S7 generation: The latest generation of ASSOS cycling shorts, employing technology and fabrics engineered over a 5 year period.
racingFit: A fit that is is tighter and slightly more compressive than our alternative regularFit and comfortFit options. May feel restrictive out of of the riding position but feels like a second skin while riding and results in a higher performance, improved comfort and less drag.
Type.444 Kompressor: A material we created in collaboration with our fabric suppliers for pinnacle product. Lighter than lycra, with unique stretch properties which allow the final garment to offer superior compression.
aeroPatterningFenomeno1 design: Drawing on learnings from our project to create the fastest skinsuit at the 2012 Olympics, this original design involves crafting the garment with a single seam that sits on the rear of your legs causing the main fabric of the shorts to wrap around your thighs, providing a unique level of comfort and compression.
ergoKompressor: Our intelligent compression approach, used to leverage performance gains resulting from improved aerodynamics and reduced muscle fatigue. Necessarily a notably tighter fit, hence the millimetre perfect clickFit garment entry.
Y7 frame carrier bibTech: A bib redesign that involving using a wider cut of elastic for less pressure on your shoulders, resulting in less friction and more comfort.
bibStabilizer: A silicon piece attached to the bib straps that keeps them flat and stable. They also serve as a holder for our ASSOS sunglasses.
cento_S7 insert: Maximum comfort chamois pad with 10mm of memory foam.
ASSOS waffle: The patented three layer foam used in ASSOS inserts with perforations that make it light and highly breathable.
ASSOS superAir: A development of the ASSOS waffle technology for even greater breathability and lower weight.
ASSOS goldenGate: A patented technology which augments the performance of the insert by allowing the most fluent movement with the body.
ASSOS rearTerminal: A method for fully incorporating the rear of the insert into the back of the shorts to reduce volume and minimise seams.
kuKuPenthouse: A unique innovation added to the front part of the insert that cocoons the male anatomy offering protection and temperature control.
superFlat grippers: Ultra minimal grippers with optimal stretch return to secure the shorts in place without any excessive pressure.
iceColor: A fabric treatment that reflects sunlight and thus reduces heat absorption to keep muscles cooler.
odorControl: An anti-bacterial treatment that reduces unpleasant odors and improves durability.
Composition: 59% PA, 31% EA, 10% PES
