Tech-Air? 3 v2 Canvas Vest - Tan - Medium
The Alpinestars Tech-Air? 3 v2 Canvas Vest is a fully autonomous active airbag system designed for maximum rider safety without the need for external sensors or connections. Featuring six integrated sensors*including three accelerometers and three gyroscopes*this system offers superior crash detection across various dynamic riding conditions and even when stationary. The vest activates automatically via a magnetic zip closure, ensuring immediate protection in the event of a fall or collision. Its packable design allows convenient storage in a backpack, saddle bag, or pannier, making it ideal for riders seeking safety without sacrificing comfort or portability. Constructed from durable stretch nylon canvas, the vest includes a ribbed bomber collar and elastic side panels that provide both comfort and flexibility during rides. The center zipper, secured with internal magnet snap buttons, keeps the chest bladder in place and can be folded away when not in use, maintaining a sleek profile. Multiple pockets*including two zippered hand pockets, two chest pockets with a sunglasses channel on the right, and an inner concealed pocket*offer ample storage options. An adjustable waist loop enables attachment of gloves or other accessories for added convenience. An integrated LED display on the front chest, with reflective backing, indicates the system's operational status and features a haptic alert that vibrates to confirm the system is armed or to warn of low battery. The vest is equipped with Alpinestars' Pro 2nd Generation electronic control unit (ECU), located in the upper back pocket, which manages system operations seamlessly. Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 5.0) connectivity allows riders to monitor system status, battery life, and ride maps via the dedicated Tech-Air? App, which also facilitates software updates. The system*s lithium-ion battery offers approximately 40 hours of use and recharges in about four hours, ensuring reliability for extended rides. The gas inflator, housed on the lower back, provides deployment gas, with canisters replaceable by authorized service centers. The ECU's seal protection ensures all-weather performance, functioning reliably between -20?C and +40?C. The electronics are removable for cleaning, and the canvas vest is washable once electronics are removed, providing both safety and practicality for everyday riding.
