Assos EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S11

The core of the Racing Series, a streamlined racing bib short with trickledown technology. Engineered with highly breathable compression in a second-skin fit for daily training and racing, the S11 generation is lighter and more comfortable in aggressive riding positions.

Behind the product
The EQUIPE R S11 is the spiritual successor to our classic NeoPro model, featuring technology from the premium RS SCHTRADIVARI Bib Shorts S11 in a simpler construction. That shared technology includes raw-cut cuffs, a minimal silicone grip, and the lightweight, compressive Type.911 textile. The key differences between the RS and the R are in the EQUIPE R S11 insert and the bib strap construction, both of which are simplified for pure racing utility.

Technology overview

The finer details
FEATURED FABRICSType.911 is a warp-knit textile with a silky-smooth, abrasion-resistant texture that provides stabilizing compression in a deeper, fuller black than the previous model – even while stretched. It's also hydrophobic and dries quickly, preventing weight gained through lingering moisture, and is equipped with odorControl properties and UPF 50+ protection.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT
Our racingFit is a second-skin, aerodynamic silhouette designed with WorldTour feedback and proven with WorldTour results. Micro-adjusted shaping wraps the large muscles with compressive support in a standard racingFit length, which is slightly longer than the standard regularFit.

zeroPressure Waist:
Highly elastic waist construction that conforms with a second-skin fit while reducing pressure in aggressive riding positions.

skinGrip Finish:
Raw-cut edges with minimal anti-slip finishing secures the legs in place without excessive pressure or seams.

X-Frame:
An A-frame suspension inherited from the EQUIPE RS line. Limits sag on the lower back, stabilizing the insert and main body panel during high-intensity riding.

Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9:
Compressive foam materials in a breathable 9mm racing platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.

3D Waffle:
A patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.

goldenGate 2.0:
The insert is attached at front and rear with floating sides and center, letting it move with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on the sides reduce volume and friction throughout the pedal stroke.

WHEN/HOW TO USE IT
Combine with the R Jersey S11, Racing Socks S11, and Summer 1/3 Racing Series ASSOSOIRES for daily training and racing utility.
