Assos Tactica KIESKÄFER Gravel Bib Shorts T5
If you’re ready for an off-road adventure, the Assos Tactica KIESKÄFER Gravel Bib Shorts T5 are the perfect companion to ensure a comfortable ride. Whether it’s a multi-day tour or competitive XC and Gravel racing, the Tactica T5 maintain a compressive fit, optimal stability and features extra storage for essentials you want within easy reach. Replacing the previous GTC KIESPANZER C2 model, the KIESKÄFER Gravel Bib Shorts are lighter, more compressive, and more breathable, boosting comfort as you speed along gravel roads or whip around singletrack trails. The Type.911 textile used in their construction gives a silky smooth but abrasion-resistant finish. Type 911 is also hydrophobic and quick drying, preventing moisture retention from adding to garment weight, and is equipped with odorControl properties for freshness and UPF 50+ protection for sunnier days.
To the upper body, rollBar bib straps provide stability to the seat pad so it’s always in the right place and giving perfect comfort. Large thigh pockets are made from K-Net, a breathable warp-knit mesh, creating space for easy-to-reach gels or spares.
Tactica T5 Seat Pad
The Assos Tactica T5 seat pad is designed for off-road comfort with an 11mm Shock-Absorb Damping Mono layer that cushions against micro-shocks and vibrations on gravel and singletrack. Its goldenGate 2.0 design allows the pad to move naturally with your body, reducing friction, thanks to strategically placed cut-outs along the sides. Enhanced with 3D Waffle, a patented, three-layer perforated foam, the pad maximises breathability and reduces weight, keeping you comfortable and cool when taking on rougher terrain.
Features
- Type.911 is a silky-smooth, abrasion-resistant texture that provides stabilising compression in a deeper, fuller black
- Large thigh pockets for easily accessible extra storage
- Patented rollBar bracing design adapted from the Racing Series. Stabilizes the insert and locks it in place as your weight transfers while sprinting, climbing, and cornering
- A soft, highly elastic zeroPressure waist construction that improves comfort and holds at the waist, minus any pressure or pinching
- PILtec Plug-In: A lightweight, ultra-breathable textile band across the leg opening. The microdot silicone treatment is invisible from the outside but stabilises fit and maintains grip while wet
- Two triple-ramp thigh pockets securely stow ride essentials with easy access while the gravel or the trail demands full attention
- TACTICA T5 INSERT- Shock-Absorb Damping Mono: A single, breathable layer of 11mm of off-road comfort, engineered to absorb the micro-shocks and vibration of gravel and singletrack
- goldenGate 2.0: The insert is attached at the front and rear with floating sides and centre, letting it move with your body rather than against it. New cut-outs on the sides reduce volume and friction throughout the pedal stroke
- 3D Waffle: patented, three-layer, perforated foam that increases breathability and eliminates excess weight
