Assos bibshorts

Couple of years ago I bought a pair of Assos T FI.Uno_S5 shorts and although they were expensive (to me anyway) they've since proved that you get what you pay for. And are by far the most comfortable shorts I own.

However I'm not looking to buy another pair but of course they no longer sell exactly the same.

So, does anyone know which current Assos pair would be the nearest equivalent to those?

Thanks

    I've just noticed there's an Assos Factory Outlet website which appears to still be selling the very same bibshorts.
    Doh!
    And for less than £100! So I think I'll order a pair there.

    But I'd still be interested to know which current Assos bibshorts people think are equivalent.

    Thanks.
    I was looking at those and liked the reviews.
    I might give those ago.
    They're expensive but over the years I've wasted the equivalent (and more) trying to find an alternative to Assos!

    Thanks - I've just seen from their website that they reckon these are the "spiritual successor" to the Uno_s5.

  • I love Assos fit but I got some of the top bib shorts (£200+ new) and I was very dissapointed. I have tops, skin suits that are a superb fit.

    I used to agree with this, but then I got the T.Campionissimo...
