The pinnacle of racing technology, combining our lightest, most compressive textiles with aggressive second-skin aerodynamics. Engineered for ultra-endurance races at unrelenting intensity.
Behind the product:
More breathable, more compressive, more aerodynamic – the EQUIPE RSR S11 replaces the RSR SUPERLÉGER S9 as the most advanced Racing Series short in ASSOS history. The new textile wrapping the large muscle groups of the legs is Assos's most compressive Kompressor textile to date, providing firm support to reduce the accumulated fatigue from micro-vibrations during hours of high-intensity riding. The seat and core are wrapped in the less compressive Type. 911, which is the main textile of the RS S11 and R S11 bib shorts, employed here to relieve pressure on sensitive areas. The combination of compressive, ultra-elastic textiles allowed Assos to remove the rollBar while maintaining 360-degree stability, and the raw-cut waist eliminates restriction. The new RSR S11 insert incorporates the same low-volume, microshock-absorbing comfort and hyper cooling airflow of the RS S11 insert, but it includes additional shock-absorbing modules beneath the ischial bones, oriented for maximum effect in aggressive riding positions.
The Finer Details
FEATURED FABRICS: The all-new Type.959Kompressor is a proprietary woven textile that's more breathable, more cooling, and more compressive than previous Kompressor materials. It also protects the rider with increased abrasion resistance, and its integrated anti-slip properties eliminate shifting and friction. The seat and core are wrapped in the Type.911 textile that defines the rest of the Racing Series – a soft, compressive, and ultrabreathable textile that remains deeply, fully black, even while stretching. Both textiles are UPF 50+.
Endurance Compression: Muscle-wrapping support that reduces fatigue during multi-hour, high-intensity rides. The textile panels are arranged to maximise compressive benefits.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT: The AEDP flederMann pattern is a second-skin, aerodynamic racingFit designed with WorldTour feedback and proven with WorldTour results. Micro-adjusted shaping wraps the large muscles with compressive support in a longer, more aerodynamic leg length.
