Hey there, riders! Max here to introduce you to the Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 Airbag. This piece of gear provides exceptional protection for your back, shoulders, chest and ribs – in fact it’s been proven to offer twice the impact protection compared to conventional armour.
One great feature of this airbag is that it can be used with any air-bag compatible jacket or even an over-sized jacket. Its self-contained system doesn’t require external sensors either – making it incredibly easy to use.
The mesh fabric outer shell construction makes this vest lightweight and breathable thanks to its perforated zones throughout. The magnetic zip closure system also adds a level of convenience when putting on or taking off the vest.
You’ll know exactly when your airbag is ready for use thanks to the LED display located on the front hem which indicates airbag status. And if you’re someone who loves tech features, then you’ll be happy to hear about Bluetooth connection for the Tech-Air App that comes equipped with this vest.
Not only are its internals housed inside a Bionic back protector but it’s also ACU homologated meaning that it meets ECE R10-04 standards and can be legally used on roads.
The USB rechargeable lithium-ion battery offers up 28 hours of use after fully charging (which takes approximately six hours). Plus, Argon inflator cartridges are CE certified and firmware updates can easily be made via USB should they become available.
Most importantly though, in case of an accident, this airbag inflates within 25 milliseconds once a crash has been detected – providing maximum safety for you as a rider.
