Reviews over the

Assos Equipe RS S9

Most awesome pants I have ever purchased!!! Light weight, chamois stays nicely in place. Nice construction of the pants with all the technical gadgets.... at assos they sure know how to make cycling apparel! Top pants

Pros & Cons

meets expectations

Pros & Cons

The pants fit great

Pros & Cons

I decided to buy these shorts because of the excellent references about Assos. I had heard very good things about them. And if they have such a reputation, it's for a reason. A bib shorts with great finishes. It is very comfortable (more than expected), also light and well ventilated and has an extra soft touch. Undoubtedly, it is one of the best investments you can make in cycling clothing.

Pros & Cons

I wasn’t sure about the straps on the back with out the mesh but found they very comfortable

Pros & Cons

Perfectly meets my expectations, as usual not disappointed with Assos products.

Pros & Cons

Pants purchased specifically for longer rides. Meets 100% of expectations

Pros & Cons

The product is outstanding, the pad is comfortable and very thick which makes the pants suitable for long climbs and trails. In contrast it is quite hot on really hot summer days especially when climbing; let's say above 35 degrees they get hot and you sweat a lot.

Pros & Cons

The fits perfectly ! I ride Assos bike shorts for about 10 years. I have always been a convinced Assos fan. The RS S9 I have worn on Malle for the first time. I was again convinced by the seat cushion and the fit of the pants. If they were not only so expensive :-( I could make myself happy with one or two more Assos Equipe RS S9 bike pants.

Pros & Cons

After a lot of research, these are the best pants for saddle problems, this is maybe the 5th pants in a short time that I have tried and finally I am rid of my complaints (mainly in the groin area). These pants in combination with chamois cream are the best choice for me !

Pros & Cons

€200 is apparently not enough for a decent Assos. Very unfortunate because I immediately recommended these pants to friends and they unfortunately experienced the same!!! I also expect more service from such brand / distributor.

Pros & Cons

Top pants. No more irritation in the groin area. Fits like a glove for me, 1m75 and 78kg

Pros & Cons

The best Assos cycling shorts what I ever had

Pros & Cons

Fine pants but too short legs. Creeps up, band has no grip. Chamois is top. Price is not realistic compared to competitors, but yes the brand on the back does wonders....

Pros & Cons

Assos would need no introduction. The shorts have been a best seller for years. Those who buy it for the first time will never be without it again

Pros & Cons

Very nice pants, for a purchase price like this you do a lot of research, you read all kinds of things about the pants to have no doubt. Everything you read is true, great pants, no saddle sores, no irritation. What you read a lot is that the legs are short, which can cause doubt, however I rode a Santini pants before this and the legs are the same. So short legs mainly depends on what you have been wearing before.

Pros & Cons

Ideal for the quick Wednesday ride

Pros & Cons

Everyone was so lyrical about these pants that I decided to purchase them for the AGR. Unfortunately, my experience is different than the reviews suggest. After 50 km I already experienced saddle pain, whereas before I never experienced this. Even the rides after that it persisted. Very disappointing, especially considering the price.

Pros & Cons

Fabric fits well

Pros & Cons

Bought these pants because of the rave reviews. Immediately rode 5 hour endurance ride with them and am very excited. Been upgraded to mid range bibs with good chamois for longer rides before, but this is again a big improvement. Indeed the pipes are a bit on the short side compared to other bibs, but absolutely worth the money in terms of riding comfort.

Pros & Cons

Very good pants, very good fit, with very good comfort, good seat on saddle,

Pros & Cons

Already third Assos pants and honestly: I don't want anything else! I have the previous version RS S7 but this one fits even better. I rode 200 km this weekend and the difference is noticeable. The chamois is still unique compared to many other pants I bought before. I bought the pro black version and it is very discreet with only black studs that give away that these are Assos top pants. Also, a nice discount came with the purchase as an extra and the delivery was great again: ordered today, delivered tomorrow!!! I return to Mantel satisfied!!!

Pros & Cons

For years I was looking for a bib that was good. Tried everything in the cheaper segment/entry-level models of the better brands. But it always just didn't work out, because after an hour of cycling I always had saddle pain. But now, since the assos bib I don't suffer from anything anymore! Other reviews indicate that it is expensive, yes almost high on the price, but buy two just not pants and you have the same price. Anyway, I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Pros & Cons

These pants are really comfortable. Feels great. Unfortunately I did not ride it because after trying it on I decided to send it back. I think the legs are much too short and because of the lack of silicone grippers on the inside the leg crawls up quite a bit. I had an L and with 184 and 72 kg this is the right size. Too bad about the short legs.

Pros & Cons

These pants fit wonderfully even after a long ride. No sore seat.

All that your heard about Assos being a step above the other brands is real. Top quality and confort. I'm 176cm tall and weight 69kg and went for size S based on most reviews. Fits great. Thank you Mantel for the great price and fast shipping!

Pros & Cons

Os calções Assos continuam a ser os melhores de todas as marcas que já experimentei. Os materiais empregues (lycra e carneira) bem como os pormenores na construção ainda estão um passo à frente das outras marcas, resultando num produto de qualidade excelente. Pena o preço e a ausência de promoções significativas, que posicionam o produto também em termos de preço no top. Mas a qualidade paga-se.
