This mountain bike (MTB) rim comes equipped with a rock-solid aluminium build, which allows it to handle all the knocks and hits associated with day-long adventures and epic mountain rides. E Thirteen has also put this model through its CNC-machining process, which shaves off any unnecessary excess material while still maintaining maximum strength. This results in a superior strength to weight ratio, so you'll benefit from its fantastic stiffness and durability, without any weight penalty. Coming equipped with 28 spoke holes, this is a great choice for completing your next wheel build or for upgrading your existing stock rim. Sold individually.

Made from InfraRed Yarns with a high percentage of elastomer, the RSR Socks are designed for the rigours of both racing and hard training sessions. The elastomer provides compressive support across the foot and when blended with Lycra you'll enjoy a firm non-slip hold over the ankle and lower leg. A mesh arch support provides a boost to comfort and increases airflow to rapidly evaporate sweat leading to a cooler foot. With their seamless construction, you'll also enjoy friction-free comfort - these are socks you'll soon forget you're wearing.
Taking their outstanding RS and RSR Bib Shorts S9, Assos have made changes to fabrics to maintain the fabulous comfort but deliver extra helpings of ventilation alongside a reduction in weight. For hot summer days spent tackling alpine ascents or the demands of intense indoor training sessions, they're the perfect pick. Low on weight. High on Ventilation. With fewer seams used in their construction and the use of ultralight and highly breathable materials, you'll enjoy greater comfort and fresher, cooler leg muscles when the mercury rises. The full-wrap Butterfly panel is carried over from the standard S9s but here super-light Breezer Tex is deployed. This woven fabric has a mesh-like structure, allowing for enhanced airflow inwards and outstanding breathability outwards. Other front and rear panels are made in OSSIDIA warp-knit material. This provides a firm compressive hold of your key muscle groups, and thanks to excellent abrasion resistance ensure excellent durability on the saddle. Meanwhile, the bib straps use a lighter elastic, reducing weight and minimising sweat absorption. A-Lock Engineering Assos apply the same S9 A-Lock Engineering for these Superléger shorts. This compromises a two-panel design made into a 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 frictionless comfort no matter how intense your efforts. At the waist, raw-cut edges give a smooth transition between body and fabric, ensuring more comfort and less pressure. Raw-cut edges are also utilised at the leg openings, with minimal silicone grippers to keep your shorts in place with minimal weight and pressure. S9 SUNDECK Seat Insert An evolution of the EQUIPE RS insert, the S9 SUNDECK enjoys a reduction in weight for less bulk. Assos' whirlKrater system is also deployed. This uses strategically placed holes throughout the pad to boost airflow, creating a pad that minimises sweat absorption and boosts breathability. You'll also have the benefits of the standard RS pad. Shock-absorbing SuperAir microShock foam, in a 3D waffle design, is 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.
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. 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.
Rain doesn’t mean you have to resign yourself to an indoor training session. Grab your rain gear, including the RSR Thermo Rain Shell Gloves and you’re set for a great ride. This is an upgrade to the standard neoprene rain glove and features Assos’ waterShield system to keep the rain at bay and prevent cold winds from robbing warmth. The fit of the gloves lets you use them as the basis for a complete glove system, easily accommodating inner liners to suit the prevailing weather and temperatures. Use them as a shell in more moderate conditions and add Assos’ own Spring Fall, Winter, or ULTRAZ Winter Gloves to suit. Long cuffs provide a secure fit with jerseys and jackets while also sealing out the elements. You’ll also enjoy a secure grip thanks to the silicone grip across the palms. They’re gloves you can wear year-round when the weather is not on your side.
Made from 2-layer waterShield textile, the RSR Thermo Rain Socks add a waterproof and windproof protective layer between your regular cycling socks and your cycling shoes. For wet, milder days they are best used over summer socks and as temperatures fall switch to layering them over your winter-weight socks for extra warmth. The 20cm (8 inches) cuff is high enough to completely cover your base socks, ensuring full protection. Being worn inside your shoe also removes the risk of the crankarm and chainstay rub that overshoes often suffer from. These stormproof socks give you the benefits of overshoes but without the excess bulk
With the hands leading the way as you power through the air, it's an area ripe for making some aerodynamic gains. The RSR Speed Gloves have been created to complement the rest of the WorldTour proven EQUIPE RSR racing equipment and get you as many aero gains as possible. Those aero-gains begin with the use of the Windchannel Stripes material. This Lycra® blend warp knit gives an incredibly snug and smooth fit of the hands with little to no creasing. It's carefully deployed to reduce drag, particularly effective when you're on your aero-bar extensions during a time trial. Assos also give the gloves longer fingers and cuffs, further consolidating the aerodynamic second-skin fit. The bi-stretch property of Windchannel Stripe also offers light compression for greater comfort during high exertion efforts. The unpadded, high-grip palm offers a secure and natural feel on the bars while reducing weight. Lastly, raw-cut edges provide smooth transitions between glove and skin, enhancing streamlining and adding comfort.
With their development in the wind tunnel plus feedback and use by Pro riders in the WorldTour, you can be confident the RSR Speed Booties deliver meaningful gains when you're seeking a competitive advantage over your rivals. Starting at the ankles and cuffs, Assos use their aerodynamic Windchannel Stripes material. This Lycra® blend warp knit gives an incredibly snug and smooth fit with little to no creasing. As speeds increase it reduces drag to less than that of just your bare skin. The Zero Cuff design also gives an incredibly smooth fit, eliminating the ridge between shoe cover and skin. Over the front of the foot, you'll find EVA KANT material. The high-stretch characteristic of the fabric makes it ideal for aero applications, keeping the fit with your cycling shoes as snug as possible. And with wind- and waterproof protection, racing fast in inclement weather presents no problems.
