ASSOS—World top cycling cloth brand came to an agreement with Ranking for their Double Brand Programme on April 2^nd. This programme will enable ASSOS to purchase helmets with ASSOS RANKING Double Brand logo for its global markets.

      Assos are one of the world's pioneers and specialists in producing high quality cycling clothes and accessories. They are located in a region of Switzerland that has maintained a long standing tradition in first class textile engineering. In the 1970's, Toni Maier-Moussa, founder and chairman of Assos accidently invented lycra cycling clothing, whilst trying to create the ultimate bicycle. During the wind tunnel tests of the first ever carbon-fibre bike, Toni inadvertently found that lycra downhill ski racing suits had much less drag than the woolen-knitted cycling clothes of the time. To this day Assos firmly believe in total product competence, delivering optimum functionand comfort, by researching and making its cycling clothing and accessories from the very best materials.
