Assos Women’s UMA GT Half Shorts C2 Long

With their flexible waist design, the Assos Women’s UMA GT Half Shorts C2 (long) give the perfect fit for those of you who prefer the flexibility of cycling in waist shorts. The 5cm longer than standard length adds coverage too.

While it may seem easy to make waist cycling shorts, the absence of bib straps for support can cause issues, with lesser shorts slipping, pinching and constricting. Assos have worked hard to engineer out those issues, with the Women’s UMA GT Half Shorts C2 (long) giving a beautifully secure and comfortable fit. 

It’s at the waist that this perfect fit is optimised. The forgiving zeroPressure design keeps the shorts firmly in place but not at the expense of comfort or flexibility. When you’re breathing deeply during harder efforts and adopting low riding positions this makes all the difference. You’ll also find a mesh waistband extending upwards, ensuring there are no revealing gaps between your shorts and jersey.

Endurance Fit and Feel

With a focus on long training rides, endurance events, indoor training, and everyday cycling comfort, Assos chose to use their Type.429 fabric for the UMA GTs. This highly functional fabric delivers a snug flexible fit to ensure you slip through the air with ease.

It’s also highly breathable, perfect for high summer rides and durable to resist the abuse of countless kilometres on the saddle. And with light compression, helps push back fatigue as your rides get longer, matching the longer days of summer.

Assos AEPD (Advanced Ergonomic Pattern Design) Regular Fit 

Finding the perfect harmony of long-ride comfort and smooth, flexible fit, the Assos AEPD Regular Fit is based upon Assos’ race models but it’s more accommodating of different shapes and sizes.

The comfort also extends to the leg grippers. 3.5mm in depth and using LYCRA® with woven silicone grip, they provide a secure non-bulge fit while giving a smooth and uninterrupted transition from shorts to skin.

Women’s UMA GT C2 Insert

With 9mm of cushioning and the ‘floating’ design of goldenGate location to move the pad with your body not against you, the Women’s UMA GT C2 pad is intensely comfortable, supportive and shock-absorbing. Compressive foam layers provide endurance-focused support on the saddle.

The 3D Waffle design uses a three-layer construction, with perforated foams to enhance breathability and airflow. Thermoformed shaping reduces ridges and irritation while the odour-resistant top sheet maintains freshness.
