Assos Equipe RSR S9 Targa (Superleger) Bib Short - Black

Size

A foundational redesign of Assos' fastest bib shorts. The EQUIPE RSR S9 TARGA pushes second-skin aerodynamics, hyperlight construction, and race-tuned engineering beyond even WorldTour standards.

Assos saw an opportunity to increase comfort and decrease weight without impacting compressive performance or aerodynamic properties. Targeted increases in stretch and support let us further dial the aerodynamics and compression while reducing pressure on sensitive areas, and the new construction dries faster, limiting perspiration’s ability to add weight by soaking into the textiles.

Woven Kompressor type.701 fabric is unique to the EQUIPE RSR S9 Bib shorts. Compressive support, friction free comfort, abrasion resistance, and UPF50+ protection and odour resistance keep you safe, cool and fresh. Ossidia inserts provide targeted stretch in sensitive areas, to provide second skin fit without sacrificing comfort.

Slightly longer leg than Mille GT and Equipe RS, and aeroFit maximises speed combining to produce the fiastest silhouette in Assos' catalogue.

The T bar straps are seam free and anchor the insert in place while seated, standing and cornering.

Assos has finished the shorts with a raw-cut, tape-reinforced edge for a smoother transition at the end of the leg. Beneath that raw-cut edge is a silicon gripper. Instead of a silicon strip, Assos has opted for its Skingrip silicon dots that wrap almost entirely around the leg.

Look no further for the ultimate in fit and performance for your next long ride.

lovely material

great colour, lovely material, well made and accurate to size - I am usually a size 10 but like my tops a little loose, so chose a medium - good fit for me.

Hassle feee purchase and quick delivery

Winter glove

These gloves work in the wet and the dry and down to very cold temperatures. Also wash and wear really well, come up like new each time.

Winter gloves

So warm and toasty. The size was perfect. I haven't worn them in the rain but hoping they are waterproof as advertised.

Decent, but far from great

Let's start with the good - the fabric is an excellent blend of stretch merino that feels dense and warm without overheating, the conductive fingertips for forefinger and thumb actually work (unlike a lot of other brands), and the palm grip is great both on and off the bike.

Now the bad - the glove pattern/cut leaves too much fabric around the lower palm/wrist area so you never get a nice form-fit. This extends to the wrist which is too large and consequently allows air to get in (not what you want from a winter cycling gloves). Conversely, the fingers are quite tight, where you need to individually work each of the glove fingers on. Lastly, the piece of grip rubber placed at the thumb/forefinger webbing is totally unnecessary and in fact only makes for an uncomfortable grip on the handles as it gets pushed into the base of your thumb. Definitely seems like a band-aid solution and needs more thought.

Overall, I'm happy with these gloves despite the design flaws. Price is great for merino full finger cycling gloves and they seem built to last. If you can grab them on sale, go for it.
