Difference btw Assos FI Uno and the FI.13 S2 Bibs?
I'm planning to get a pair of Assos bibs and am looking at the FI UNO bibs. How do they compair to the FI.13 S2 or FI Mile bibs? I've got a pair of FI Mile 1/2 shorts with the EI chamois. From the description of the FI UNO, it sounds like the chamois is different, maybe thinner? Does anyone have a pair of these?

I have all 3 bibs...
If you have the F1 Mille, go for the F1.3 S2. I find them slightly more comfortable for the long haul over the Mille's. The Mille's are suppose to be the long distance shorts, however I fit the opposite between those 2.
The Uno, I only wear if I'm MTBing or other, I find I don't like them as much as some of my other brand name shorts. The chamois isn't really thinner (that I can tell), just different.

I have the Uno bibshort and F1 Mile knicker. F1 Mile is definitely more comfortable for me.
FI.13 S2 insert is supposed to be better and improved compared to F1 Mile. Personally, I have no experience the FI.

seek and ye shall find.
here's an old post, that should answer your question:
F1:13 S2 - the best of the best.
the fabric is much better..more elasticity, more power, and of course more expensive.
leg seams and also the special V shaped flat stitching which "anchors" the chamois in place at the front.
chamois is amazing, less of it, but super shaping and work in the foam.

F1: equipes - the next best.
same as above but with the thicker Mille chamois.
_________________________
Mille: shorter leg, thicker chamois, made for the long haul
_________________________
F1: Uno - short leg, about 3 inches shorter (in Mediums) than the F1:13. Great short, but compared to the F1:13, a tad low tech.
