Assos – Dyora Rs Bib Shorts S9 – Women’s – Black Series

Featuring a host of performance features and the sublime DYORA RS Women’s specific insert, the Assos Women’s Dyora RS Bib Shorts S9 are the ultimate race shorts for female cyclists.

 

Engineered for the Female Athlete

The Women’s Dyora RS Bib Shorts S9 are borne of Assos’ desire to make the best performing and most comfortable shorts for the most demanding of women cyclists. Engineered with a host of innovative features they provide incredible comfort when you’re climbing and descending, out of the saddle sprinting, in the saddle pushing hard on the pedals and moving over long hours of riding. They’re designed to offer comfort during even the toughest of race conditions.

A-Lock Engineering

A-Lock engineering is all about using new fabrics and technologies to create a short with incredible stability and a seat insert that is perfectly positioned at all times. The start of this system is a new fabric, Type.441 textile. This is a fabric which has exceptional compression qualities and with its silk feel is incredibly comfortable against the skin. Not only that it’s quick-wicking, anti-odour and durable, the perfect fabric for performance cycling.

Float like a Butterfly

The next phase of the A-Lock engineering system are significant advances in the panel and construction design, leading to incredibly stable shorts and a seat insert that stays in place perfectly. Firstly the panelling number is reduced, reducing complexity and weight while enhancing comfort. The result of using fewer panels is also a reduction in seams, again boosting comfort through the elimination of chafing while also saving more weight. The panels are then engineered into Assos’ unique ‘butterfly’ panel design, snugly wrapping the legs and back to create a brand new ergoBox structure. This holds the insert securely in place for an incredible feeling of support and comfort no matter how intense your efforts or how much you shift weight.

rollBar Bib Design

The bib straps also get completely redesigned, with a brand new rollBar system for unrivalled support of the lower shorts section. The rollBar system acts just like an anti-sway bar in a car, the straps stabilising and securing the seat insert in place as you move. The straps are attached across the same seam as the insert, maintaining the perfect degree of tension as you transfer weight in and out of the saddle.

The bib straps themselves are made from a combination of highly elastic materials and a single piece in the back forming an A-frame which supports the shorts perfectly. In the front, the straps are made of a more flexible material, with an antibacterial carbon weave, to wick moisture and lay flat – the result is extremely lightweight straps you will barely notice. They’re positioned wider apart at the front too, taking into account the female anatomy and accommodating a wide range of body shapes. 

Women’s DYORA RS Insert

At the heart of the Dyora RS Bib Shorts is the women’s specific Women’s DYORA RS Insert.  This seat pad takes race-focused comfort to a whole new level. Assos use an incredibly soft antibacterial microfiber next to the skin to offer all-day freshness. Next comes a 3D three-layer perforated waffle foam which both boosts breathability and reduces weight and bulk. Then a superAir microShock foam core offers incredible shock absorption and memory return, it re-adapts to your body position every time you shift weight, leading to unrivalled support when in and out of the saddle. Lastly, the goldenGate technology, a patented design,  sees interrupts stitching along both of the insert’s side panels to allow more three-dimensional freedom of movement in this sensitive, rotational area.

In conclusion, Assos has once again redefined what high-performance race shorts are, pushing fabric and engineering technology to new levels. Their finest fitting and most comfortable women’s cycling shorts to date, letting you push your performance beyond your expectations.
