Assos RSR SocksDesigned specifically for the demand of racing, the Assos RSR Socks keep your feet cool, fresh and supported when you're pushing out the watts - whether that's forging the breakaway, hammering the climbs or crushing the sprint.Made from InfraRed Yarns with a high percentage of elastomer, the RSR Socks are designed for the rigours of both racing and hard training sessions. The elastomer provides compressive support across the foot and when blended with Lycra you'll enjoy a firm non-slip hold over the ankle and lower leg. A mesh arch support provides a boost to comfort and increases airflow to rapidly evaporate sweat leading to a cooler foot. With their seamless construction, you'll also enjoy friction-free comfort - these are socks you'll soon forget you're wearing.Features:Materials: 55% Polyester, 36% Polypropylene, 9% ElastaneInfraRed Yarns: Smooth yarns with high elasticity provide firm compressive support (25mmHg/2nd class medical compression), enhanced circulation, and an ultrasoft feelMesh Arch: 360-degree ribbed band along the arch keeps the foot cool and supported within the shoe.Seamless Construction: Absent of exposed seams, this 240-needle construction provides a seamless wrap on the foot for the ultimate in friction-free comfortBuy Assos Cycle Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Assos XC SocksIf you get your thrills off the beaten track then the Assos XC socks will keep your feet fresh and comfortable as you flow along sinewy singletrack or hammer gravel trails.Keeping sweat build up minimised is the goal of the XC socks, less sweat equals greater comfort and less chance of chafing. This is achieved through the use of Meryl Skinlife, a highly functional fabric that rapidly wicks sweat away from the skin, guaranteeing freshness and comfort no matter how rough and tough the trails. Assos add Lycra to the mix and this gives a light compression over the foot and holds the socks comfortably in place.Features:Materials: 45% Polyamide, 35% Elastane, 20% PolypropyleneMeryl Skinlife quick-wicking performanceLycra - light compression fitBuy Assos Clothing from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
Assos EQUIPE RSR Cycling Bib Shorts Superléger S9Created for the demands of high temperatures and high-level efforts, the Assos EQUIPE RSR Cycling Bib Shorts Superléger S9 excel when you're riding both intense indoor training sessions and during the heat of summer riding outdoors.The EQUIPE RSR Cycling Bib Shorts Superléger S9 use the platform of the standard RS and RSR Bib Shorts S9. But they've been re-engineered to boost hot-weather comfort via a lower weight, just 120grams, and enhanced ventilation. Be it an indoor race or a scorching day ascending Alpine climbs, they're the ideal choice. Low on weight. High on Ventilation.Cooler and fresher legs are made possible thanks to the application of super-light Breezer Tex. This material is deployed for the full-wrap Butterfly panel across legs and hips. This woven fabric has a mesh-like structure, enhancing the airflow to your legs while also allowing your skin to breathe. Meanwhile, all other panels use OSSIDIA warp-knit material. With a compressive fit, you'll enjoy enhanced muscle support to find off fatigue. It also has excellent abrasion resistance, giving greater durability when you're on the saddle. Meanwhile, the bib straps use a lighter elastic, reducing weight and minimising sweat absorption. A-Lock EngineeringAssos apply the same S9 A-Lock Engineering for these Superléger shorts. This compromises a two-panel design made into a unique butterfly' panel design, snugly wrapping the legs and back to create a brand new ergoBox structure. This holds the insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and frictionless comfort no matter how intense your efforts. With fewer seams, weight is also reduced to the minimum. At the waist, raw-cut edges give a smooth transition between body and fabric, ensuring more comfort and less pressure. Raw-cut edges are also utilised at the leg openings, with minimal silicone grippers to keep your shorts in place with minimal weight and pressure. S9 SUNDECK Seat InsertAn evolution of the EQUIPE RS insert, the S9 SUNDECK enjoys a reduction in weight for less bulk. Assos' whirlKrater system is also deployed. This uses strategically placed holes throughout the pad to boost airflow, creating a pad that minimises sweat absorption and boosts breathability. You'll also have the benefits of the standard RS pad. Shock-absorbing SuperAir microShock foam, in a 3D waffle design, is quick to return to its original form, filling gaps each time you shift weight and change position on the saddle. The waffle design meanwhile, sees the use of three-layer perforated foam to increases breathability and reduce bulk. And with goldenGate technology, the unique design allows a more natural irritation-free movement when pedalling.

Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Bib Shorts S9 WerksteamThe Assos EQUIPE RS Summer Bib Shorts S9 Werksteam benefit from Assos' experience of clothing World Tour professional riders. With such demands placed on the kit by pro riders, this has pushed Assos' engineering team to create their finest bib shorts yet, with incredible muscle support, innovative construction and class-leading comfort.A-Lock EngineeringAt the heart of the S9 bib shorts is Assos' A-Lock Engineering. Using a combination of new construction methods and materials, Assos' engineers have managed to create a short where the seat insert remains perfectly positioned. They start with Type.441 textile, a silky smooth fabric which boasts incredible moisture management, anti-odour and long term durability - all-in-all, a perfect cycling fabric. Butterfly EngineeringAn innovative panel design creates an incredibly stable platform for the seat insert. Where their S7 shorts use four panels, the S9s reduce this to just two, lessening bulk, reducing seams and hence increasing comfort. The two panels form a unique 'butterfly' shape, wrapping around the legs snugly to form what Assos have named their ergoBox structure. It is this which keeps the seat insert perfectly positioned, whether you're in the saddle, out of the saddle, sprinting or climbing. rollBar Bib DesignAssos have also completely redesigned the bib straps on the S9. Just like an anti-sway bar on a car, the new rollBar design provides stability. The straps pass over the rear of the shorts and attach directly into the same seam as the seat insert, maintaining the perfect degree of tension as you transfer weight in and out of the saddle. The bib straps themselves are made with highly elastic materials, a single Y-frame piece in the back creating the ideal level of support for the shorts while exerting minimal pressure. Meanwhile, the front of the shorts uses an antibacterial carbon weave, wicking away moisture incredibly quickly for intense comfort. These are bib shorts you'll barely realise are there. S9 RS Equipe Seat PadThe RS Equipe Seat Pad delivers the comfort you need to concentrate on your performance. A super-soft antibacterial microfibre offers a luxurious feel against the skin while kraterCooler holes ensure excellent ventilation, preventing sweat build-up and promoting freshness.
