Official ASSOS XC Bib Shorts

For the World Cup and home trails alike: the XC Bib Shorts by ASSOS

Mountain bikers also need functional clothing, which is why ASSOS has developed the MTB-specific, high-quality off-road collection. They were faced with the challenge of designing breathable yet durable shorts that offered the characteristic ASSOS performance, while not being too expensive. The result of all that hard work are these XC-specific bib shorts, made from the highly abrasion-resistant and breathable dyneRope ripstop material. A tough, lightweight and extra breathable product suitable for the toughest XC trails.
These shorts have been put through their paces by the best riders of the BMC MTB race team. According to them, the dyneRope material on the outside of the legs wicks away moisture like no other shorts, allowing the model to offer world-class performance, similar to riders during the 2017 UCI MTB World Cup series.
But no matter how hard you pedal off-road, ASSOS comfort in the saddle is not to be missed. That’s what the luxurious MTB-specific insert is for. It’s set a little more forward than a chamois designed for the road. With its 10 mm Memory Foam, it is perfect for the steepest climbs and the most adventurous flow trails. From the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup to the trails in your home country – let’s go.

Technology:

AEPD
Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design is the know-how, experience and philosophy with which ASSOS works out and designs the fit of the products in such a way that it harmonises perfectly with the sitting position on the bike. ASSOS clothing is designed to adapt perfectly to and merge with the body on the bike. High-tech materials are basically useless unless they are perfectly cut and processed.

ALS
The ASSOS collection is a sophisticated and technically advanced clothing system in which all products are coordinated and designed to complement and work together perfectly in every season. The ASSOS Layering System (ALS) divides the year into 3 different temperature ranges – from summer to spring/autumn to winter (Outfit Climarange). The goal of ALS is to keep your body warm and dry in all climatic conditions. The advantage of the ASSOS collection lies in its versatility; the products can be intelligently stacked and combined in layers.

Type.429 Titanio
A unique fabric based on many years of ASSOS experience with four-way stretch for maximum elasticity.

dyneRope tex
The full side panels are made of dyneRope material, a figure-hugging fabric with ripstop weave in black polyethylene. The strongest fibre in the world, 15 times stronger than steel. Lightweight and cut resistant. The material was positioned where the riders’ legs could be injured in a fall.

ASSOS goldenGate
Breaks the seams between the legs. This creates a three-dimensional freedom of movement in the most sensitive areas. The design has fewer seams, which reduces friction.

Offroad Chamois
The 10 mm memory foam insert combines comfort and performance. Thanks to the patented elastic insert designed by ASSOS, the insert moves with your body. It stays in place and follows your every move for less friction and premium comfort. For the Offroad XC Bibshorts, the position and additional thickness of the chamois have been optimised so that it adapts to the upright sitting position during mountain biking. Includes ASSOS waffle technology: instead of monolithic linear foam, the S7 generation has been upgraded with a perforated foam that is more breathable and weighs less.

Size Guide:

ASSOS products are designed to fit the body of a cyclist perfectly. The cut of the products is anatomically shaped according to the ASSOS cut design philosophy AEPD. This means that ASSOS products perfectly surround and protect the body without constricting it when riding. ASSOS products are not very comfortable in the upright position – they stretch – and this is completely normal. So go into a bent posture like on a bike and feel how it ” clicks” and the clothes now fit perfectly. ASSOS technical products are made for real cycling and not for leisure activities.
If you’re built more than slim or if you like your fit looser, go up a size.
