The ASSOS EQUIPE R Jersey S11 A50 is a lightweight race jersey designed for daily training, fast rides and racing in hot conditions. Sitting at the core of the ASSOS Racing Series, it uses trickledown technology from the RS and RSR lines, combining second-skin aerodynamics with extreme breathability and cooling performance.
The jersey is built around ASSOS’ ultralight AirCell textile, an open, hyper-cooling fabric that helps move heat and moisture away from the body during high-intensity efforts. The racingFit construction sits close to the body for an aerodynamic feel, while raw-cut sleeves and a streamlined panel layout reduce bulk and create a clean, race-ready silhouette.
Finished with a simplified construction, subtle ASSOS branding and secure rear pocket storage, the EQUIPE R Jersey S11 A50 delivers pure race utility for riders who want lightweight performance without unnecessary details.

The ASSOS EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S11 A50 bring the core of the ASSOS Racing Series into a limited-edition anniversary design. Created to celebrate 50 years of Swiss Speed Engineering, this A50 version combines daily training and race-day performance with highly breathable compression, a second-skin fit and a clean Robust Grey graphic.

The racingFit construction is shaped with WorldTour feedback, wrapping the main muscle groups with support while maintaining an aerodynamic silhouette for high-intensity riding.
At the centre of the short is the EQUIPE R S11 insert: a breathable 9mm racing platform with Shock-Absorb Damping System Mono 9, 3D Waffle foam and goldenGate 2.0 construction. Combined with the X-Frame bib suspension, zeroPressure Waist and raw-cut skinGrip Finish, the EQUIPE R Bib Shorts S11 A50 offer stable comfort for fast training, racing and long summer rides.
