what high-performance race shorts are, pushing fabric and engineering technology to new levels. Their finest fitting and most comfortable shorts to date, letting you push your performance beyond your expectations.
Setting a New Standard This isn't a jacket for taking it easy in. The aerodynamically efficient EQUIPE RS Winter Jacket excels the harder you press on the pedals and the more watts you push out. Created for the pro-athlete and demanding year-round rider, Assos have carefully and precisely engineered every textile to be 'activated' with effort. It creates a winter-proof jacket with the very best balance of insulation and exceptional breathability, perfectly regulating body temperature during your long training rides and races. Engineered Excellence Its exceptional performance is made possible by its unique construction, material mix and a new breed of remarkably light softshell fabrics called SPHERE. This replaces Assos' long-running Stratagon and offers membrane-equipped materials of variable thicknesses to tune waterproofing and flexibility perfectly for cycling hard. The inner front panel is made of several ultrathin layers of SPHERE. It's akin to a mid-layer chest protector and is brilliant at wicking moisture away to the outer layers. Then comes 3-layer wind- and waterproof SPHERE Light to the outside. Brushed on the inside it provides both warmth and weather protection. A thicker and more insulating version of the same 3-layer material is used across the upper back and forearms, boosting warmth. To boost climate control, Assos have deployed their Diffusor “valves” at the shoulders, allowing air inside to prevent overheating. Moving to the back, OSMOS Heavy is the most insulating of Assos' brushed-backed materials. And the jacket’s built-in mid-layer is made with lighter, more breathable OSMOS Light while the upper arms are wrapped in windproof warp-knit 3L ZigZaggy Foam. Assos Layering System The EQUIPE RS Winter Jacket forms part of a cycling layering system, engineered to work beautifully together. For most winter conditions it works perfectly as a stand-alone winter jacket. However, for extremely harsh conditions use it with an Assos Thermobooster Mid Layer for added insulation. For extra coverage in humid or extra-demanding weather, deploy your Clima Capsule Jacket over the top. Either of these Assos layers conveniently stows in the Winter Jacket's Thermobooster Pod along the upper back panel. Assos have thought of everything.
In order to extract the very best performance from yourself, you’ll want the best kit. And when it comes to slippery cycling jerseys, the EQUIPE RS Summer Jersey Prof Edition can certainly rank up amongst the best. The jersey has had every detail scrutinised and examined to optimise both fit and performance, benefiting you when it comes riding hard and fast in training and racing. The aeroFit is extremely close-fitting, and while it may feel restrictive off the bike, it really comes into its own when the pressure is on and you're pushing the power through the pedals. Functional Fabrics After the fit, we come to functional fabrics. First comes the technical miniCheck Tex fabric. This 3D knit fabric is extremely elastic to give you the close aero fit needed to go fast without wasting your hard-earned watts. But not just that, it's highly breathable too, ensuring you don't get overwhelmed with sweat when your race and training efforts intensify. Meanwhile, the rear of the jersey sees Assos' featherweight Stabilizer textile deployed. This holds the jersey smoothly in place thanks to its limited vertical stretch, keeping airflow smooth and uninterrupted. Lastly, taking into account a low and aggressive riding position, the raw bonded sleeves, yoke and pockets ensure smooth transitions while remaining incredibly flexible. Practicality Built-in While the Equipe RS is, of course, speed-focused, Assos haven't overlooked more practical requirements. An ultralight bonded cam-lock zipper to the front gives you control of ventilation, while the triple ramp pocket design allows very easy access to all your essentials. A lightweight taped waist keeps bulk low, the fit smooth and it's more durable than previous versions. Proven time again in the frenetic world of the pro peloton, the Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Jersey Prof Edition has certainly made its mark on the World Tour. And now you can enjoy the same benefits, minus team logos but with an added subtle but stylish fade print.
A no-compromise race short, the EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S9 have premium features, such as Assos' A-Lock Engineering construction and muscle-wrapping butterfly panels to give shorts that fit beautifully and allow a smooth pedal stroke at all times. Type.443 textile is used to give a compressive fit, supporting hard-working muscles while remaining highly flexible too. Not only supportive, but it's highly breathable too, maintaining comfort when the racing gets serious or training efforts ramp up. Micro-adjusted shaping wraps the large muscles with compressive support in a standard leg length. Engineered comfort With their X-Frame construction, inherited from the EQUIPE RS line, the EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S9 offer an incredibly secure and comfortable fit. This technology prevents sagging, maintains the seat pad in a perfect position and keeps the fit locked in during bouts of intense cycling. Monofilament elastic used in the bib straps also keeps the weight low, provides a secure fit and dries incredibly quickly too. The ultralight leg grippers make use of compressive elastic bands and silicone microdot grippers, maintaining a secure fit that won't irritate. zeroPressure Waist technology zeroPressure Waist technology provides an impressively comfortable and flexible fit but one that remains securely in place without restriction or pinching. The waist system also features an upgraded Tech Sheen Mesh area, improving breathability. EQUIPE R S9 Seat Pad Packed with features, the EQUIPE R S9 Seat Pad is made for comfort on bike rides of any length. Thermoformed 9mm foam offers a smooth fit and both support and shock-absorbing comfort while also being breathable. The pad also makes use of Assos' 3D waffle construction, with three-layer, perforated foam giving excellent breathability and eliminating excess bulk. Lastly, goldenGate construction sees the insert anchored front and back, allowing the pad to move in harmony with your body movements rather than against them.
