{"product_id":"assos-ll-habutights_s7_no-insert","title":"Assos LL.habuTights_s7_no insert","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe great  thing about Assos cycling tights without inserts is that you can use them for  all sorts of other winter sports from trail running to skiing. The Assos  LL.habuTights_s7_no insert have the same great innovations as the version with  the insert, but then also have the added advantage of being useful in all  different kinds of activities.\u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n  There’s no  question that Assos likes to give you as many options as possible to fine tune  your outfit according to the variances in the weather from day to day. The habu  series represents the clima range that will keep you warm in cool to cold  temperatures without causing you to overheat. For much of the habuTights Assos  uses their RX Medium fabric. As the name suggests, it is a medium weight  Roubaix material that feels blanket warm while still allowing your body to  breathe and ventilate. Recognizing that your knees need a touch more  protection, Assos has put a double layer of the RX medium around the knee area.  To combat road spray and fall mists, Assos has added a WR treatment to help  shed the water. That doesn’t make these waterproof, just water repellent. It’ll  make a big difference in most moist situations, but if you think you’ll be out  in the rain for several hours, maybe you’ll want to throw a pair of the clima.X  sturmNuss tights on over these babies. The front of the tights around your  midsection makes use of Assos’ blasenSchutz, or bladder protection. In spite of  the name, this is an innovation you’ll be happy to have because they have  inserted a panel of their Stratagon windblock fabric in the abdomen and the  groin to keep that area warm and shielded from icy air daggers. Assos hopes it  will help you not have to pee as much on cold rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough you  have probably come to expect this from Assos, it is worth noting that the habu  tights are anatomically cut to ensure the precise fit while you are on your  bike. Most noticeably, behind the knees have a new construction that tapers  perfectly because they use multiple panels so that there will be no excess  fabric bunching when you are in your riding position.  Assos has also used the RX Light fabric for  this area since you don’t need so much heavy material behind your leg, which  will help your legs ventilate and keep from overheating. Assos has also  eschewed the ankle loop that has long been a staple of the tights. Instead, the  ankle cuff is kept in place using the same gummy material used in the s7  shorts. If you’ve had to stop mid-ride to readjust the ankle straps causing  painful pressure points in your shoes – underneath your rain booties – then you’ll  really appreciate this little nod towards simplified designs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDepending on  what you want to match the habu tights with on top, Assos has added a fine-mesh  rear pocket over the right hip. That way you can slip in a key and your id, for  instance, to be sure those important items are always close and safe. And the  rear legs have a large section of reflectors to keep you visible on those  inevitably dark and gloomy days. The Assos LL.habuTights_s7_no insert will  quickly work their way into your winter activities wardrobe whether you are on  the bike or any of your other favorite cold weather sports.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assos","offers":[{"title":"Block Black \/ XS","offer_id":43506704056364,"sku":"1114170-XS-Blo","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/7684\/9196\/files\/assos-llhabutights-s7-no-insert-2751843.jpg?v=1771302428","url":"https:\/\/ricycles.com\/products\/assos-ll-habutights_s7_no-insert","provider":"RA Cycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
