Assos Tactica Kieskafer Women's Bib Shorts T5

The Assos TACTICA Kieskäfer Women’s Gravel Bib Shorts T5 redefine off-road performance with a lighter, more breathable, and more compressive construction engineered specifically for gravel and singletrack riding. Replacing the previous generation, this updated design integrates race-proven technologies from the road-focused Racing Series to deliver high-intensity stability and comfort beyond the tarmac.

The Type.911 textile provides abrasion resistance and stabilizing compression while remaining hydrophobic, fast-drying, and highly breathable—ideal for dusty gravel sectors and technical trail efforts. The rollBar stabilization system ensures the insert remains securely positioned during climbing, sprinting, and shifting terrain, while expanded thigh pockets offer greater storage capacity with easy access on the move.

For the T5 generation, the insert is refined with enhanced shock-absorbing foam to better mute trail chatter and repeated impacts, delivering improved comfort over long off-road distances.
