The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Canvas Vest offers advanced protective technology combined with versatile comfort for motorcycle riders. Crafted from durable stretch nylon canvas, it features a ribbed bomber collar and elasticated side panels, providing a snug fit with room for expansion during dynamic riding situations. The vest’s packable design allows for easy storage in a backpack, saddlebag, or top case when not in use, making it an ideal choice for riders seeking both safety and practicality. Equipped with a discreet LED display on the front chest with reflective backing, the vest provides immediate visual confirmation of the airbag system’s operational status, including low battery alerts through a vibratory haptic feedback system. The integrated Bluetooth low energy (BLE 5.0) connectivity enables riders to monitor system health and software updates via the Alpinestars Tech-Air® App, offering real-time insights into battery life and operational readiness. The vest’s electronic system, featuring the Pro 2nd Generation ECU, is housed in a dedicated pocket in the upper back and can be easily accessed for upgrades or diagnostics. The system’s lithium-ion battery provides up to 40 hours of use with a recharge time of approximately four hours, ensuring reliable performance on long rides. The gas inflator, located in the lower back housing, deploys the airbag in case of a crash, with canisters replaceable by authorized technicians. Designed to perform reliably in all weather conditions, the ECU seal protection guarantees functionality between -20°C and +40°C, and the electronic components—including the inflator and wiring—are removable for maintenance or cleaning. The vest’s washable canvas exterior allows for easy cleaning after rides, maintaining appearance and hygiene. Overall, the Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Canvas Vest is an innovative and essential safety device, seamlessly integrating technology and comfort for proactive rider protection.
