Many of you will recognise Swiss cycle clothing brand Assos from their, shall we say, “interesting” choice of advertising. Now’s not the place to get into the ins and outs of their strategy, instead we’re going to focus on their women’s 2013 season of high performance road cycling attire.

Assos have a well-earned reputation for high-quality, well thought through, technical cycle kit, with an equally well known price tag to match. We’re going to give you with a whistle-stop tour of their women’s summer collection and a hint of their autumn/winter range too.

Assos sit above the likes of Rapha and Castelli in terms of pricing, with their jerseys coming in at over £100 and bib shorts over £200. Wait no further, tantalise your retinas with a glimpse at the Assos women’s range and see what that kind of money gets you. There’s a full gallery of images on the last page, so you can see the details of the garments up close.

If you’re drawn in by the kit and want to try some on for yourself, find your nearest Assos dealer at Yellow Limited.
