Assos Equipe RS Aero Short Sleeve Summer Jersey in profBlack

BEHIND THE PRODUCT

WHY WE MADE IT
This jersey began life as our WorldTour template. We then improved it for committed cyclists who value comfort and fine finishing details but demand pro-tier aerodynamics. From the targeted blend of proprietary fabrics to the raw-cut sleeves and taped and bonded hems and zipper, this is the only choice for cyclists who see a jersey as a purpose-built, finely tuned piece of equipment. The RS Aero feels like it disappears once you’re in the saddle, but the sense of uncompromising quality is evident through every pedal stroke of every mile on every ride.

THE FINER DETAILS

FEATURED FABRICS

The jersey combines a body of miniCheck Tex—which provides that signature ASSOS jersey texture—with the impossibly light Stabilizer fabric at the back insert. The blend resists odor while promoting breathability and cooling airflow. Sleeves and pockets of Push Pull warp knit add a breathable, bi-stretch fit that wraps in stabilizing stretch. The textiles provide UPF 25, 30, and 50+ for the front, back, and sleeves, respectively.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT

Our aeroFit is the most aggressive, most aerodynamic, most compressive, and—simply—the fastest option in our racing line. It’s literally built for the WorldTour, so no start line is beyond its scope.

ENGINEERING

Triple Ramp Pockets: An extra flap of material secures personal effects, and an earphone port in the right pocket keeps headphone or radio wires discreet.
ENGINEERING

Raw-Cut Sleeves: By eliminating transitional ridges from arms to jersey, the sleeves remove an aerodynamic impediment from the jersey’s leading edge.
