Description
Simply A Masterpiece
The Assos Men's Equipe RS Bib Shorts S11 "SCHTRADIVARI" are next generation of flagship WorldTour bib shorts, re-engineered with lower weight, increased cooling breathability, and more comfortable, body-wrapping compression from waist to raw-cut leg openings. Available in a standard or long leg length.
The critical updates to the new EQUIPE RS shorts are a new textile and a new insert. The new textile, Type.911, allowed Assos to completely reengineer the cut, reducing the seam count and wrinkles while micro-adjusting fit across the legs and waist. It also eliminated the rollBar bib strap design, because Type.911 is more elastic and more compressive than the previous generation.
Rather than merely suspended from bib straps, the S11 shorts envelop the rider's body in omnidirectional, body-mapped stability. The new RS S11 insert's top sheet is both softer against the body and more durable for washing, and it has an improved odor control treatment while maintaining its predecessor's cooling airflow, micro-shock damping, and low-volume, lightweight profile.
Features:
- Type.911 is a new warp-knit textile composed for the SCHTRADIVARI. Its silky smooth, abrasion-resistant texture provides stabilizing compression in a deeper, fuller black than the previous model. It also dries quickly, preventing weight gained through lingering moisture, and is equipped with UPF 50+ protection and odor control.
- cranKio Tec: Reduces wrinkling across the front of the hips during the pedal stroke to eliminate movement and friction between the textile and the rider.
- INject leg gripper: Grip applied only across the back of the raw-cut leg opening, reducing friction and weight while protecting the gripping portion from sun damage.
- Soft Compression Module: Provides body-enveloping, omnidirectional compression and stability with a waist construction that eliminates restriction in aggressive riding positions.
- Mineral Tec Surface: A soft, ultrasmooth coversheet that reduces friction and irritation while promoting comfort with quick-drying properties and permanent odorControl.
- Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9: Compressive foam materials in a single-layer 9mm racing platform that minimizes volume and weight. Thermoformed shaping eliminates ridges and irritation.
- kraterCooler: An ultralight panel of perforated support at the front creates cooling airflow across the insert.
- whirlKrater: Perforations strategically distributed throughout the insert, creating a whirlwind of cooling airflow instead of just a unidirectional breeze.
- goldenGate 2.0: The insert is attached at front and rear with floating sides and center, letting it move with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on wings reduce volume and friction throughout the pedal stroke.
- 80% Polyamide, 20% Elastane

Reviews
Got these on sale and have a few hundred miles on them. These are one of the most comfortable Bibs that I own now, or a close second to some Rapha Bibs that are on there way out. It's really about the way the chamois is designed. It has way less tendency bind the groin. This particular model has a ample thickness to the pad without feeling like a diaper like some Assos Bibs can be a bit too much, not these! They are a great summer weight with near to knee coverage which I prefer.
I got them in a Large Long, I am 73 inches and weigh 172. These are plenty compressive on the thigh for me. If you really like a squeeze a medium would have fit me too. Anyhoo, I wrote a review which means I'm really happy with these.
This new material is awesome, great compression you can feel. Hard to improve a great chamois. The Mille shorts are better for longer distances though. Also the new long length is great as well.
I�ve been wearing Assos bibs since �95. IMO, nothing even comes close. They�re expensive sure, but you really get what you pay for. I have a pair of S9�s that are 5 years old, still great. They continue to make each iteration just a bit better. New material is outstanding, chamois, nothing comes close.
Liked these so much I got a second pair once they went on sale. Having used the RS11 bibs for 3 months straight of daily 20-30mi, elevation-filled endurance rides - I can confirm they're worth every penny. Bulletproof fabrics. Rotating between the two cuts my cycling gear laundry in half - these two pairs are the only new bibs I own. Sold or traded / gave away my Pro Team bibs, as someone else mentioned on here - once you try these everything else feels inferior. Have worn them in 60 to 100+ degrees F - unbelievably comfortable. With no base layer they're also comfortable, I was skeptical the straps would irritate me. Like wearing nothing but a chamois. Assos really nailed it with these, everything from the cut to the shaping and body support - I've never worn a better bib. Highly recommended.
Recently picked these up and took them on multiple 3+ hour road / gravel rides. Just incredibly supportive and comfortable. There's a lot of thought put into these. Assos takes the cake as far as bib shorts goes - the cut and the chamois system is unmatched by other manufacturers. These and Mission Workshop's Pro bibs are the best money can buy in my book. Spent the last decade or so buying mostly Rapha Pro Team bibs, and sadly their quality has been declining. Assos bibs are without question all I can wear now and I don't know why took me so long to switch! Worth every penny.
