Description
Serious kilometres demand serious chamois. The Assos Equipe RSR Men's Bib Shorts S9 Targa is built for riders who push long distances on Indian roads — whether that's a 5-hour Western Ghats loop, a Pune–Lonavala training run, or a sustained Sunday morning group ride in Chennai's humidity. This is a bib short engineered around sustained comfort, not just first impressions.
Use Cases
Daily training. Padded chamois and supportive bib straps for repeated 2-3 hour training rides in Indian conditions.
Race day. Race-fit compression and aerodynamic cut for timed events and group rides.
Long endurance rides. Premium chamois and durable Lycra for full-day comfort on rides exceeding four hours.
Our Take
At Rs. 26,240, the Equipe RSR S9 Targa sits at the premium end — and earns it. The multi-density chamois holds its shape through India's punishing summer heat, while compressive fabric actively reduces leg fatigue on long climbs toward Khandala or Coorg. For Indian riders doing 100km+ regularly, this is the kind of investment that pays back in comfort and consistency, not just on race day but through every training block.
Sizing for Indian Riders
Assos uses European race-fit sizing, which runs close to the body. Indian riders — especially those with fuller thighs relative to waist — should size up for endurance riding. Compression should feel firm but not cut circulation. Measure both waist and thigh circumference against the Assos size chart before ordering. In India's heat, a slightly relaxed fit also allows better airflow during sustained efforts above 35°C.
Compatibility Notes
Designed for road and endurance cycling across all saddle types. Always wear without underwear — doing so defeats the chamois moisture management and creates friction. Machine wash at 30°C with mild detergent; hang dry to preserve elastic and chamois foam. Inspect chamois every six months and replace when padding compresses or thins noticeably.
Pairs Well With
Complete your kit with a moisture-wicking cycling jersey for heat management, quality cycling socks that wick sweat on long rides, a breathable cycling cap for sun protection, and chamois cream for rides exceeding 60km in Indian summer conditions. Free delivery on orders above Rs. 2,500 — cash on delivery available across India.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Assos Equipe RSR Men's Bib Shorts S9 Targa best used for?
These bib shorts are built for long-distance road riding — think 4-hour Western Ghats climbs, Pune–Lonavala loops, or sustained endurance training above 100km. The multi-density chamois and compressive fabric make them equally capable on race day and during high-volume training blocks in India's heat.
What size should I order in Assos bib shorts?
Measure both waist and thigh circumference and compare against the Assos size chart. Indian riders often find that thighs run larger relative to waist compared to European sizing assumptions — sizing up is common. For endurance riding, a slightly relaxed fit also aids airflow in temperatures above 35°C.
Will the Assos Equipe RSR S9 Targa hold up in Indian heat and monsoon conditions?
Yes. The quick-drying, moisture-wicking fabric is well suited to India's hot and humid riding conditions. During monsoon season, wet chamois can cause friction — so washing and drying thoroughly after each wet ride is essential. The chamois maintains its supportive structure even after repeated soaking and washing cycles.
How does the Assos Equipe RSR S9 Targa compare to mid-range bib shorts?
Mid-range bibs often use single-density chamois that compresses within months of regular Indian summer use. The S9 Targa's multi-density chamois and compressive fabric deliver noticeably better saddle comfort on rides beyond 60km. For riders doing regular long-distance training, the price difference pays back quickly in comfort and chamois longevity.
Is the Assos Equipe RSR S9 Targa worth Rs. 26,240 in India, and what warranty applies?
For riders regularly logging 100km+ rides, yes — the chamois and construction quality justify the investment compared to replacing cheaper bibs every season. Assos backs its products with brand warranty against manufacturing defects; contact Cobbled Climbs at the time of purchase for warranty details applicable to your order. Cash on delivery is available across India.
