Assos Tactica T5 – Bib Shorts with Pad

Two thigh pockets offer additional storage space for important utensils and provisions for longer exploration tours. The proven rollBar technology secures the gravel-optimized TACTICA T5 insert, which absorbs bumps and lets you glide smoothly over trails.

Features – Tactica T5

• RX EVO:: a breathable, thermo-regulating textile with a water-repellent ECO finish and a soft, roughened inside. The elastic elements are black throughout and do not turn white even when the material stretches.
• Tactica T5 fit: The movement-enhancing TACTICA T5 fit is less aggressive than the racingFit and manages the balancing act between streamlined aerodynamics with low volume, comfort over many hours and fewer restrictions when you’re not in the saddle.
• zeroPressure Waist: A waistband made of highly elastic material that fits like a second skin and at the same time reduces pressure in aggressive riding positions.
• rollBar: A patented reinforcement design that ASSOS has adopted from the Racing Series. It stabilizes the insert and keeps it in place when you shift your weight while sprinting, climbing and cornering.
• PILtec Plug-In: The leg opening is fitted with a lightweight, ultra-breathable textile band. The micro-dot silicone treatment, invisible from the outside, stabilizes the fit and provides support even in wet conditions.
• Seat pad:
  • Shock-Absorb Damping Mono: Compressive layers of 11 mm thick foam designed for endurance. A thermoformed cut reduces irritating transitions and friction.
  • goldenGate 2.0: A free-floating construction that moves with the body instead of against it. New cut-outs on the side wings reduce friction when pedaling.
  • 3D Waffle: A patented three-layer perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
• ASSOS Clima Range: Spring Fall 2/3
• Fit: Slim Fit (ASSOS racingFit)

Technology

ALS (ASSOS Layering System)
Less is more. The entire ASSOS collection is designed according to this philosophy. The aim in the development of ASSOS textiles is to utilize the body’s natural heat-regulating properties through different layers of clothing with a minimum of weight and volume. Both the fabrics and the garments are always geared towards their specific function and designed to complement each other perfectly. Everything fits together like a puzzle, both technically and aesthetically.
