GP Tech v5 1-Piece Leather Suit - Red Fluo/Bright Red/White - US 46 / EU 56
Designed for high-performance racing, the Alpinestars GP Tech v5 1-piece leather suit combines advanced aerodynamics with superior protection and mobility. Engineered with input from MotoGP, this suit features an all-new racing pattern construction that enhances fit, reduces drag, and improves stability both in a racing tuck and when leaning into corners. The suit's aerodynamic design is further optimized with a lower-positioned waist accordion panel and an innovative 3D pre-tensioned shape that minimizes material bulk while boosting airflow and reducing aerodynamic drag. The integrated speed hump, specifically designed for compatibility with the Alpinestars S-R10 helmet, maximizes aerodynamic efficiency during high-speed riding, making it ideal for track use.
The suit's construction emphasizes durability and abrasion resistance. Crafted from a blend of kangaroo leather and racing bovine leather, it provides exceptional durability in the most vulnerable areas such as elbows, forearms, seat, hips, and back, reinforced with dual leather layers for added protection. A bonded Kevlar? net enhances cut, tear, and abrasion resistance and significantly reduces heat transfer caused by friction during a slide, helping to keep riders cooler and safer during aggressive riding. The strategic placement of leather patches on the inner elbows, upper shoulders, and neck, combined with a smooth stitched line from the neck to the shoulder, ensures maximum mobility and comfort, especially in a racing crouch.
Mobility is further enhanced by features like an enlarged stretch Kevlar? crotch panel, extensive stretch Lycra inserts, and pre-curved sleeves with tapered wrist design for a comfortable, flexible fit. The suit also incorporates an ergonomic waist design with a 3D pre-tensioned curve that enhances aerodynamics and rider comfort. For better grip and control, silicon patches are positioned on the inner legs, facilitating secure contact with the bike*s tank. The suit is equipped with Alpinestars GP Tech knee sliders, engineered for optimal contact, even wear, and lightweight performance, with a V-cut for precise placement and minimal bunching. Additional features include full-length lining with impact-absorbing padding, mesh liner for breathability, lightweight stretch fabric on the lower legs for compatibility with racing boots, and a high level of overall comfort and safety for track riding.
