When you are climbing steep mountains in scorching hot weather, the last thing you want is to be irritated by a dodgy jersey.

Luckily, Assos has released an updated version of its Superlight Sleeveless model, a fantastic piece of clothing that will get you through those tough rides.

The cut of the jersey is tight and body conforming but not restrictive. Sizes come in the typical range so you can select the right one for your cycling needs.

An elastic net at the back of the jersey is designed for practical use and for increased ventilation.

On the shoulders and pockets a lightweight microfibre insert ensures strength is present without weighing you down.

Many riders also choose to wear this jersey as a base layer during the colder rides, because of its comfort and utility.
