It was news when Assos, the Swiss brand of eye-wateringly expensive and perfectly-built cycling apparel, entered the mountain market a few years back. Though that debut was mostly what you’d expect: tight-fitting gear focused on roadies with hardtails. The fact that the company has entered the trail space and, more specifically, is offering a bibless version of its base-layer shorts, speaks to how important the dirt market has become. All of which is to say: I’m thrilled that I can get the most comfortable and refined pad available and it isn’t off-the-charts expensive. The baggy Cargo shorts and SS jersey are still a bit too Euro styled for the U.S. market, though it’s impossible to argue with the trim cuts and effective, proprietary fabrics that make the pieces move with you and keep you comfortable.

The signal booster is pretty slender, lightweight and already has hook velcro adhered to the back. The mating velcro with adhesive is included in the box if you need it. I found that the hook side actually gripped to the lining material of the trunk as is, so just found a spot up and under to keep this one out of sight for the nefarious types that like to peer into parked cars.
Not only are restraints one of the oldest forms of racing safety, they are also one of the most evolving pieces of safety equipment. The industry is always learning new things – not just about the belts – but the physiology of human bodies, how restraints fit on people, and what happens during a crash. The safety equipment manufacturers take all the information learned and apply it to restraints with the goal of building better containment and restraints.
