Assos EQUIPE RS S11 SCHTRADIVARI Bib Shorts Men - Standard - black series

The next generation of our flagship WorldTour bib shorts, re-engineered with lower weight, increased cooling breathability, and more comfortable, body-wrapping compression from waist to raw-cut leg openings.

The critical updates to the new EQUIPE RS shorts are a new textile and a new insert. The new textile, Type.911, allowed us to completely reengineer the cut, reducing the seam count and wrinkles while micro-adjusting fit across the legs and waist. It also let us eliminate the rollBar bib strap design, because Type.911 is more elastic and more compressive than the Type.441 used on the previous generation. Rather than merely suspended from bib straps, the S11 shorts envelope the rider’s body in omnidirectional, body-mapped stability. The new RS S11 insert’s top sheet is both softer against the body and more durable for washing, and it has an improved odor control treatment while maintaining its predecessor’s cooling airflow, micro-shock damping, and low-volume, lightweight profile.

Features of the Assos EQUIPE RS SCHTRADIVARI S11 bib shorts for men

• Type.911 is a new textile in jersey weave developed for the SCHTRADIVARI. Its silky smooth, abrasion-resistant texture offers stabilizing compression in a deeper, more intense black than its predecessor. It also dries quickly to prevent weight gain from residual moisture, protects with UPF 50+ and is odor-resistant.
• The racingFit is an aerodynamic second-skin silhouette that has been developed based on feedback from the WorldTour, where it has proven its worth, with compressive textiles, a micro-adjusted shape and open-edged seams and cuffs with low volume, making the racingFit a series for ultimate speed.
• cranKio Tec: Reduces creasing at the front of the hips when pedaling to prevent movement and friction between the textile and the rider's body.
• INject leg gripper: The grip is only applied to the back of the open-edged leg opening, reducing friction and weight and protecting the grip area from damage caused by the sun.
• Soft compression Module: Provides body-enveloping, omnidirectional compression and stability with a waist construction that prevents restriction in aggressive riding positions.
• Mineral Tec Surface: A soft, super-smooth surface that reduces friction and irritation while creating extra comfort with quick-drying properties and durable odor control.
• Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9: Compressive foams in a single-layer 9 mm racing platform minimize volume and weight. The thermoformed shape prevents wrinkles and irritation.
• kraterCooler: An ultra-light, perforated panel at the front creates a cooling airflow over the insert.
• whirlKrater: Perforations strategically distributed over the entire padding to create a cooling, swirling airflow instead of one-sided ventilation.
• goldenGate 2.0: The insert is attached at the front and back, while the sides and center remain loose. So it moves with your body and not against it. New cut-outs on the side wings reduce volume and friction when pedaling.
