Assos Skin Repair Gel - Natural Body Moisturizer for Normal Skin, 2.55 fl oz

By way of background, I ride between 10,000 and 14,000 miles every year, mostly on tarmac, but occasionally on dirt and or gravel. I give my gear a very good workout, and I ride in all weather conditions that can be found in coastal Northern California, including the 'extreme' cold of our local mountain at 4300ft (low 20s F, on the coldest days). I've owned every major brand of clothing, back to the mid 80s, and used many different cycling specific products. I prefer Assos, period. Nothing else really compares. As to this particular Assos product: I'm allergic to a lot of stuff, including most detergents, which makes treating skin irritations a bit scary, as many (most) products will increase rather than decrease the problems I'm experiencing. I have no reaction to this, and it soothes irritations that would normally sideline me. I also use Assos Chamois Cream, which helps to prevent the issues in the first place. In fact, using the Assos wash on my Assos shorts, coupled with the Cream and the Gel has increased the amount of time I can spend on the bike. Assos takes skin comfort very seriously, and while they are expensive, I figure a comfortable crotch is worth the cost. Switching out any one component of this system decreases my comfort. People comment on how little there is in a tube, but it's much like an oil -- you need very little to cover a lot of skin. The smell is unusual, not unlike vinegar, but not unpleasant. It works, I like it, and I'm not allergic. UPDATE: Just recently I did a ride where I climbed 5000m in about 200km. I'm not fast so I spent 13 hours in the saddle. When I stopped, my undercarriage was rubbed raw -- I could hardly even walk. I put just a small amount of the Skin Repair Gel on and the irritated area was okay by the morning, and after a second application, it was *GONE* by the next morning. I'm increasing my rating to 5 stars.

This skin repair gel is something I would recommend for alleviating chafe in sensitive areas. Works better than A&D ointment or zinc products like Desitin.

I ride indoors a lot -- hours daily -- which means sitting on a chamois with lots of perspiration in play. It’s hell on my skin. I wish there were a product that worked as well as this for me that wasn't priced like liquid gold. I haven't found it yet. But Assos skin repair hell is pretty dang magical. I have to say it's worth it.

I wish I knew what was in it. Also wish it was noted as not tested on animals. Some people say they have asked Assos and they said it's not. If you have saddle sores it does a great job of helping to heal a lot faster.

Works!

It's a little too good, so while it's very expensive, it's very valuable in tiny quantities. ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ 5/5 stars.

The product itself is great. I highly recommend it. However, the seller--awful. The boxes of gel arrived clearly torn up and old. The expiry was blacked out. This is a personal care product for post-cycling irritation. It does not work if it is old. I returned both boxes; however, the product should have never been sold.

I’m an avid road cyclist fond of long distance rides. Also I ride pretty much every day. Consequently I do get saddle sores from time to time. For the past week or two one has just been hanging on, causing discomfort and yeah a bit of pain as well. Tried so many things and found this gel in a google search. Ordered it. Arrived yesterday afternoon. Took a shower, then applied. Today I rode with zero pain. Actually forgot all about it. One day. That’s how long it took to work. I’m a fan now.

Wie von Assos zu erwarten macht das Gel genau was es soll, kombiniert mit der Assos Sitzcreme hatte ich auf meinen Fahrradreisen nie Probleme.

This gel repairs any damage done to skin through chafing within minutes. Also really good for general repair to dry skin anywhere on the body.
