Quick info: NEW Spring/Summer 2023
9mm insert EQUIPE R S9
ASSOS CLIMACODE 1.3 SUMMER - color code white
The ASSOS EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S9 are entry point bibshorts into the ASSOS RS Race Series, EQUIPE R combines technology from the EQUIPE RS system with simplified, everyday general use utility.
The EQUIPE R is built with ASSOS signature A-Lock Engineering construction that adapts technologies from the WorldTour-proven EQUIPE RS design. It maintains racingFit stability with a muscle-wrapping butterfly panel and the new Type.443 textile, which compresses and breathes like the EQUIPE RS, but with a deeper black color. Monofilament elastic in the bib straps reduces weight and dries faster than dual-layer models and the shorts are equipped with the EQUIPE R S9 9mm race level insert.
TECHNOLOGY
FEATURED FABRICS
Type.443 is a compressive, abrasion-resistant warp-knit similar in weight and compressive stability to the Type.441 in our EQUIPE RS line. Ultrabreathable and ultra-supportive with a deeper, richer black color and UPF 50+.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
racingFit is a second-skin, aerodynamic silhouette designed with WorldTour feedback and proven with WorldTour results. Micro-adjusted shaping wraps the large muscles with compressive support in a standard leg length.
ENGINEERING
zeroPressure Waist: Highly elastic waist construction that conforms with a second-skin fit while reducing pressure across the abdomen and sensitive areas.
Ultralight Leg Grippers: Lighter than anything outside of the Racing Series, with compressive elastic bands and the security of silicone microdot grip.
X-Frame: A-frame suspension inherited from the EQUIPE RS line. Limits sag on the lower back, stabilizing the insert and main body panel during high-intensity riding.
EQUIPE R S9 Insert:
Shock-Absorb Damping Mono9:Compressive foam materials in a breathable 9mm racing platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.
3D Waffle: A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
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.
