BEHIND THE PRODUCT
We saw an opportunity to increase comfort and decrease weight without impacting compressive performance or aerodynamic properties. Targeted increases in stretch and support let us further dial the aerodynamics and compression while reducing pressure on sensitive areas, and the new construction dries faster, limiting perspiration’s ability to add weight by soaking into the textiles.
TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
THE FINER DETAILS
-
FEATURED FABRICS
The woven Type.701kompressor textile is unique to the EQUIPE RSR S9 bib shorts. It’s defined by compressive support, friction-free comfort, and abrasion resistance—though it also resists UV rays (UPF 50+) and odor while actively cooling. Ossidia inserts complement Type.701’s compressive support with targeted stretch in sensitive areas, enabling a true second-skin fit without sacrificing comfort.

CONSTRUCTION/FIT
The fastest silhouette in our catalog, aeroFit maximizes aerodynamic speed while prioritizing comfort. It includes a slightly longer leg than bib shorts in our racingFit EQUIPE RS and regularFit MILLE GT lines.

S9 SUNDECK INSERT
An updated insert that’s lighter, increases cooling, and features a minimized footprint. The odor-resistant microfiber topsheet returns in the 3D basalt colorway, which pays homage to the lava stone that gives us with strength, stability, and courage.
Ultralight Xbib: Perforated straps hug the contours of the body, positioned exactly where they need to be for maximum support and breathability.
1 of 4ZEROWAIST: Laser-cut, bonded edge creates the smoothest, pressure-free transition between skin and textile.
2 of 4TYPE.701 KOMPRESSOR: Proprietary woven textile wraps large muscles with superior fatigue-reducing compression hold.
3 of 4Skin Grip: Laser-cut, bonded edge and silicone dot grippers fix the leg panels in position without pressure.
4 of 4Sundeck Superlight: A panel of soft, comfort-focused fabric in front of the insert increases airflow and eliminates pressure on the most sensitive areas, allowing a more aggressive fit across the shorts.
1 of 4Shock-absorb Damping Mono9: Compressive foam materials in a 9mm racing platform with 3D Waffle inserts to shed grams and increase airflow. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.
2 of 4goldenGate: The stitching pattern anchors the front and back but lets the insert’s body float, allowing the chamois to move with your body rather than against it.
3 of 4whirlKrater: Similar to kraterCooler, but with perforations strategically distributed throughout the insert and even in the foam layers themselves, creating a whirlwind of cooling airflow.
