Assos EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S11 - Edge Green

The EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S11 is a racing-focused bib short engineered to deliver a second-skin silhouette with the comfort and durability required for daily training and competition. Built around Assos Type.911 warp-knit textiles, the shorts provide stabilising compression that supports large muscle groups while remaining highly breathable and quick-drying. That combination keeps you efficient through long efforts and hot-weather rides without carrying extra moisture or weight.

Fit is deliberately performance-oriented. The racingFit cut is slightly longer and more contoured than a regular fit, producing an aerodynamic profile without restricting pedalling motion. A zeroPressure waist reduces soft-tissue pressure in aggressive positions, while the X-Frame A-suspension helps keep the insert and main body panels stable under load so the pad remains correctly positioned in and out of the saddle. Raw-cut skinGrip cuffs with a minimal silicone finish hold the legs secure without heavy seams or harsh compression.

Assos’ EQUIPE R S11 insert is a 9 mm racing platform that pairs a compressive foam core with the 3D Waffle architecture to increase breathability and lower weight. The goldenGate 2.0 attachment system anchors the pad at the front and rear while allowing the sides and centre to move slightly with the body. The result is reduced friction and fewer pressure points across the pedal stroke. Materials list and construction prioritise breathability and quick drying, so the shorts are best used where ventilation and rapid moisture management are important.

Key Features

• Type.911 warp-knit fabric - silky, abrasion-resistant knit that delivers compressive support, quick drying and UPF 50+ protection.
• 9 mm EQUIPE R S11 insert - a thermoformed, compressive race pad using 3D Waffle perforated foam for breathability and reduced weight.
• goldenGate 2.0 attachment - floating side panels and anchored front and rear attachment to reduce friction and allow the pad to move with the body.
• zeroPressure waist - highly elastic waist construction that reduces pressure in aggressive riding positions.
• skinGrip raw-cut cuffs - minimal silicone finish secures leg openings without heavy seams or excessive compression.
• X-Frame A-suspension - stabilises the lower back and keeps the insert in place during high-intensity efforts.
• Performance thermal and breath ratings - engineered for warm conditions with high breathability and fast drying.

Ideal For

• Road cyclists who want a race-oriented, compressive bib for tempo efforts, intervals and event days.
• Riders training in warm to hot conditions who prioritise ventilation and quick-drying fabrics.
• Anyone who prefers a close-fitting, aerodynamic short that holds its shape on long rides and repeated use.
