The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Canvas Vest offers advanced safety features with a fully autonomous active airbag system that requires no external connections or sensors. Incorporating six integrated sensors—including three accelerometers and three gyroscopes—the system provides reliable crash monitoring across various dynamic riding conditions and even when stationary. The magnetic zip closure ensures automatic activation in the event of a collision, delivering peace of mind during every ride. Designed for convenience, the vest's packable construction allows easy storage in a backpack, saddlebag, or pannier when not in use, making it ideal for riders who value portability and safety.
The outer shell is crafted from stretch nylon canvas, featuring a ribbed bomber collar and elastic side panels for enhanced comfort and flexibility. The center zipper is complemented by internal magnetic snap buttons that secure the chest bladder during riding while allowing it to be folded back when not in use. Multiple pockets—including two zippered hand pockets, two chest pockets with a sunglasses channel, and an inner concealed pocket—offer ample storage options. A waist loop provides a secure attachment point for gloves or other essentials. The vest also includes a discreetly hidden LED display on the front chest, with reflective backing for improved visibility in low light. The display shows the system's operational status, vibrates to confirm arming, and alerts the rider to low battery levels.
Equipped with Alpinestars' Pro 2nd Generation electronic control unit (ECU), the vest features Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 5.0) connectivity through the Tech-Air® App. This allows riders to monitor system status, battery life, and ride data via a detailed map. The software is upgradable, enabling users to keep the system updated with the latest features. Powered by an integrated lithium-ion battery with a 40-hour lifespan and a four-hour recharge time, the vest is built for extensive use. The gas inflator, located on the lower back, supplies inflation gas for deployment and is easily replaceable by authorized service centers. All electronic components are removable for maintenance and washing, ensuring durability and convenience. Certified to operate reliably between -20°C and +40°C, the Tech-Air® 3 v2 vest combines safety, comfort, and technology for a comprehensive riding protection system.
