 Bib shorts totally in tune with your running or riding form

Six years of technology developments and ASSOS' most advanced race insert to date have been brought together to map out the new ground being trodden by the Equipe RS Bib Shorts S9.

The result is unmatched stability and comfort in all your most demanding and speed-focused endeavours.

ASSOS believes that the S9 marks the future of race-tuned comfort, built on an entirely new, re-engineered platform. With years of testing and feedback from riders at the highest level of the sport, ASSOS firmly believes that the most advanced insert technology is only as good as the framework that supports it. 

So it has given careful thought to the support you need for hard cornering, into-out-of-saddle pedalling, and hours of body repositioning that greatly impact your shorts and the way its insert functions, and ultimately the comfort both can provide.

Its answer to these demands is A-Lock Engineering, a new bracing system comprising proprietary textiles and technologies working together to keep the shorts and insert securely  in place.

The S9 generation incorporates just two panels, with a primary “butterfly” panel which fully encase the legs and meet in the rear to form the new 'ergoBox' structure. This design effectively holds the insert in place and gives you an ultra-comfortable wrap on your legs, where you'll also feel the benefits of the Type.441 textile, developed specifically for compressive hold and silky comfort.

To this, ASSOS has added its unique rollBar, which mimics a racing car’s anti-sway bar - the bib straps stabilise the insert as your weight transfers from left to right while cornering. Each strap is sewn into the seam directly above the insert, ensuring that it is kept under pre-loaded tension at all times.

The bib straps have also been redesigned using calibrated stretch throughout, with the rear section using a single section of elastic material, folded over on itself, forming an A-frame in the back. It delivers controlled vertical stretch in order to add further stability. In the front, the straps are made of a more flexible material, with an antibacterial carbon weave, to wick moisture and lay flat.

The designers also focused on a single insert platform, based on its proven Equipe Evo, which gave them the freedom to reassess what is most crucial to a streamlined, race-spec insert. They reduced the overall footprint to shed additional weight, employed superAir microShock foam with 3D waffle, incorporated their unique kraterCooler system to increase airflow up front, and took additional measures to anchor the insert at the rear with our patented horizontal stabiliwer. The result is ASSOS' signature comfort in its most stable form yet.

 

 

Key Features

A-Lock Engineering: S9 racingFit system comprising new textiles and technologies working in harmony to stabilize the shorts and secure the insert in place.

Butterfly Pattern: The primary textile panel fully wrapping the lower back and legs, coming together in the rear. Fewer seams leads to a more uniform hold, less weight, and greater comfort.

Type.441: A patented 40-guage warp knit, developed specifically for compressive hold and silky comfort. 200g/m2, UPF 50+, moisture wicking (idroFil fastDry), iceColor, odorControl, and extremely durable.

rollBar: A patented bracing design that mimics a race car’s anti-sway bar by using the bib straps to stabilize the insert and lock it in place as your weight transfers from left to right while cornering.

ergoBox: A square pattern construction that effectively frames the insert in the back, boxing it in for added stability.

Carbon Xbib: A single section of elastic material—folded over on itself—forming a supportive A-frame that delivers limited vertical stretch in the rear. Above the “X” junction, a more flexible material is employed, incorporating an antibacterial carbon weave, to wick moisture and lay flat in the front.

zeroWaist: A raw-cut, tape-reinforced edge for the smoothest transition possible between the body and fabric panel. More comfort with less pressure.

Ultralight Leg Grippers: A light silicon treatment woven into the leg bands, which reduces fabric bulk and secures the shorts in place without any excessive pressure.

30% Seam Reduction: Flatter seams throughout, with fewer overall, translates to more comfort and lower overall weight (180g).

mod.Dep S9 Basalt: An antibacterial microfibre booster top sheet in 3D basalt colorway. Pays homage to the lava stone that gives us strength, stability, and courage.

superAir microShock foam: A lightweight open cell foam with a shock absorbing composition that returns to its original position, filling the gap every time pedaling position is changed in the saddle through the shift of weight.

3D waffle: A patented, three-layer perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.

Surface Reduction Design: The footprint of the insert has been reduced from the previous Equipe Evo pattern to shed extra grams.

goldenGate: A patented technology that interrupts the stitching along both of the insert’s side panels, allowing a more three-dimensional freedom of movement in this sensitive, rotational area.

Horizontal Stabiliser: A patented central stitch that secures the rear of the insert to the outer textile, eliminating shifting while pedaling out of the saddle.

kraterCooler: A system of small holes in the front of the insert that increases airflow so that your sensitive areas are kept cooler.
