The ASSOS TACTICA Kieskäfer Gravel Bib Shorts T5 are engineered for long-distance gravel riding and off-road exploration, combining durable construction with the comfort and stability required for rough terrain. Developed within the ASSOS TACTICA range, these ASSOS gravel bib shorts are designed to handle extended rides, unpredictable surfaces, and multi-surface adventures while maintaining the brand’s signature performance fit.
The shorts use robust, abrasion-resistant textiles that provide compressive muscle support while remaining breathable for long hours in the saddle. The gravel-specific construction integrates practical storage solutions, allowing riders to carry ride essentials without the need for additional bags. The TACTICA insert is tuned for off-road riding, delivering enhanced shock absorption and ventilation to manage vibrations and heat during demanding gravel and endurance rides.

The Women’s PAS Mechanism Pro Bibs are optimised for high-intensity training rides and races. As part of the PAS collection, they are built on the same performance-led platform as Mechanism Pro, combining a tight, aerodynamic fit with a women’s-specific construction tuned for speed, support, and long hours at race pace.
The bibs use a variable 4D-stretch construction to create a close, stable fit on the bike, while silicone-free grippers keep the leg opening secure without unnecessary bulk. A 4-layer ultralight chamois is designed for high-output riding, and the addition of a radio pocket underlines the bibs’ race-focused intent. The overall result is a women’s cycling bib short that feels streamlined, technical, and purpose-built for harder efforts.
