New item Fall/Winter 2024
The ASSOS EQUIPE R Spring Fall Bib Shorts S11 are an all-new bib short platform for riding/training in the cool, wet, and challenging conditions of the transitional seasons. These bib shorts feature the warmest ASSOS Spring Fall textile yet, and its tight weave shields you from wind and road spray or light precipitation.
ASSOS CLIMACODE 2.3 SPRING/FALL - color code yellow
ASSOS Spring/Fall equipment is engineered comfort and performance for the cool days of early Fall and late Spring in Canada.
Temperature range guideline: +10C to +20C
Variables to consider are: weather conditions of the day, level of exercise activity and cold sensitivity
These new Spring Fall R series bib shorts are constructed with the same insulating textile used on the new P1 series of ASSOS arm/knee/leg Winter Warmers, an upgrade in warmth compared to the previous model. Though warmer on the legs and hips, the EQUIPE R omits the double-layer construction used on the crotch of its predecessor, which creates uniform thermoregulation throughout rather than lighter insulation on the legs and an over-insulated core. The new textile is also treated with an ecofriendly water-repellent finish, so road spray and light precipitation bead up and roll off instead of soaking through. These bib shorts include the new EQUIPE R S11 insert, which features updated shaping to better support the body in aggressive riding positions and ASSOS proprietary free-floating goldenGate 2.0 construction.
For challenging spring or fall conditions, pair with the versatile ASSOS P1 series knee/leg Winter Warmers to maintain comfort as conditions require.
TECHNOLOGY
FEATURED FABRICS
The RX Extreme textile is the most robust insulator from the RX family. A brushed, insulating warp-knit fabric with high breathability and a water-repellent treatment – suited for racing in light rain and wind with cool temperatures.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
ASSOS AEDP 11 racingFit is a second-skin, aerodynamic silhouette designed with WorldTour pro team feedback to envelope the body in 360-degree compression and stability. The raw-cut waist construction eliminates pressure while in aggressive riding positions.
ENGINEERING
- PILtec Plug-In: A lightweight, ultrabreathable textile band across the leg opening. The microdot silicone treatment is invisible from the outside but stabilizes fit and maintains grip while wet.
- Acqua Shield Tec: An eco-friendly, water-repellent treatment that causes water to bead up and roll off the textile surface, maintaining a dry microclimate underneath.
- X-Frame: An A-frame suspension that limits sag on the lower back, stabilizing the insert and main body panel during highintensity riding. Anchored across the shoulders by ASSOS lightest bib straps.
- Reflective Detail: A strip of reflectivity on the lower back angles to catch light and increase visibility in low-light conditions.
EQUIPE R S11
- Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9: Compressive foam materials in a breathable 9mm racing platform. Thermoformed shaping eliminates ridges and irritation.
- 3D Waffle: A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
- goldenGate 2.0: A free-floating construction that moves with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on the wings reduce friction throughout the pedal stroke.
