Assos Equipe R Bib Shorts S11

The Assos Equipe R S11 serves as the essential gateway into the brand's high-performance Racing Series, making it the ideal choice for competitive cyclists, crit racers, and fast club riders who want race-day technology for daily training miles. In terms of fit, this model features the aerodynamic racingFit silhouette. It delivers a highly compressive, second-skin feel that is aggressively patterned to align perfectly with the body when tucked low in the drops. For riders trying to choose between models, the Equipe R offers a tighter, more locked-in compression than the Mille series, but uses a slightly more accessible textile and insert platform than the flagship RS version, balancing pure speed with daily durability.

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.

FEATURED FABRICS: Type.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.

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.
