Assos Cycling Products
Guided by a business philosophy that promotes only the highest standard, Assos is a brand synonymous with performance, quality and reliability and is extremely proud that every aspect of its goods, from design and research right through to key production, originates from its headquarters in Switzerland.
Rather than a complete overhaul annually, Assos continually refines its range only as necessary, primarily targeting the different demands of each of the four seasons in its design considerations. Assos further offers the ‘Assos Layering System’ or ALS - a concept that allows products from the range to complement and function with one another, in order to best accommodate changing environmental conditions.
Towards the end of 2016, ownership of the Swiss company changed hands with Black Diamond Equipment taking the reins. The change in ownership has seen a new direction for the upmarket clothing manufacturer with Assos aiming for gender-balanced marketing efforts, as well as opening up the brand to a broader range of cyclists by offering garments at lower price points whilst still retaining the quality they are so well known for.

These include; the Assos Textile Laboratory Lugano; Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design; and Elastic Interface Technology.
