Made for the race-oriented cyclist, the ASSOS EQUIPE RS Bib Shorts S9 offer the best in comfort and performance. These shorts use A-Lock Engineering, an innovative bracing system that uses a combination of advanced textiles and technologies to keep the bib securely in place.

Incorporating just two panels, these shorts feature a primary butterfly panel that fully envelopes the legs and converges at the back to form our latest ergoBox structure. This design effectively holds the insert in place while providing a superior comfort fit on your legs using our unique Type.441 textile. This fabric was specifically developed for its hard-wearing yet silky comfortable properties.

Returning to the A-Lock Engineering, our unique rollBar design helps mimic a race car’s anti-sway bar by using the bib straps to keep the insert stabilised during cornering. Each strap connects into the seam just above the insert, ensuring it’s under tension at all times.

The bib straps have been redesigned with calibrated stretch for the best fit, while the rear section features a fold-over elastic material that forms an A-frame. This limits vertical stretch to add stability. In contrast, the front straps comprise of a more flexible, moisture-wicking material with an antibacterial carbon weave.

We've also focused on a single insert platform that evolves from our much-lauded Equipe Evo. This slimline, race-spec insert features superAir microShock foam with 3D waffle for comfort and kraterCooler system for increased airflow. We've reduced the footprint to shed additional weight and our patented horizontal stabilizer anchors the insert at the rear.

With the ASSOS EQUIPE RS Bib Shorts S9, you get unbeatable comfort and performance, packaged in a race-ready design.
