Shop for the Assos Tactic Bib Shorts T5 at Escapa. These all-around bib shorts stand out for their design, durability, and high performance—whether you’re racing or training.
High performance on gravel and road routes: the Tactic T5 bib shorts are lighter, more breathable, and offer greater compression.
The most notable new features are the Type.911 fabric and the stabilizing rollBar straps—adapted from the Racing Series—which give this all-terrain model the high performance characteristic of designs for high-intensity road riding.
TYPE 911
The Type.911 warp-knitted fabric—a very soft, abrasion-resistant material—provides stabilizing compression and features a deeper black color than the previous model. It is also water-repellent and quick-drying, preventing moisture from adding weight to the bib shorts, and features odorControl and FPU 50+ properties. The pockets are crafted from warp-knitted K-Net fabric panels—a breathable mesh that offers good support and securely holds and stabilizes the contents.
Fit
The Tactic T5 model promotes greater freedom of movement and a less aggressive riding style than our racingFit cut: it combines an aerodynamic design with clean lines and a slim profile with a construction that remains comfortable for several hours and offers less restriction when walking.
CHAMOIS
The chamois, secured at the front and back, is left free at the sides and in the center, allowing it to move with you without resistance. New cutouts on the sides reduce both bulk and friction throughout the entire ride.
POCKETS
The two triple pockets with “flaps” on the thighs are perfect for safely storing essentials when gravel terrain or the trail demands your full attention.
