Assos TRAIL Liner Bib Knickers features
Quality
Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Tights. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Assos TRAIL Liner Bib Knickers.
The first thing is material. Looking at what Assos TRAIL Liner Bib Knickers is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.
Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Tights. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.
There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Tights. Brands like Assos are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.
Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Tights category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.
Comparing Prices
Price, as you would imagine, is the most popular reason for someone buying one product over another. It is the single most important factor in choosing the majority of products we buy. The same goes for Tights.
It’s at this stage of the buying process, when you’re looking at different options, that you should set a budget. Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

- Description: Assos TRAIL Liner Bib KnickersHighly flexible, superbly comfortable and with coverage over the knees, the Assos TRAIL Liner Bib Knickers sit sleekly under your favourite baggy mountain bike shorts. And integrated rear storage pockets let you stash essentials for your ride too. Starting at the top, the TRAIL Liner Bib Knickers feature the same super-comfortable construction as their highly-regarded TRAIL Liner shorts. High-stretch bib straps lay perfectly flat and soon disappear from your mind when the dirt-riding day begins. To the back, the Stabilizator V3 mesh panel lets you skin breath, boosting dryness and comfort on long pedals to the trailhead. Around the waist the AZPtech (abdomZeroPressure) waist construction is brilliantly flexible, letting you move and manoeuvre with ease while holding the tights nicely in place. Moving down to the legs, and here you’ll enjoy the flexible and super-soft feel of Assos Aerofit fabric. The open structure is again all about excellent breathability, and with built-in odour-control, you’ll finish your mountain bike ride as freshly as when you started. Push-Pull panels across the waist, lower back and back of the knees provides light and airy comfort too. And raw-cut finishes around the waist and at the leg hems give a smooth, streamlined fit. If you like to wear a loose-fitting mountain bike top then the Trail bibs provide easy-access storage space by way of their two rear cargo pockets. These pockets sit comfortably above the waistband and allow easy access to your essentials under your jersey. Ride light. Ride easy. Always have essentials to hand.
