Assos Mille GTS Spring Fall Bib Short (S11) (Black Series) (S)

Assos Mille GTS Spring Fall Bib Short Description:

The Assos Mille GTS Spring Fall Bib Short was engineered to deliver the comfort, performance, and a bit of protection from the elements that will allow a rider to start their outdoor riding earlier in the spring and continue throughout the fall. A highly elastic warp-knit Sphere softshell fabric featuring OSMOS Light insulation and a DIAMOND Ultra 2L membrane is formed into a butterfly-wrap paneling that will envelope the skin and muscles in a lightly compressive, but not constrictive, embrace. Not only will this fabric enhance muscular performance, it provides a bit of insulation and waterproof protection and has enough breathability to actively modulate temperatures and prevent overheating when the sun peaks out from the clouds. Supporting this fabric from above are wide shoulder straps that will disappear under outer layers, and thanks to the unique Rollbar bracing construction these straps keep everything exactly where it is needed for outstanding chaffing prevention and proper support for the soft tissues.

Speaking of support, the feature packed dual density chamois GTS S11 is sculpted to put the 13mm of padding exactly where it is needed for shock and vibration absorption while eliminating excessive bulk for greater freedom of movement. Additionally, a kukuPenthouse front panel, 3D waffle construction, and other construction techniques are used in conjunction with the padding to ensure the insides of the shorts are kept dry and at an optimal temperature which will help in the prevention of chaffing and improve overall comfort. Finally, the longer legs provide outstanding muscular performance and coverage for the upper legs, and PILtec leg bands with microdot silicone detailing at the leg openings will secure the lower section of the shorts without constricting the movement of the legs so the rider can focus all of their energy on having a comfortable and fun time on the bike.

Features:

• Endurance-focused bib short with stretchy softshell technology adds warmth and comfort that allows for earlier starts to the outdoor riding season and to extend the season deep into the fall
• Stretchy warp knit Sphere softshell featuring a Diamond Ultra 2L membrane and OSMOS Light insulation actively modulates temperatures, enhances breathability, and offers waterproof protection all while having a second skin, pressure-free fit
• Extended front and back panels provides extra support, thermoregulating comfort, and overlap with outer layers even when tucked in aggressive riding positions
• Wide shoulder straps with raw edges will disappear under outer layers, lay comfortably against the skin, and provide excellent support for the lowers
• Rollbar bracing extends and attaches the bottom of the shoulder straps close to the chamois, which provides much greater stability for the chamois as a rider moves around on the saddle
• Lightweight, ultra-breathable PILtec textile band across the leg opening doesn’t constrict around the riders leg and uses microdot silicone detailing to keep the legs in place even when the skin and fabric are wet
• Soft, highly elastic zeroPressure waist construction will improve comfort and overall hold on the waist without any pressure or pinching
• Dual-layer GTS S11 chamois is sculpted along the sides to reduce volume and friction throughout the pedal stroke, and uses a 13mm thick padding with fast drying, high density foam materials to provide outstanding shock absorption and micro-vibration dampening control
• goldenGate 2.0 chamois anchoring attaches the chamois at the front and rear and allows the sides and center to move and float so the chamois freely moves with the body for better chaffing prevention
• 3D waffle top layer of the chamois uses various dimpling, perforations, and other construction techniques to improve breathability and maintains a cool, dry microclimate in the shorts without added bulk or weight
• An ultra-soft kukuPenthouse front panel improves decency, directs comforting and drying air throughout the inside of the shorts, and eliminates pressure even with the compressive fabric found throughout the rest of the garment
