Assos has revamped its top - speed bib shorts. The Assos S9 Targa Equipe RSR Bib Shorts take second - skin aerodynamics, ultra - light build, and race - optimized engineering to new heights, surpassing even WorldTour benchmarks. We found a way to boost comfort and cut down weight without sacrificing compression performance or aerodynamic features. By increasing stretch and support in targeted areas, we've fine - tuned aerodynamics and compression while easing pressure on sensitive spots. The new construction dries quickly, preventing sweat from adding weight by soaking into the fabric. Specification: Composition is 68% PA, 26% EA, 6% PL. It took six years of development and testing in tough conditions. The A - Lock engineering creates a stabilizing structure with innovative details around the shorts. The Type.701kompressor fabric is extremely light, offers excellent compression, and fits smoothly on the skin for a frictionless, silky feel. The box panel in the back provides more stability for the pad insert. The Carbon Xbib is a single - piece bib strap with adjustable elasticity. The Butterfly Pattern single fabric panel gives consistent support and keeps the weight low. The rAir microshock foam in the pad insert offers shock - absorbing comfort with its ultralight open - cell foam. The reinforced central stitch (Horizontal Stabilizer) secures the pad insert. The Gate technology allows free movement with less friction due to the stitch - free side panel design.





Using these Assos bib shorts is straightforward. Just put them on like regular cycling shorts. They're designed to fit snugly but comfortably, so you don't need to worry about adjusting them during your ride. When it comes to care, it's best to wash them in cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents as they can damage the fabric and affect its performance. After washing, let them air dry; don't put them in the dryer as high heat can shrink or distort the material. Store them in a cool, dry place. Remember, these shorts are high - performance gear, so treat them well to keep them in top shape for your next cycling adventure.
