To engineer the first protection-focused winter bib tights, we developed our IMPACTOR construction using a two-layer system that targets the hip panels. By adopting our ripstop dyneRope textile - and re-engineering our removable impactPads with a more flexible, breathable design - built-in abrasion resistance, impact protection, and frictionless ASSOS comfort is the new standard for winter's toughest conditions.
We recommend wearing the GTO for your longest cold-weather rides. Layer them under the MILLE GT Thermo Rain Shell Pants during extra cold, wet rides, and pair them with the appropriate jacket for the complete weatherproof capsule.
| Specification |
- The main textile is our proven OSMOS Heavy, ensuring maximum insulation with its brushed skin-facing side. The blasenSchutz front panel is made with OSMOS Light and a second overlapping layer of our perforated SPHERE Ultra Hole, where "micro holes" in our stretchy membrane-backed 2L softshell expel excess heat, while maintaining added protection from cold wind and road spray.
- The GTO straps and leg panels are constructed using our rollBar and one-piece Butterfly panel for proven stability. Each leg panel features our louvreTec construction, which tapers to the exact shape of your legs for a custom compressive wrap.
- zeroWaist: A raw-cut, tape-reinforced edge for the smoothest transition possible between the body and fabric panel. More comfort with less pressure.
- superFlat X-FRAME: A single section of elastic material - folded over on itself - forming a supportive X-frame that delivers limited vertical stretch in the rear.
- waterBarrier: Our Geoprene outermost layer at the bottom of the leg that repels water and adheres to booties.
- impactPad: New removable, flexible TPU hip pads that have a perforated surface to increase breathability and freedom of movement.
- MILLE GTO c2 Insert: Constructed with our proven stitch-free goldenGate side panels and reversed seams throughout for frictionless comfort. The front section features our new sunDeck superlight - successor to our iconic kukuPenthouse - made using an ultrasoft foam-free textile to form a preshaped cup that both supports the male anatomy and promotes maximum ventilation. The insert introduces our twin21 System made of three separate layers:
- microShock: 11mm of lightweight foam creates the foundation of the insert, relying on its proven shock-absorbing composition.
- filterFoam: 10mm of lower-density matrix foam is sandwiched between the microShock and 3D waffle to fully absorb microvibrations. Open-cell structure exhausts excess moisture.
- 3D waffle: This patented next-to-skin, 3-layer perforated foam increases breathability and eliminates excess weight.
