Alpinestars Tech-Air 3 Leather Airbag Vest - Men's Black Leather
# 6500124-10-xx
Alpinestars’ Tech-Air® 3 Leather Airbag System is designed to be worn over a motorcycle jacket, but can be worn under the jacket, as well, providing effective and practical protection for V-Twin riders, touring riders, urban city commuters, and weekend warriors who want to ride protected.
Featuring a main chassis constructed with premium softened leather, and waterproof ECU and electronics, the slim, self-contained System can be worn under a motorcycle jacket, including an Alpinestars’ Tech-Air® Ready jacket, or any leather or textile jacket, providing that the jacket has sufficient space to accommodate the inflation of the airbag.
The Tech-Air 3 System accurately assesses when to deploy the airbag ahead of an impact or other dangerous situation like a lowside or a highside crash. The system will activate the protective airbag in milliseconds depending on the size of the airbag. Once inflated, the airbag provides full upper body protection, keeping you safe by uniquely covering your full chest and back. The Tech-Air 3 features an integrated back protector pocket so you can insert a back protector (sold separately) for an additional layer of safety. An LED display on the front chest indicates the airbag's operational status and incorporates a haptic alert which vibrates to confirm the system is armed and alerts you when the battery is running low. Bluetooth connectivity to a Tech-Air App allows you to monitor the Tech-Air 3's operational status, battery status and detailed map of your ride.
