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 Shorts – Cycle. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Assos FF1 RS Spring-Fall BibShorts.

The first thing is material. Looking at what Assos FF1 RS Spring-Fall BibShorts 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 Shorts – Cycle. 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 Shorts – Cycle. 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 Shorts – Cycle 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

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.

There are two different types of reviews, and we also recommend reading both.

1. Expert reviews – In the cycle industry there are loads of really reliable trusted resources for expert reviews. For example if you’re looking to buy a new bike, BikeRadar Bike Reviews are great.

2. Customer reviews – these are probably your best resource for information. There’s no finances or influence involved, they’re purely just honest reviews from customers that have bought and used the product. The reason we love customer reviews so much is because no matter if their view is good or bad, there’s a very good chance that it will be honest and unbiased.

Brilliantly Breathable. As cyclists, we are all acutely aware of those months of the year where temperatures are cool but full winter weight kit isn’t quite necessary. The FF1 RS Spring/Fall Bib Shorts deal with these conditions perfectly thanks to thigh panels in Assos’ heavyweight brushed-back Osmos Heavy material. Incredibly soft against the skin, the fleecy back holds on to body heat but its excellent breathability lets your skin breathe, preventing clamminess during harder, more intense efforts on the bike. With its warp-knit outer, Osmos Heavy provides compression and support of the muscles and encourages warming blood flow. At the crotch you’ll find double layer, windproof Sphere Ultra textile keeps sensitive areas protected from the cold and comfort levels high all day. Race Proven ComfortKeeping the shorts comfortably in place is Assos’ A-Lock Engineering bib design, featuring rollBar braces, creating a short that’s perfectly stabilised and holding the seat insert in the correct position at all times. Speaking of the seat pad, this is Assos’ EQUIPE RS Insert. In order to boost warmth, the ventilation holes from the summer version are removed but everything else remains – the superAir microShock foam, 3D waffle and goldenGate technology – making for incredible comfort on the saddle.With temperatures a long way from the highs of summer, the Equipe RS Spring Fall Bib Shorts S9 provide just the right level of comfort to combat cool weather.
