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. S9 RS Equipe Seat PadThe 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. A combination of 3D three-layer perforated waffle foam and superAir microShock memory foam core work together to give support to your sit bones and quick adaption to your body position whenever you shift weight or move in and out of the saddle.Features:Materials: 80% Polyamide, 20% ElastaneA-Lock Engineering technologyRollBar Bib strap stabilization30% Seam Reduction reduces weight enhances comfortErgoBox construction stabilizes seat padZeroWaist raw cut waist transitionButterfly pattern wraps lower legs and backUltralight leg grippers free of silicone but maintains perfect holdCarbon Xbib multi-fabric construction for unrivalled comfort and supportType.441 fabric - 40-gauge warp knit, developed specificallyfor compression hold and silky comfort -UPF 50+, moisture-wickingEQUIPE RS Insert - Race-spec elastic interface insert in 3D basalt colourway, with kraterCooler ventilationBuy Assos Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Giro Synthe II Helmet (MIPS)The Giro Synthe II Helmet (MIPS) packs in the safety features to keep you safer on your ride. And it's comfortable and streamlined too, ensuring every time you hop on your bike, you'll barely notice it's there. Always a favourite with cyclists who demand both comfort and performance, the Synthe design gets some tweaks to make it better than ever. The Synthe II Helmet (MIPS), is equipped with the MIPS® (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) brain protection system. This works alongside the In-Mould polycarbonate shell and Thermoformed SL Roll Cage™ to deliver superb levels of impact absorption and head protection in the event of a crash. MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) The Mips system is designed to provide added safety for helmets in many accidents. For certain impacts, the Mips system can reduce harmful rotational motion that might otherwise be transferred to the user’s head.Rotational motion is a common cause of concussions in oblique hits to the head. In a crash, the Mips system is designed to move slightly inside the helmet to help redirect forces away from the head.Fast and CoolIt's not all about protection though. You'll also be pleased to find the Synthe II is fast and fresh. The compact design slips through the air with minimal drag, ensuring very little wasted watts as you pick up speed. And not just that, a total of 19 Wind Tunnel™ vents and carefully designed internal channels create a rush of air over the head, keeping you feeling great as you warm up. X-Static® anti-microbial padding is also there to keep you feeling comfortable. Quick to wick away sweat before discomfort sets in, it's also great at preventing bacterial build-up that can cause an itchy head. Cool, dry and fresh. Perfect. Roc Loc® 5 Air MIPSInside the Synthe II is the light and airy Roc-Loc® 5 Air fit system. This is the industry benchmark in comfort, stability, adjustability and weight savings. In addition to enhancing fit and comfort, Roc Loc® 5 allows you to easily custom tune the fit tension and the fore-aft tilt of the helmet in seconds using a single hand. And it’s lighter than comparable systems too, making it the ultimate in skull-hugging luxury.Features:Integrated MIPS® brain protection systemFeatherweight webbing with Slimline™ buckleX-Static® anti-microbial paddingIn-Mould polycarbonate shell with EPS linerThermoformed SL Roll Cage™ reinforcementRoc Loc® 5 Air MIPS19 Wind Tunnel™ vents with internal channellingCE EN1078Weight: 250g (size medium CE)Shop all MIPS helmets - Click hereBuy Giro Helmets from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
