The comfort of your favourite Assos cycling shorts but with added warmth from brushed back fabrics, the Assos Equipe RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9 bridge the gap between summer and winter cycling kit.

There comes a point in the year when the seasons begin to transition and summer shorts are no longer warm enough and yet pulling on full winter tights isn't quite necessary. Enter the Equipe RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9 - cosy shorts for training and racing in the cooler conditions of autumn and spring.

Warmth and Breathability in Harmony

The thigh panels are made from Assos' heavyweight brushed-back Osmos Heavy material - super-soft against the skin, insulating and yet highly breathable, it ensures a perfect temperature whether it's a hard early-season race effort or a steady autumnal spin. The warp-knit outer provides support and compression of the muscles, encouraging circulation to the legs, vital to keep body warmth high. To the front, around your more sensitive areas, you'll also be happy to find windproof Sphere Ultra textile in a double-layer, locking out icy blasts while still maintaining breathability for comfort. 

Race Proven Comfort

Keeping the shorts comfortably in place is Assos' A-Lock Engineering bib design, featuring rollBar braces, creating a short that's perfectly stabilised and holding the seat insert in the correct position at all times. Speaking of the seat pad, this is Assos' EQUIPE RS Insert. In order to boost warmth, the ventilation holes from the summer version are removed but everything else remains - the superAir microShock foam, 3D waffle and goldenGate technology - making for incredible comfort on the saddle.

Wear them on their own or pair up with knee and leg warmers, the Equipe RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9 will see you comfortably through the cooler months of your cycling year. 

About the Assos brand

Assos are one of the world's pioneers and specialists in producing high quality cycling clothes and accessories. They are located in a region of Switzerland that has maintained a long standing tradition in first class textile engineering. In the 1970's, Toni Maier-Moussa, founder and chairman of Assos accidently invented lycra cycling clothing, whilst trying to create the ultimate bicycle. During the wind tunnel tests of the first ever carbon-fibre bike, Toni inadvertently found that lycra downhill ski racing suits had much less drag than the woolen-knitted cycling clothes of the time. To this day Assos firmly believe in total product competence, delivering optimum function and comfort, by researching and making its cycling clothing and accessories from the very best materials.
