50 YEARS.
ONE OBSESSION.
50 years of fast.
50 years of first.

Welcome to ASSOS A50.
GAME CHANGER
Until 1976 it was steel, leather, and wool.
But Toni Maier knew there was a better way.
Informed by wind tunnel testing and inspired by skiing, he went all in on fabrics from the future—creating cycling’s first modern Lycra short.
50 years on, ASSOS continues to redefine what’s possible.
SWISS SPEED ENGINEERING
