Assos Women's DYORA RS Winter Cycling JacketThe ultimate cold-weather layer, the Assos Women's DYORA RS Winter Cycling Jacket balances insulation, moisture-management, flexibility and low-bulk to great effect. Whether a pro-rider or dedicated amateur this is a winter essential. The harder you ride, the more the DYORA RS Winter Cycling Jacket excels. The aim of the Assos design team has been to create a winter jacket that 'activates' when you're training and racing at higher intensities. It harmoniously balances insulation and temperature regulation, keeping you perfectly comfortable on all-day endurance rides through to short and intense interval sessions.Engineered ExcellenceIts incredible performance is made possible thanks to the development of a lightweight softshell material called SPHERE. Replacing Assos' renowned Stratagon, it offers waterproof and flexibility with outstanding moisture control perfectly suited to cycling hard. Inside, across the chest are several thin layers of this SPHERE. This not only protects the chest from cold it's also quick to move sweat off the skin so you don't feel a chill. To the outside, 3-Layer SPHERE light provides a windproof and water-resistant barrier as you face into the weather. A thicker and more insulating version of the same 3-layer material is used across the upper back and forearms for added 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 DYORA RS Winter Cycling 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. Assos have thought of everything.Features:Materials: 23% Polyester, 41% Polyamide, 22% Elastane, 14% PolypropyleneSPHERE Light front panel - a patented 3L windproof, waterproof, and breathable material - Breathability: MVP 30,000g/m2/24h - Water Column 10,000mmInnermost layer in SHERE Light - bi-stretch circular knit adds light insulation and helps pull moisture away from the layers belowSPHERE Medium - Used for the upper back and forearms - thickest version ofSPHERE - Breathability: MVP 20,000g/m2/24h - Water Column 10,000mmZigZaggy Foam - upper sleeves are made with this 3L warp-knit, wind-blocking fabric, which features a foam-like core and brushed fleece interiorOSMOS Heavy - warp-knit is used along the back panel.

Setting the Pace for Comfort This isn't a jacket for taking it easy in. Rather, the aerodynamically efficient Women's DYORA RS Winter Cycling 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.

The top rated winter jacket, bringing warmth, breathability and a high level of rain protection along with a soft, comfortable fit. his jacket leads the way in demonstrating how a winter jacket should perform. Rain or Shine engineering makes this our best jacket ever for dry conditions while also providing significant rain protection GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150 fabric for wind protection with high breathability and effective rain protection Reduced seaming with seam sealing on shoulders reduces chances for water to enter through stitching Double-layer Alpha construction separates insulating layer from wind/water barrier to let you better regulate ventilation Water-resistant YKK® Vislon® zipper slides easily for better regulation of airflow Raw-edge waist with silicone gripper lies flat and seals out wind Double-layer cuff integrates with glove to prevent cold wind or water from entering at wrist Stretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types Back ventilation 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes Zippered secure side pocket for valuables. Cyclingnews.com says this jacket is sets an all-new benchmark in what a winter cycling jacket can achieve and it's exactly what we think the perfect winter jacket should be. We started with a list of things we didn't like about the current jackets and set out to solve them—and in the process made our best jacket ever. The first issue to resolve related to moisture management. Even the best of the currently available fabrics provide a good level of breathability but can't keep up with the sweat generated during high-intensity riding. So we invented a double-layer construction that allows you to open an outer wind-protection layer while keeping the insulation layer closed and thereby allowing airflow inside the jacket to evacuate moisture while avoiding direct contact with the skin. On a long climb we'll completely open the outer layer to allow moisture to escape, and when we start the descent we close the outer layer and are completely dry inside. It works so well that sometimes it feels like magic. New for this year is a softer, warmer 3D insulation-layer fabric that provides better warmth, moisture management and fit. Next we focused on the openings: neck, waist and, most of all, wrists. The neck comes up high and is shaped to move with you, whether you're standing or in an aero position being a January hero and attacking your mates. For the waist we've created a stretch layer with a silicone bead that lies flat and completely seals out wind without bunching or riding up. New for this year is a brand-new double-layer wrist opening with an inner layer to go under your glove that seals tight to your wrist, and an outer layer that goes over your glove so that any rain will roll down the outside of the glove and not end up inside. Of course, the ultimate jacket will also hold up well in wet conditions, so we used GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabric along with waterproof seam taping on critical seams around the shoulder. Other seams are hidden out of direct water flow, and the water-repellent treatment on the fabric is sufficient to prevent most moisture from entering. We call it essentially waterproof, using our own subjective judgment to find a balance between water protection, breathability and comfort. It doesn't mean that no drop will ever come in, but we do longish rides in real rain and stay completely dry. All these features make it a favorite of our staff and most of our ambassadors, and the most versatile performance jacket for cold-weather training we've ever created.
