Assos EQUIPE RS Spring/Fall Cycling Bib Tights S9Be it a spring interval session or a steady autumn ride, the Assos EQUIPE RS Spring/Fall Cycling Bib Tights S9 offer an ideal blend of insulation and moisture control for comfort in cooler weather. When weather conditions don't call for heavier-weight winter tights but then again shorts and leg warmers aren't quite protective enough, that's when the EQUIPE RS Spring/Fall Cycling Bib Tights S9 come in. With targetted insulation, outstanding flexibility and excellent moisture management, they bring comfort to those transitional seasons that lead into and out of winter. Warmth and Breathability in HarmonyIn order to keep you insulated from cool temperatures, Assos use fabrics from their fleece-backed OSMOS family. For the most part, they use OSMOS light, a low-volume insulator that traps warmth while also offering excellent breathability to regulate temperature. Across the abdomen and crotch panels, areas most susceptible to feel the cold, Assos apply an additional layer of their heavier OSMOS Medium. This twinDeck construction provides extra windproof protection and insulation and yet remains highly breathable too. Compression. Comfort.The Spring/Fall bib tights are not only warm but they provide excellent compression and support of your muscles. The use of double-layer fabrics provides a compressive structure, firmly wrapping your large muscle groups to encourage positive circulation and uniform warmth throughout. Keeping the tights comfortably in place is Assos' A-Lock Engineering bib design, featuring rollBar braces and ergoBox construction, creating a tight that's perfectly stabilised and holding the seat insert in the correct position at all times. At the waist and hems, a raw-cut, stitch-free finish gives a smooth and flexible fit, ensuring you enjoy the utmost comfort and a smooth transition between tights and additional layers. Assos EQUIPE RS InsertSupport and comfort on the saddle are provided by the EQUIPE RS Insert. In order to boost warmth, the ventilation holes from the summer version are removed but everything else remains just the same.The pad makes use of superAir microShock foam in a 3D waffle design. The shock-absorbing SuperAir foam is lightweight and quick to return to its original form, filling gaps each time you shift weight and change position on the saddle. The waffle design meanwhile, sees the use of three-layer perforated foam to increases breathability and reduce bulk. And with goldenGate technology, the unique design allows a more natural irritation-free movement when pedalling.

Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Bib Shorts S9 WerksteamThe Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Bib Shorts S9 Werksteam benefit from Assos' experience of clothing World Tour professional riders. With such demands placed on the kit by pro riders, this has pushed Assos' engineering team to create their finest bib shorts yet, with incredible muscle support, innovative construction and class-leading comfort.A-Lock EngineeringAt the heart of the S9 bib shorts is Assos' A-Lock Engineering. Using a combination of new construction methods and materials, Assos' engineers have managed to create a short where the seat insert remains perfectly positioned. They start with Type.441 textile, a silky smooth fabric which boasts incredible moisture management, anti-odour and long term durability - all-in-all, a perfect cycling fabric. Butterfly EngineeringAn innovative panel design creates an incredibly stable platform for the seat insert. Where their S7 shorts use four panels, the S9s reduce this to just two, lessening bulk, reducing seams and hence increasing comfort. The two panels form a unique 'butterfly' shape, wrapping around the legs snugly to form what Assos have named their ergoBox structure. It is this which keeps the seat insert perfectly positioned, whether you're in the saddle, out of the saddle, sprinting or climbing. rollBar Bib DesignAssos have also completely redesigned the bib straps on the S9. Just like an anti-sway bar on a car, the new rollBar design provides stability. The straps pass over the rear of the shorts and attach directly into the same seam as the seat insert, maintaining the perfect degree of tension as you transfer weight in and out of the saddle. The bib straps themselves are made with highly elastic materials, a single Y-frame piece in the back creating the ideal level of support for the shorts while exerting minimal pressure. Meanwhile, the front of the shorts uses an antibacterial carbon weave, wicking away moisture incredibly quickly for intense comfort. These are bib shorts you'll barely realise are there.

A super-soft antibacterial microfibre offers a luxurious feel against the skin while kraterCooler holes ensure excellent ventilation, preventing sweat build-up and promoting freshness.

The S9 platform of cycling shorts have proved themselves to be at the cutting edge of cycling comfort and performance for even the most demanding of riders. And these EQUIPE RS Summer Bib Shorts S9 Werksteam continue to offer the very same incredible muscles support and flexibility as you dance on the pedals. Unrivalled stability always keeps the seat pads in the right place too. And they’re finished with stealthy Assos Werksteam graphics. A-Lock Engineering A-Lock engineering is all about creating shorts with incredible stability and a seat insert that is always perfectly positioned. 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 part of the above A-Lock engineering system is a significant advance in the panel and construction design. While the class-leading S7 shorts used a four-panel construction, the S9 uses just two. The result of using just the two panels is a reduction in seams leading to less weight and even more comfort. The 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 rollBar bib strap system provides unrivalled support of the lower section of the shorts. It 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 RS Equipe Seat Pad The RS Equipe Seat Pad delivers the comfort you need to concentrate on your performance. A super-soft antibacterial microfibre offers a luxurious feel against the skin while kraterCooler holes ensure excellent ventilation, preventing sweat build-up and promoting freshness.
