The Assos Equipe R S11 Bib Shorts are performance-oriented spring/fall cycling bib shorts designed for cooler conditions, aggressive riding positions, and high-intensity training or racing.
They combine thermal protection, weather resistance, and race-focused support while maintaining the streamlined feel expected from the ASSOS Racing Series.
Key Features
Insulating Spring/Fall Textile
The bib shorts use the same insulating textile found in ASSOS Winter Warmers, providing:
- Increased warmth over previous EQUIPE models
- Better temperature regulation in cool conditions
- Soft next-to-skin comfort
- Breathability during hard efforts
Unlike the older generation, the new design removes the double-layer crotch construction to create:
- More uniform thermoregulation
- Consistent insulation across the body
- Reduced overheating in the core area
Weather Protection
Eco-Friendly Water-Repellent Finish
The fabric is treated with a durable water-repellent coating that:
- Causes road spray and light rain to bead off
- Helps maintain warmth in damp conditions
- Reduces water absorption
- Improves comfort during unpredictable weather
This makes the shorts especially suitable for:
- Transitional seasons
- Wet roads
- Cool early-morning rides
Racing Fit & Support
The EQUIPE line is built around aggressive riding positions and higher-intensity efforts.
Compared with the Mille range:
- Fit is more compressive
- Cut is more aerodynamic
- Support is more race-oriented
The body-hugging construction helps:
- Reduce movement
- Improve muscle support
- Maintain stability during hard pedaling
EQUIPE R S11 Insert
Updated Race-Focused Shape
The new insert is specifically engineered for:
- Aggressive road positions
- High-cadence efforts
- Reduced pressure during sustained power output
goldenGate 2.0 Construction
The insert uses ASSOS’ free-floating design:
- Moves naturally with the rider
- Reduces friction and bunching
- Improves comfort during intense pedaling
The revised wing cut-outs further decrease irritation throughout the pedal stroke.
Best For
These bib shorts are ideal for:
- Spring and autumn riding
- Cool-weather racing
- Fast endurance training
- High-intensity road cycling
