While it may seem easy to make waist cycling shorts, the absence of bib straps for support can cause issues, with lesser shorts slipping, pinching and constricting. Assos have worked hard to engineer out those issues, with the Women's UMA GT Half Shorts C2 (short) giving a beautifully secure and comfortable fit. It's at the waist that this perfect fit is optimised. The forgiving zeroPressure design keeps the shorts firmly in place but not at the expense of comfort or flexibility. When you're breathing deeply during harder efforts and adopting low riding positions this makes all the difference. You'll also find a mesh waistband extending upwards, ensuring there are no revealing gaps between your shorts and jersey. Endurance Fit and Feel With a focus on long training rides, endurance events, indoor training, and everyday cycling comfort, Assos chose to use their Type.429 fabric for the UMA GTs. This highly functional fabric delivers a snug flexible fit to ensure you slip through the air with ease. It's also highly breathable, perfect for high summer rides and durable to resist the abuse of countless kilometres on the saddle. And with light compression, helps push back fatigue as your rides get longer, matching the longer days of summer. Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) Regular Fit Finding the perfect harmony of long-ride comfort and smooth, flexible fit, the Assos AEPD Regular Fit is based upon Assos' race models but it's more accommodating of different shapes and sizes. The comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 3.5mm in depth and using LYCRA® with woven silicone grip, they provide a secure non-bulge fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from shorts to skin. Women's UMA GT C2 Insert With 9mm of cushioning and the 'floating' design of goldenGate location to move the pad with your body not against you, the Women's UMA GT C2 pad is intensely comfortable, supportive and shock-absorbing. Compressive foam layers provide endurance-focused support on the saddle. The 3D Waffle design uses a three-layer construction, with perforated foams to enhance breathability and airflow. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation while the odour-resistant top sheet maintains freshness.
If the weather is too mild for full winter kit but too chilly for shorts, the UMA GT Spring Fall Half Knickers C2 bridge the gap perfectly. It’s just what you need for much of your spring or autumn cycling. RX EVO Warmth In order to get the ideal balance of warmth, breathability and flexibility, Assos deploy their RX EVO textile. This cosy mid-weight material offers just the right level of insulation for spring and autumn rides. The brushed inner face traps body heat while excellent breathability prevents sweat build-up during harder riding. A water-repellent treatment also adds protection against damp roads and drizzle. Shaped for Comfort The women’s specific fit has been designed to offer comfort for rides of any length. The Assos regularFit strikes the perfect balance between streamlined performance and all-day comfort. Ultralight leg grippers see elastic woven through the leg bands, creating a secure hold minus restriction. Around the waist and hips, Assos have created their hipClick design. This combines elastic and mesh layers that give excellent comfort and full coverage. It also eliminates pressure and restriction while stabilising the knickers’ body panels and locks the seat insert in place. UMA GT C2 Seat Pad The women’s specific UMA GT C2 Seat Pad offers shock-absorbing support when you’re on the saddle. 9mm of compressive foam layers keep you comfortable on endurance rides, easing pressure across the sit bones. Thermoformed shaping also reduces irritation. You’ll also benefit from the 3D Waffle design. This 3-layer perforated foam offers increased breathability and reduced weight too. Lastly, the goldenGate stitching pattern holds the insert at the front and the back but allows it to float too, moving with your body rather than against it.
Come the warmth of summer, you may still prefer some extra length in your cycling legwear. The Women’s UMA GT Summer Half Knickers C2 are just the ticket, delivering superb comfort in warmer weather. Flexible and Lightweight Comfort In order to give you tights that are highly flexible and deal with perspiration quickly, Assos turn to their technical Type.429 textile. Not only quick-wicking and breathable, but it also offers excellent muscle compression and elasticity for unrestricted pedalling. Panels of Tech Sheen Mesh also wrap the legs down to the upper calves in compressive breathability.

Assos' primary aim with the TRAIL TACTICA Liner Shorts HP T3 has been to engineer a liner short that's incredibly light, impressively breathable and yet retains off-road-ready durability and protection. This is a liner you'll love to wear with your favourite over-shorts. Superlight Performance The Tactica liners make use of incredibly light materials to keep you cool and fresh during intense off-road rides. This includes a mesh with hydrophilic treatment that speeds moisture evaporation, keeping you cooler for longer. At the waist, the zeroPressure construction does what it says, offering a soft and flexible fit that keeps the shorts in place without undue pressure. A high degree of breathability keeps you feeling fresh during high-intensity XC and gravel racing. More Protection If you find yourself sliding out on loose trails and gravel, the large ImpactorTec T3 hip pad lessens the chance of painful gravel rash. With a jersey-soft inner face and increased cooling, there's no compromise to comfort either. Off-Road HP T3 Seat Pad Using 9mm thick shock-absorbing foam layers, the Off-Road HP T3 Seat Pad is made specifically for the more upright riding position associated with gravel and mountain bikes and soaks up trail chatter. Thermoformed shapes also reduce ridges and irritation when pedalling while allowing freedom of movement, ideal when tackling sinewy singletrack. The T3 also sees familiar Assos pad features deployed to deliver airy comfort. The goldenGate 2.0 lets the pad move with your body rather than in opposition to it. 3D Waffle, a 3-layer perforated foam, reduces weight while optimising breathability. And kratercooler technology sees perforation across the leading edge, drawing air across the pad and keeping you cooler and drier.
