The new generation of bib shorts for serious cyclists: no chafing at the waist, with an improved breathable chamois and with a fabric that hugs the muscles.
Inside the product : Assos has taken the opportunity of this restyling to make the MILLE GT shorts even more performing, improving the much loved features of its predecessor. So they chose suspenders with X-Frame construction, a comfortable fit at the waist, 5 grams less weight and a 28% reduction in seams. Obviously the bottom has not been overlooked, to which they have applied the greater ventilation typical of the GTS / GTO models and 3 mm of additional thickness. Furthermore, the Odor Control Top Sheet Tex has been renewed with the color Sugar Blue.
Technology overview
The particularities
Featured Fabrics : Type.429 fabric has all the key features: the stretch to ensure an aerodynamic fit, breathability to face the summer heat, compression to support the body, and durability to withstand the wear and tear of countless rides. A perfect daily ally.
Construction/Fit : The C2 AEPD regularFit cut is inherited from our performance racing models, but with an extra touch of comfort, thanks to the Zero-Pressure Waist technology applied to the waist. Aerodynamic performance for long rides, with a standard leg length.
Engineering :
-
Zero-Pressure Waist : An innovative and comfortable structure with a new elastic that prevents the shorts from sagging ensuring a perfect fit.
-
X-Frame : A-shaped structure inherited from the suspenders of the MILLE GTS model, to prevent the shorts from sagging in the lumbar area and ensure a secure fit that stabilizes the chamois and the main panel.
-
Ultralight Leg Grippers : 6 cm high leg elastic, which adheres to the thigh thanks to the skin elastomer, without silicone treatment, to guarantee a soft and ultra-light grip.
THOUSAND GT C2 :
-
Shock-Absorb Damping Mono : Layers of compressive foam in an 11mm structure created for endurance. The thermoformed structure reduces wrinkles and irritations.
-
goldenGate : Stitching that secures the chamois at the front and back, but allows the chamois to gently follow the movements of your body.
-
3D Waffle : A patented three-layer perforated foam that increases breathability and sheds excess weight.
