Assos EQUIPE RS Jersey S9 TARGA

The Pro-tier performance of the EQUIPE RS Jersey S9 TARGA is achieved via a number of factors, including continuing with the aerodynamic detailing of its predecessor, careful fabric choice, bonded seam technology and Assos' aggressive RacingFit. 

Assos RacingFit

Made for the WorldTour, you can expect the Assos RacingFit to give you a second-skin fit that seeks to offer maximum performance from your hard-won fitness. With a cut designed to excel in aero riding positions, it will feel strange when you first pull the jersey on. But settle into the drops or bar extensions and it all makes sense. Compression in all the right places also delivers outstanding comfort and support. 

Fast but Comfortable Fabrics 

The fast functional fabric mix begins with the use of Assos miniCheck Tex fabric to the front. This 3D knit fabric is extremely elastic to give you the close aero fit needed to go fast, streamlining you to optimise your power output. But not just that, it's highly breathable too, ensuring you don't get overwhelmed with sweat when your race and training efforts intensify.

Elsewhere, the rear of the jersey sees Assos' featherweight Stabilizer textile deployed. This holds the jersey smoothly in place thanks to its limited vertical stretch, keeping airflow smooth and uninterrupted while also supporting the rear pockets.

Lastly, taking into account a low and aggressive riding position, the raw-cut bonded Push-Pull textile sleeves eliminate any disruptive tape or seams from the leading edge, giving a true lie flat, low drag transition from jersey to skin. 

Practical Features

With the focus on performance, the Assos team haven't overlooked those small practical details that you need when training and racing. To the back, the Triple Ramp Pockets are easily accessible and pre-structured for optimal capacity and stability when loaded. A flap also offers extra security, preventing items from spilling out. 

An ultralight bonded cam-lock zipper to the front gives you full control of ventilation to the body and a lightweight taped waist keeps bulk low, the fit smooth. And with fabrics offering a range of ultraviolet protection, from UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) 25 to 50, this is a jersey ideal for summer racing.
