Assos Spring Fall Leg WarmersThe Assos Spring Fall Leg Warmers offer the perfect balance of warmth, moisture management and UV protection. Their lightest leg warmers yet, they're ideal for cooler conditions throughout the year.

Assos GT Gloves C2Coming in at some 25% lighter than previous iterations of Assos summer gloves and with a grippy padded palm, the GT Gloves C2 are made for the heat and high mileages of summer. With the hands a vital touchpoint on your bike, the GT Gloves C2 have a focus on 3 key elements - cooling, durability, and increased comfort - leaving you to enjoy your ride without distractions. Starting with cooling, Assos make use of an open-mesh to the back of the GTs. This allows for both excellent breathability and for cooling airflow to the hands. With less moisture lingering on the skin, this reduces the chance of internal friction and at the same time ensures a sweat-free grip of the hoods. The streamlined slip-on construction also removes unnecessary bulk from the wrist, improving comfort and breathability. Over the course of a long ride, the VibeProof Palm provides extra comfort. Carefully positioned at pressure points on the palm, the padding soaks up the chatter from rougher road surfaces, improving both comfort and control. The microfibre palm itself also gives a reassuring grip and offers excellent durability. For long and hot summer endurance rides, the GT Gloves C2 are a natural choice.FeaturesMaterials: 77% Polyamide, 23% ElastaneStreamlined slip-on constructionOpen-mesh breathable backVibeProof Palm: Strategically arrayed padding eats up road noise and gravel chatterSweat Sponge: A soft surface on the thumb aids in wicking moisture from the face and browBuy Assos Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
