Half shorts or bib shorts?

The Uma GT Half Shorts C2 are Assos’s bib-free women’s shorts. Without straps, Assos anchors the fit with a stabilising elastic waistband plus a separate mesh top band that extends coverage and closes the gap to the jersey; the legs hold with a 4.5 cm silicone-free elastane band. The Short version has shorter legs than the Uma GT Bib Shorts. Assos pitches them for base miles and endurance rides on the road or the indoor trainer. If you want the insert locked in place by straps, the Uma GT S11 bib shorts have rollBar bracing.

What do S11, T5, C2, ST and 2/3 mean in Assos names?

S11, T5 and C2 are Assos generation names: S11 is the current generation of the Equipe/Dyora racing and Mille/Uma endurance bibs, T5 the current Tactica gravel range (Assos says the Tactica Kieskäfer T5 replaces the Mille GTC Kiespanzer C2), and C2 the earlier Mille/Uma generation, still on sale while stock lasts. Assos doesn’t explain the letters themselves. In our titles, “ST” means Assos’s Standard leg length (the Long version is 3 cm longer) and “2/3” is Assos’s spring-fall season code (1/3 summer, 3/3 winter).

How do Assos women’s bib shorts fit, and which size should I pick?

For women’s shorts and bibs, Assos sizes by hips: measure around the fullest part of your hips, then factor in your height, and check Assos’s chart in the size guide (XS is 80–86 cm hips, XXL from 115 cm). Assos cuts its bibs to mirror your body on the bike: it’s normal to feel the straps and fabric pull while standing, and the shorts “click” into place once you’re in the riding position. Assos uses the same chart for its racingFit and regularFit models.

Uma GT C2

Assos’s Uma GT C2 chamois (single layer), with Shock-Absorb Damping Mono, goldenGate and 3D Waffle.

Type.429

Assos’s daily-workhorse C2 fabric: flexible enough for a streamlined fit, breathable enough for summer heat, compressive enough to support the muscles and tough enough for countless kilometres.

C2 AEPD regularFit

Based on Assos’s race patterns but tuned for comfort with a more accommodating waist. With no bib straps, the waistband has a stabilising elastic layer plus a mesh top band that closes the gap to the jersey. The Short version has shorter legs than the Uma GT Bib Shorts. In Assos’s fit guide, regularFit is a balanced technical fit with moderately compressive fabrics: supportive without the tight feel of the Racing models.

Ultralight leg grippers

A 4.5 cm elastane band grips the thigh naturally, without silicone, for a smooth, ultralight hold.

Shock-Absorb Damping Mono (C2)

Compressive foam layers in an endurance platform. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation.

goldenGate

The stitching anchors the insert at the front and back but lets its body float, so the chamois moves with you rather than against you.

3D Waffle

A patented, three-layer perforated foam that adds breathability and removes excess weight (Assos).

Assos: measure around the fullest part of your hips, then factor in your height. Assos apparel is cut to mirror your body on the bike — it’s normal to feel bib straps and fabric pull while standing; in the riding position the garment clicks into place.

How to measure

Chest: around the fullest part, under the arms. Waist: around your natural waistline. Hips: around the fullest part. Keep the tape snug but not tight.
