The Assos Revolution

This small Swiss company revolutionized the bicycle clothing world when they invented the Lycra cycling short in the late 70’s. Because of their impeccable attention to detail, superb craftsmanship and use of premium materials Assos is now the number one choice the world over for high performance cycle wear.
We first discovered Assos over 20 years ago. Since then we visited their factory several times, helped with designs and sold their clothing worldwide. We are proud to offer our customers the finest in cycling apparel, still made in the same small Swiss workshop for over two decades.

Prosline Summer Gloves by ASSOS
Our finest summer cycling glove. Anatomically cut for a perfect fit and outstanding comfort. Lightly padded Gertex palms absorb vibration and perspiration. The triangular patch has a little extra padding and a rougher surface to better grip your bar tape.
Check out the black loops on the second and fourth fingers. Those are finger pulls and make taking off sweaty gloves much easier.
Note the black terry cloth quarter panel on the lower half of the back of these gloves in the photo on the right. The soft and absorbant, terry panel extends to the thumb on the palm. It is perfect for wiping sweaty brows. No velcro closure is needed; this design fits snugly and provides excellent dexterity. ASSOS even added a padded wrist tab for greater comfort. Double and triple stiching at all stress points. Bright colors with black palms and trim will match any cycling outfit. Available with black palms and yellow, blue, black or red backs.

Wear and care...

We strongly recommend washing all cycle clothing by hand, in luke warm water and with Cafe Suds. Gently rinse with luke warm tap water. To dry, lay the garment on a large towel. Next carefully roll the towel and garment into a cylinder. Squeeze or pat, but do not wring. Let sit for 10 minutes, then unroll. Hang the garment inside on a clothing rack away from any direct heat source. Allow to dry naturally.
Extra care when washing and drying will reward you with superior comfort, durability and performance.

Branford Bike Online Catalog - Archival Edition
brought to you by the former owner of Branford Bike, Tim Brockett via his personal web site, TimsLife.Com
This is an archival edition of the Branford Bike web site from February 2006. Complete with product photos, prices, how to articles and technical specifications it is a treasure trove of accurate, detailed and historical information.

In July of 2006 Branford Bike was incinerated by a huge forest fire. No one was hurt but the inventory and buildings were completely destroyed. I witnessed the fire and stayed until the trees were burning in my driveway. At that point I hiked from Branford Bike, through the smoke and embers, down the mountain to my Jeep 3 miles away. I took photos and wrote about the harrowing experience so everyone could see what I saw. My insurance was generous and I later rebuilt my home and started another business selling books. Read the story here.

Branford Bike was a huge part of my life for over 30 years; June 1976 to July 2006. I enjoyed those years tremendously and Branford Bike was often a labor of love. I hope you enjoy browsing through the archival catalog. If your visit brings back pleasant memories please share them with me via e-mail at timbrockett@gmail.com .

If you find any printed Branford Bike catalogs, advertisments or flyers please scan them as a PDF and email. Or you may mail them via US Post to Tim Brockett, PO Box 1711, Emigrant, MT 59027. Eventually I will post them in a Memorabilia catalog section.

Many Thanks and Best Wishes,
Tim Brockett
