The lowly gilet can often make or break a ride, especially rides that tend to climb and descend during the shoulder seasons. When a shell is too much and a jersey isn't enough, having a light, packable vest is an essential part of your wardrobe and can add comfort and versatility to your racing, touring, and commuting. The TiburuGiletEquipe is a spring and fall cycling vest that you'll reach for on every ride. It's a lightweight, stretchy package where the front panels use Assos' TwinDeck double layer fabric with a fleece outer that draws moisture away from the skin so heat stays at your core. That barrier is reinforced with taped seams at the front to prevent road spray from soaking you. The rear of the TiburuGiletEquipe uses RXQ, an insulating two way-stretch, open-knit microfiber so it's breathable and fast-drying. A camlock zipper dumps heat on the climbs and the welded bottom seam prevents hem migration, keeping cold drafts at bay. The Assos fit is second to none, and the Advance Ergonomic Pattern Design helps this vest contour to your body without applying too much pressure when on the bike so you'll get optimal muscle compression, reduced muscle fatigue, and all-day comfort. The rear stabilizer panel keeps the tiburuGiletEquipe in place with a 2-way stretch material with minimal give on the vertical axis. This creates stable, high capacity pockets that eliminate sagging, and the Super Level triple ramp concept realigns the pockets for the most convenient access and ensures you don't yardsale your tube and ride fuel on bumpy roads. On the shoulders, Sens Tex fabric increases freedom of movement and ventilation. The shoulders also feature reflective piping that helps visibility for riding in low light, giving the vest visibility in each of the available colorways. Assos recommends pairing this vest with a short-sleeve jersey and a skinFoil baselayer if it's cool or forgoing the jersey and wearing the vest as a top layer over a long-sleeve skinFoil baselay...   read more
