The IJ.haBu5 is the first Campionissimo Series Insulator Jacket. It replaces the Assos series element 0ne RX jacket.

Description

Developed to cover early Winter riding Conditions IJ haBu5 is your second layer garment engineered to perfectly function within your ALS (Assos Layering System), complementing your Assos interactive base layer.

Technology
Focusing on the Assos core elements of fabric tailoring and know-how, the IJ.haBu5 represents the first of a new generation of Assos high performance Insulator jackets Featuring the New campionissimo racing specific pattern design and the STRATAGON family of extreme performance fabrics.

Engineering
With the creation of the new Assos Campionissimo line, Assos has re-engineered it's process of product creation and development. We are no longer constructing apparel In the obvious traditional way, Instead we have developed an Assos Specific method which takes a more scientific approach to how we create, develop, engineer and construct Assos apparel.

Construction
The iJ.haBu5 features 18 patterns, using 6 different textiles. The front chest panel, upper arms and collar are made of Assos Stratagon Light fabric (functioning as a wind block). The sides, lower arms and back patterns feature Assos RXQ textile (active breathable heat retention) allowing effective body temperature control.

The overall objective when designing the replacement of the element0ne jacket was to lower the volume and weight of the garment while increasing protection and comfort range. The "iJ.haBu5" weighs 40 grams less than the element0ne, and features a new airblock protection and additional performance enhancing details. The "iJ.haBu5" closes the gap and fits right in between the intermediateEvo and airJack.

Stratagon Light
Stratagon Light is able to respond intelligently to changes in climatic conditions and body temperature, it is an ultrathin 3 layer laminated fabric construction. It features the latest in membrane technology; "flexible barrier function". When temperature is low the membrane reduces permeability, meaning the membrane closes, which helps retain body heat.

As your temperature increases, the membrane opens to enhance the evaporation process, ensuring stabilization of your body temperature. Stratgon Light allows for proper body temperature management. The advantages and uniqueness of the new Assos Stratagon generation of laminated fabrics is that they get the job done faster and feature a lower volume to weight ratio than any other membrane textile currently used in cycling apparel.

RXQ
The newly developed RXQ fabric is based on the legendary Assos RX textile. RXQ is an active breathable, two way stretch. soft touch, microfiber insulator fabric.

The brushed fleece inner surface is a hollow micro Polyester blend featuring 3D air channel texture which creates a next-to-body micro air cushion. Air is an insulator; wrapping your body with such a structured textile will enhance and promote this function. Lowering the volume of the fabric while enhancing its push-pull performance improves it's body heat retention properties.

Review from road.cc

The Assos iJ.haBu.5 has the fit, comfort and lightness of a jersey, but the insulation and protection of a jacket, making it an ideal outer layer for chilly winter and spring rides. It's versatile enough to be a suitable three-season cycling top...The jacket is designed for what the company describes as 'early winter', but the quoted temperature range of 6 to 14°C probably gives a better indication of what that means...This jacket uses Stratagon Light windproof fabric on all the front-facing panels (chest and front of the arms) and a Roubaix RXQ everywhere else. The Roubaix fabric has a fleece waffle pattern, which provides insulation and means it's soft next to the skin...The two fabrics are thin and lightweight yet very breathable and insulating enough to make this a versatile top – it can be used in a wide range of temperatures. Just choose the appropriate baselayer, from a short-sleeve one for double digit temperatures and a chunkier long-sleeve layer for cold rides...Neither of the two fabrics used in the jacket is waterproof, but the front panels are water-resistant. They'll deal with a light shower...Where this jacket really impresses is in the fit. It's excellent. Assos has been making high-performance cycle clothing for a long time and it certainly shows. It's generous enough around the torso and shoulders so as not to be restrictive, and the length of the collar, arms and waist is spot on...Around the back are three regular sized pockets with two extra zipped ones. Together, all five provide plenty of cargo space for a decent length ride. It's always nice to have a zipped pocket to stash the house keys or mobile phone, and two zipped pockets is even better...There's an additional pocket on the right sleeve, which could be used to place an iPod, with the necessary holes and loops for the headphone cable...

In conclusion...

The iJ.haBu.5 is a versatile jacket. It provides enough insulation for all but the coldest rides, and it's breathable and light enough to work well into spring, with careful adjustment of your baselayers. It's an ideal three-season jacket and the sort that can get a lot of use throughout the year.

Assos iJ.haBu5 Jacket is rated 4.8 out of 5 by 29.
Rated 2 out of 5 by FussyBB from Lovely material but......... I eagerly tried this jacket on and things looked and felt good from the front but then I saw the back. I was only going to keep this jacket if aerodynamics were good. In other words not baggy but a close and comfortable fit. Hence I cannot fathom why the pockets are made so baggy, all 3. Ok I might be able to fit a lot in them but I want to keep weight down and the whole jacket to be form fitting. If you can live with the pockets, great but too much bulk for me. It has to go back and my search continues.

Rated 4 out of 5 by devonsteeper123 from Habu5 Autumn / Early Spring Jacket As with all Assos kit its well made using high quality materials, multiple panels, and an excellent fit on the bike. Assos do not recommend for use below 6 degrees. I would switch at that point to the full winter jacket Cento (racing fit) or mille (comfort fit), both are excellent. I like the Habu5 its a good jacket but does run a bit cold on the arms, especially in high windchill. But where it excels is on generally dry days at temperature ranges 8-14 degrees. It does shrug off water effectively like the habu tights, but is not 100% waterproof. And this is where it gets difficult because if you were only going to buy one Assos jacket the sturmprinz waterproof outer shell is a better all round jacket with greater versatility. Its 100% waterproof and with clever venting, 100% breathable. Yes it costs more but its like having several jackets in one. If you already have the other bases covered then I would not hesitate to buy the Habu5 jacket. But my own experience has been that this jacket is used less than my other assos kit. The falkenzahn gilet is the most used over all seasons, then the strumprinz outer shell, next in sub 8 degrees the full winter jacket and only then the habu 5. Local conditions dictate usage - so in wet, cool and windy Devon which about 8 out of 12 months the sturmprinz is my go to jacket. However for autumn / winter riding in southern Spain I'd want the Habu5. So as a slightly alternative perspective here. The product is a very good one - it all depends what conditions you mainly ride in. Global warming anyone ? - Keep it long enough and it could be your everyday jacket in the UK.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rjt75 from Assos ij. Habu jacket Wow, what a jacket. Extremely light and low volume, on first inspection I was convinced that it would not be warm enough but in 5'c temp. With only a base layer underneath I was very comfortable. Windproof panels on the front of the jacket are very effective, and the fit is absolutely spot on in the riding position. Excellent assos quality as expected, its the only jacket I now need.

Rated 5 out of 5 by PJRB53 from Outstanding product This product is assos - I would never buy anything else! It has an aerodynamic profile yet is comfortable and not restrictive. In the cycling position it molds itself to the body perfectly. Its fabrics adapt themselves to a range of weather conditions always feeling comfortable despite me working very hard in warm conditions and less so in cooler ones. Pocket storage easily accessible - able to store food tools spare tubes etc without feeling over burdened. Assos have, as usual, constructed a well designed item of clothing that is faultless

Q & A

Sizing

Hi, I am 96cm chest, so this suggest size small bang on. However, I am 174cm tall, which is in Medium size range. I am a short torso / long leg type person. Are the sleeves long enough to be suitable for me in size S?
Asked by: Seweryn
Id suggest going for the Medium. The sleeves aren't long but the small will be just that, small

Another sizing

I'm 182cm, 40inch chest and 69kn. Which size would fit best for a tightish aerodynamic fit?
Asked by: speedyleggers
For the closest fit for your height and chest I would suggest the large as this will give you a nice close fit. I hope this helps.

Is this jacket water resistant or just windproof?

Asked by: magoota
This jacket should be used for it's windproofing technology exclusively.

Temperature range

It says covers early winter but what temperatures could it be comfortably used in, would anyone wear this down to say +1 or 2
Asked by: SmilingCyclist
With a good base layer, wearing this in that cold weather would be suitable.

Sizing again

Going by size I'm 100cm chest which puts me at the tight range of Medium, does the sizing allow for undergarments. The large at 102cm maybe to big Weight 75kg
Asked by: SmilingCyclist
I can confirm that the Assos sizing is generally a tight or snug fit and large would be the better option for yourself.
