Welcome to the Top
After years of unwavering effort, Assos has finally managed to surpass the impossibly high bar set by its exceptional S7 line of apparel. Introducing the S9 line, featuring the finest bib shorts known to mankind.
S9 Line
The Assos name is synonymous with cycling apparel without equal, and nowhere is this penchant for excellence more obvious than in the Swiss brand’s legendary bib shorts. The arrival of the pinnacle S9 line promises to raise the bar even further. By refining the immaculate fit and retaining the focus on muscle-protecting compressive fabrics, Assos has honed its bib short formula to perfection. Take a closer look at the new class leaders.
Equipe RS Bib Shorts S9
From double centuries to town line sprints to race day jitters, the Equipe RS Bib Shorts S9 is built to rise to the occasion. Built with a proprietary Type.441 compressive fabric throughout the main panels, these impeccably fitted bibs are made even better with the addition of the new Equipe RS insert, while Assos veterans will celebrate the return of the insert’s chafe-free goldenGate construction. The final piece of the puzzle is Assos’s A Lock Engineering design philosophy. This approach is most visible at the aft of the short, where the dual attachment point for the bib straps ensure a close fit at the small of the back, and in turn, keeps the insert fixed in place under your hardest efforts. The result is a short with the ruggedness of a seasoned workhorse and the appetite for speed of a certified thoroughbred.
Equipe RSR Bib Shorts S9
As the race-day counterpart to the more versatile RS, the Equipe RSR Bib Shorts S9 packs the same unimpeachable fit as its sibling, as well as the stunning comfort, in a package that’s lighter weight and provides even more compression to shield battered quadriceps from the harmful effects of excess vibration after hours in the saddle. This impressive feat was made possible through the use of a lighter, more compressive Type.701kompressor fabric, which is exclusive to Assos. And the rest of the S9 suite of features is all here, like A Lock Engineering and the truly impressive Equipe RS insert. Consider these a specialist option for pinning on a number plate or tackling your longest, most difficult rides.
