The Alpinestars Tech-Air 3 v2 Canvas Vest is a fully autonomous motorcycle airbag system designed to provide advanced rider protection without requiring external motorcycle sensors or connections. This black extra-small vest uses six integrated sensors, including three accelerometers and three gyroscopes, to monitor riding conditions and detect crashes across a range of dynamic situations, including when the motorcycle is stopped. The airbag system activates automatically through its magnetic zip closure, helping provide convenient, independent protection for street and touring riders.
The Tech-Air 3 v2 features a stretch nylon canvas outer chassis with a ribbed bomber collar and elasticated side panels for comfort and expansion. Its packable design allows the vest to be stored in a backpack, saddle bag, top case, or pannier when not in use. A center zipper and internal magnetic snap buttons help secure the chest bladder during riding and conceal it when the system is folded away. Practical storage includes two zippered hand pockets, two chest pockets, a sunglasses channel in the right chest pocket, and an inner concealed pocket. A waist loop provides a convenient attachment point for gloves or other riding accessories.
A discreet LED display on the front chest shows the system's operational status, while haptic alerts confirm that the system is armed and notify the rider when the battery is low. Alpinestars' compact Pro 2nd Generation Electronic Control Unit is housed in the upper back, and Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0 connectivity works with the Tech-Air App for monitoring system and battery status, reviewing rides through MyRide, and updating software. The integrated lithium-ion battery provides up to 40 hours of operation and recharges in approximately four hours. The removable airbag, wiring, and inflator housing simplify care, while the canvas vest can be washed after electronics are removed. Designed for all-weather operation, the Tech-Air 3 v2 is an appropriate fit for compatible motorcycle riding apparel and can be serviced through select Alpinestars dealers and certified Tech-Air Service Centers.
