Assos TACTICA KIESKAFER Bib Shorts T5

Off-road bib shorts blending performance and durability for competition and touring alike, refined with integrated storage, a more compressive textile, and a simplified, weight-saving construction.

Behind the product

Gravel and singletrack performance, upgraded ? the TACTICA KIESK?FER T5 replaces the GTC KIESPANZER C2 with a lighter, more breathable, and more compressive construction. The key upgrades are the Type.911 textile, and the stabilizing rollBar, which are adapted from the Racing Series, bringing high-intensity road performance to off-road riding. The thigh pockets are also larger, granting expanded storage for easy access to ride essentials and fuel. For the T5 generation, we also updated the insert with more shock-absorbing foam, muting chatter and smoothing repeated impacts on gravel and trails.
The finer details
FEATURED FABRICS Type.911 is a warp-knit textile with a silky-smooth, abrasion-resistant texture that provides stabilizing compression in a deeper, fuller black than the previous model. It's also hydrophobic and dries quickly, preventing weight gained through lingering moisture, and is equipped with odor Control properties and UPF 50+ protection. The pockets are created with panels of K-Net, a supportive, breathable warp-knit mesh that wraps contents in stabilizing security.
