Product description
ASSOS Equipe RS S9 Spring Fall Bib Shorts Men black series (black series)
It happens when we least expect it: The sting of cold air on our thighs, crotch, and glutes cuts into us on the road, distracting us from the race at hand. It marks the beginning of when our summer bibs are no longer warm enough, but we’re not quite ready to reach for our knickers. Enter the EQUIPE RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9—tuned for cool fall and spring racing conditions where shorts are still in order, but now with a dose of thigh-warming comfort and protection.
Based on the EQUIPE RS S9, these shorts include our A-Lock Engineering framework to brace the shorts and ensure they remain stabilized in the toughest racing environments. The shorts’ thigh panels are constructed with our brushed-back Osmos Heavy textile, which adds to this stable platform. This is the latest member to join our brushed family of fabrics, and its technical two-in-one composition provides us with several advantages.
The first is that the brushed interior is highly insulating, breathable, and super soft against our skin. The warp-knit outer acts as the “shell” of the shorts, further supporting your leg muscles with its compressive structure. Together, these two components of the textile create a nice compressive hold on our legs, encouraging positive circulation and uniform warmth throughout. Knowing that the wind-facing front panel takes the brunt of the elements, we applied our Sphere Ultra textile in our double-layer twinDeck construction to lock out the icy cold air around the crotch, while still remaining breathable.
For the insert, we incorporated the race-proven EQUIPE RS Insert—minus the kraterCooler ventilation holes—in our signature basalt colorway, equipped with superAir microShock foam, 3D waffle topsheet, along with the ASSOS-exclusive goldenGate technology and horizontal stabilizer in the rear.

Customer opinions
Uwe
Great workmanship
Translated from the German
To the original
Great workmanship, fit and feel.
The padding is not as convincing as expected, also very good but not as above average as the trousers overall

Perfect pants
Translated from the German
To the original
Assos simply makes perfect trousers.
This model is a bit firmer from the fabric and ideal in spring and autumn when it is not so hot.
