The ALPINESTARS BNS Tech 2 is a lightweight neck protection system designed for riding comfort, secure positioning, and impact energy management. Its advanced high-performance fiber polymer compound construction provides structural integrity and frame strength against heavy impact energies during a crash, while the bio-organic engineering design supports ergonomic movement.
The ALPINESTARS BNS Tech 2 features updated lightweight rear and chest padding, an updated chinplate design, and a rear stabilizer that promotes Progressive Force Relief (PFR). The stabilizer helps dissipate energy loads across the back and shoulders and away from the thoracic vertebrae, and connects to the frames through a pivot key. The frame construction also promotes improved contact with a helmet during impact, with a closer-fitting rear support edge, added width for different helmet sizes, and a raised chest to help reduce hyper-flexion.
The Size Adapter System (SAS) provides a customizable, secure, and personalized fit. Stretch fabric laminated foam padding kits are adaptable, while interchangeable EVA foam pads allow compatibility with body impact shield systems. A lightweight strap system can be worn over or under the jersey, and the innovative quick-release locking system supports rapid fitting and removal. Compressed EVA foam compound padding helps distribute impact force across a wide area while maintaining a lightweight design. Manufacturer part number: 6500019155XS/M.
