Product Description
Our WorldTour short-sleeve race jersey, refined. The next-gen TARGA iteration is more comfortable than ever, combining aerodynamic speed and comfort that makes it virtually disappear when you’re in the saddle.
Originally developed as a WorldTour jersey, the RS S9 TARGA has been continually refined for dedicated cyclists who demand pro-tier performance. This latest TARGA generation retains the aerodynamic detailing of its predecessor while enhancing comfort and structural stability. Experience the excellence of Assos' top-tier performance, comfort, and quality every time you're in the saddle.
TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
FEATURED FABRICS
The jersey combines a body of miniCheck Tex—responsible for the signature ASSOS jersey texture—with a Stabilizer insert to anchor the pockets. The blend resists odor while promoting breathability and cooling airflow. Sleeves and pockets of Push Pull warp knit add a breathable, bi-stretch fit that wraps in stabilizing stretch. The textiles provide UPF 25, 30, and 50+ for the front, back, and sleeves, respectively.
CONSTRUCTION/FIT
The most aggressive, most aerodynamic, most compressive, and—simply—the fastest option in our catalog, racingFit is built for the WorldTour, so no start line is beyond its scope. The second-skin fit is restrictive while standing, but it clicks into place in the saddle.
ENGINEERING
Bonded seams:
We like our aerodynamic seams bonded, not sewn, reducing bulk, drag, and potential for irritation. A clean finish indicative of engineering expertise and meticulous design.
Triple Ramp Pockets:
Pre-structured to increase capacity and stability while loaded. A flap secures personal effects, and an earphone port in the right pocket keeps headphone or radio wires discreet.
Raw-Cut Sleeves:
Eliminating transitional ridges on the sleeves removes an aerodynamic impediment from the jersey’s leading edge. We omit restrictive taping for a truly lie-flat, unrestrictive finish.
