Tech-Air? 3 v2 Canvas Vest - Black - XL
The Alpinestars Tech-Air? 3 v2 Canvas Vest is a fully autonomous active airbag system designed for motorcycle riders seeking comprehensive protection without external sensors. Its innovative design integrates six built-in sensors, including three accelerometers (one triaxial) and three gyroscopes (one triaxial), ensuring optimal crash detection in various riding conditions and even when stationary. The vest activates automatically via a magnetic zip closure, providing peace of mind during unpredictable situations. Its packable, lightweight construction allows for easy storage in backpacks, saddlebags, or panniers when not in use, making it a convenient choice for riders who value portability alongside safety.
Constructed from durable stretch nylon canvas, the vest features a ribbed bomber collar and elastic side panels for enhanced comfort and flexibility. The central zipper is complemented by internal magnet snap buttons that secure the chest bladder in place while riding and can be folded back when not in use for a streamlined profile. 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 allows attachment of gloves or other accessories, increasing practicality for riders on the go.
Safety and visibility are prioritized with a discreet yet visible LED display on the chest, featuring reflective backing for enhanced light visibility. The LED indicates the system*s operational status and provides haptic feedback via vibration, confirming when the vest is armed or alerting low battery levels. The vest incorporates Alpinestars' Pro 2nd Generation compact Electronic Control Unit (ECU), housed in a dedicated pocket on the upper back, ensuring reliable system operation across diverse weather conditions, certified to perform between -20?C and +40?C. The integrated lithium-ion battery offers approximately 40 hours of use and recharges in about four hours, supporting long rides without interruption.
The gas inflator housing on the lower back facilitates quick deployment of the airbag in the event of a crash, with the inflator canisters replaceable at authorized Alpinestars service centers. The electronic wiring, inflator, and airbag can be easily removed for maintenance or washing*the vest itself is washable once electronics are detached. Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity allows riders to monitor system status, update software, and review ride data via the dedicated Tech-Air? App, ensuring the system remains current and reliable. The vest*s modular design, advanced safety features, and user-friendly interface make the Alpinestars Tech-Air? 3 v2 Canvas Vest an essential piece of protective gear for modern motorcyclists seeking confidence and security on every ride.
