The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Leather Vest is a high-performance safety gear designed for motorcyclists seeking advanced protection combined with comfort. Constructed from premium cow leather with a softening process, this vest offers durability and a comfortable fit, enhanced by ribbed elasticated side panels that allow for expansion and flexibility. The vest features perforated panels on the upper chest and shoulders for improved airflow during rides, ensuring rider comfort in various conditions. A discreet yet visible LED display on the front chest indicates the system's operational status, incorporating a haptic vibration alert to confirm when the system is armed and to notify the rider of low battery levels. The vest's center zipper is equipped with internal magnet snap buttons that securely hold the chest bladder in place while riding and allow for easy concealment when not in use. Multiple storage options include two zippered hand pockets, two zippered chest pockets—one with a sunglasses channel—and an inner concealed pocket, providing convenient storage for essentials. The waist loop offers attachment points for gloves or other accessories, enhancing practicality. The Tech-Air® 3 v2 system is powered by Alpinestars' second-generation electronic control unit (ECU), which is housed in the upper back pocket, and features six integrated sensors—three accelerometers and three gyroscopes—that deliver precise crash detection across various riding scenarios, even when stationary. The system is Bluetooth low energy (BLE 5.0) compatible with the Tech-Air® App, allowing riders to monitor operational and battery status, perform software updates, and review detailed ride data via MyRide. Its integrated lithium-ion battery offers approximately 40 hours of operation with a recharge time of about four hours, ensuring long-lasting use. The gas inflator, located on the left side of the lower back, deploys the airbag in the event of a crash and can be easily replaced by authorized dealers and service centers. Certified for all-weather performance between -20°C and +40°C, the ECU seal-protection ensures reliable operation in diverse environmental conditions. The vest's electronic wiring, gas inflator, and airbags are designed for easy removal and maintenance, and cleaning should be performed with a leather cleaner if necessary. Seamlessly combining safety technology with functional design, the Alpinestars Tech-Air® 3 v2 Leather Vest offers motorcyclists a reliable and comfortable protective solution for every ride.
