Half the okes I see in Assos' that are in front of me I can see their crack. Yuchh! I either let them get away or get past them. And I'm not trying to be nasty. My questions are-

Are Assos's supposed to be seethru?

If not, do they get that way because of wear and the owners can't afford replacments after the initial outlay?

Do the wearers realise that their cracks are visible?

Why do the wearers with the seethru ones normally have cellulite? Gag...

Why have I never seen a hottie butt in an Assos, except for in their ad?

How do you tell the oke in front of you with the seethru Assos and a Yuch crack that the riders behind are bringing up not because of the pace he's setting.

And...and...

You haven't followed Eyecandy up Delta hill

[Yang]

Unfortunately not. But does she know?

INVESTMENT!!

Had to stand for a week after 3 days with my previous pair, and had no problem on the Epic with my Assos

[Brakkies Sport Fotos]

ouens julle wil my kom vertel perde drolle is vye.

 

Wat maak assos so special vir die prys?

 

Hoeveel tdf spanne ry in assos.

 

Dis die shammy wat die verskil maak , nie die broek materiaal of label.

 

Die ouens wat nou skielik so praat dat hulle voorheen nie kon sit na 'n ride, maar nou met assos geen probleme het, ... Hoe lank ry jy al fiets? Hoe lank is assos in die limelight?

 

As jy al die labels en trimmmings van droeke afhaa, en die gewone shop broeke (die top modelle) daar uitpak en se ry, sal 99% van julle nie die verskil weet.

 

Ek was gebore, maar nie gister.

 

Daai label is baie belangrik vir sommige mense.

Assos or Etxeondo....Etchys get my vote.

Presies en so is dit met alles. En wat maak 'n Cipollini hemp R2000 werd?

[bontie]

or Etxeondo....Etchys get my vote.

 

+1 - Read reviews by real people on www.alwaysriding.com or PM Etxeondo

[Underachiever]

Rode the 400 km Audax in my Anatomic (new orange chamois) - nil issues.

 

Also rode the Epic in Anatomic (red 100 miler chamois) - nil issues

 

Various MTB marathon in my Santini gel - nil issues

 

All of the above at least 50% cheaper than Assos.

 

No it is not worth it.

 

The hottie model is hot though!!

You know why? Because you have a saddle that fits your but. I've said it alot and will probably say it 100 times more. No shammy will make up for an ill fitting saddle.

[eyecandy]

My @ss still hurts, just less than with the other makes. So yip, still worth the money for me

chris_w_65, There is no truth in your previous remark regarding eyecandy.

 

Itys not true...Unless you put a picture on the hub as proof of your statement.

 

Till than, assos sucks.

I had a pair of Assos shorts handed down to me when I was 15, back in 1991. They were great shorts but barely known back then. Today they are still great shorts - overpriced, perhaps, but do they do what they say they will? Pretty much. If you buy them to look cool, you're in entirely the wrong sport for looking cool anyway, so then you are wasting your cash. Oh ja, and if you can afford it, it's not expensive, is it.

PS but my Etchys are still favoured over the assos. And I still wear my CapeStorm Club100 kit, although they do chafe a bit on the longer rides...
