Quick info: 9mm insert UMA GT C2
Women specific design bib-free shorts that are engineered for utility and all-day comfort. Built for base miles and endurance epics, whether they’re on the road or the indoor trainer.
The absence of bib straps compounds the difficulty of dialing the perfect ride-tuned fit. To address that, ASSOS re-imagined the waistband with a stabilizing elastic layer that anchors the fit and an additional top band of mesh that extends coverage, independent of the elastic band, for comfort, moisture management and to eliminate gaps between shorts and jersey while in the saddle. The insert has been updated, reducing the footprint, boosting ventilation/cooling and adding an aesthetic touch with the light blue color. The new C2 insert has shock absorbing compressive foam layers in an 9mm endurance/comfort platform.
TECHNOLOGY
FEATURED FABRICS: Type.429 is flexible enough for a streamlined fit; breathable enough for the heights of summer; compressive enough to respond to and support your body; and substantial enough to resist the abuse of countless kilometers. A true daily workhorse.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT: C2 AEPD regularFit is based on our performance race models but tuned for comfort with a more accommodating waist. The Short variant has shorter legs than our UMA GT Bib Shorts. The Long variant is 5cm longer at the leg with a higher rise at the waist.
ENGINEERING: Ultralight Leg Grippers: 4.5cm elastane band naturally grips the thigh without silicone treatment to deliver a smooth, ultralight hold.
UMA GT C2:
Shock-Absorb Damping Mono: Compressive foam layers in an 9mm endurance platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.
goldenGate: The stitching pattern anchors the front and back but lets the insert’s body float, allowing the chamois to move with your body rather than against it.
3D Waffle: A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
