ASSOS EQUIPE R HABU Winter Bib Tights S11 blackSeries

An update to ASSOS recently returned HABU winter line, the new EQUIPE R bib tights are updated for lighter weight and less pedaling restriction, saving 50g in size medium with more effective textile deployment and targeted removal of material around the knee area. Stormproof paneling layered across the thermal crotch panel protects the core from wind and road spray, and the water-repellent finish of the thermal body textiles sheds precipitation. The new EQUIPE R S11 insert incorporates the friction-eliminating features of the SCHTRADIVARI S11’s insert, but without the added ventilation of the summer version.

FEATURED FABRICS

AIRBLOCK.1098 is the lightest of AIRBLOCK softshell membrane family. Here, it provides an additional layer of breathable, stormproof protection over the core. The RX Extreme textile is our most robust insulator from the RX family. It’s a brushed, insulating warp-knit fabric with high breathability and a water-repellent treatment, providing warmth and protection over the knees comparable to two layers of less insulating textiles.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT

AEPD 11 racingFit is a second-skin, aerodynamic silhouette designed with WorldTour feedback to envelope the body in 360-degree compression and stability. The Louvre Tec design pattern specially shapes the knee to eliminate friction while pedaling.

ENGINEERING

Acqua Shield Tec: A water-repellent treatment that causes water to bead up and roll off the textile surface, maintaining a dry microclimate underneath.

ENGINEERING

X-Frame: An A-frame suspension that limits sag on the lower back, stabilizing the insert and main body panel during high-intensity riding. Anchored across the shoulders by our lightest bib straps.

ENGINEERING

Reflective: Reflective details on the lower legs catch light throughout the pedal stroke, increasing rider visibility in low-light conditions.

EQUIPE R S11

Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9: Compressive foam materials in a single-layer 9mm racing platform that minimizes volume and weight. Thermoformed shaping eliminates ridges and irritation.

EQUIPE R S11

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

EQUIPE R S11

goldenGate 2.0: A free-floating construction that moves with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on the wings reduce friction throughout the pedal stroke.
