Why We Like The ASSOS TRAIL TACTICA Liner Bib Shorts HP T3

The ASSOS TRAIL TACTICA Liner Bib Shorts HP T3 take design hints from their Gearhead-favorite road bibs and turn them into a pair of bib shorts that are lightweight and breathable enough to go under our baggies on trail rides. The Polstar fabric is composed of a cooling, stretchy mesh and hydrophilic treatment to speed up moisture wicking, so we stay cool and dry all ride long. The new Off-Road HP T3 chamois helps absorb trail chatter and reduce irritation, while the removable ImpactorTec T3 hip pads give us some extra cushion for the occasional crash.

Best under layer bib for MTB

Familiarity:: I've put it through the wringer

Super comfy and breathable bib I wear under my shorts and top. Size medium fits perfect. I’m 6’ tall and weight 175 lb.

Pads disappear

Familiarity:: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Size Bought:: Large

Very comfortable, purchased two sizes larger than the suggested, because the Smalls were uncomfortably tight

Fit, comfort and finish of the bids and of the chamois is great , as you would expect if you are familiar with ASSOS (probably from road biking). The very nice airy mesh keeps you cool when wearing liner + baggy shorts. Fantastic padding on the upper thighs (greater trochanter): large coverage, removable, well vented and thin, super flexible and comfortable, but still CE rated impact protection, so you know it will actually do something. This protection pad (HP T3) is much better than the older style used in the ‘plain’ liner shorts/bibs. There is ZERO reason not to wear thigh protection with these. Storage pockets are another near must have for me, since my bike has in frame storage and a toptube bag, so a really don’t need a pack, just a few pockets on the longest days. The one big miss, not unique to Assos, but to all padded shorts/bibs: NO PADDING ON THE HIP BONE (iliac crest) ! Similarly, a protection pad over the sacrum would also be very useful. With a pad this flexible, vented and thin, adding some of that would complete coverage of your mid body, with no downsides. Plus, if you didn’t want it, you could always remove it.
