Highlights & Technologies:

TYPE.911 TEXTILE:
The silky smooth yet abrasion-resistant structure of the textile provides stabilising compression. With the help of this elastic material, seams and wrinkles on the trousers can be reduced. This material was developed for ASSOS' top-of-the-range models and thus meets high demands on comfort and function.

NO MORE ODOR:
Carbon fibres in the textile have antimicrobial properties and thus contribute to odour inhibition.

ROLLBAR:
A clever design inspired by a stabilizer of a race car, with the straps acting as a stabiliser for the padding and compensating for the weight shifting when cornering and pedalling. This is because the straps are attached to the trousers on the lower torso close to the seat pad and on the lower back – thus, the straps allow for high flexibility during weight shifting and keep the pad firmly in place.

ZEROPRESSURE WAIST:
A soft, highly elastic and seamless mid-body design improves comfort and stability without exerting pressure or pinching.

TACTICA T5 INSERT:
This seat pad is a true off-road specialist and provides support as well as comfort off-road on gravel and trails.
• Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono: A breathable, 11 mm thick padding layer ensures off-road comfort by effectively absorbing micro-shocks and vibrations.
• goldenGate 2.0: A processing technology where the stitching along both sides of the pad is interrupted to provide three-dimensional mobility in this sensitive area.
• 3D waffle: A three-layer perforated foam increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.

TRIPLE RAMP POCKETS:
Elasticated fabric panels sewn into the pockets can be used to cover the contents and thus protecting personal belongings from falling out. These "lids" provide additional safety and stability.

PILTEC PLUG-IN:
The rear hem of the jersey comes with a light and breathable textile band with micro-dot silicone treatment. This stabilises the back panel of the jersey and ensures good hold even in wet conditions.
