The most advanced autonomous airbag system

Résultat de plus d'une décennie de développement en MotoGP™, évolution du système d'airbag racing de première génération développé par Alpinestars et du révolutionnaire gilet Tech-Air® Street, le gilet Alpinestars Tech-Air® 7x ou Tech-Air® Race offre une protection complète du haut du corps pour les pilotes sur circuit, en compétition comme en trackdays.

Le système Tech-Air® 7x ou Tech-Air® Race est entièrement autonome : il ne nécessite aucune connexion entre le pilote et sa moto, ni aucun abonnement, pour un confort, une liberté et une polyvalence ultimes.

When fully inflated, its airbag offers vital protection to the back, kidneys, chest and shoulders.

Its integrated dual cartridge inflation system allows it to ensure your safety twice without intervention: after a fall, the airbag will deflate and will automatically be ready for a second activation before needing to renew the cartridges.

Aussi, grâce à son micrologiciel configurable, le système Tech-Air® 7x ou Tech-Air® Race peut exécuter le programme Tech-Air® Street, adapté à un usage sur la route. Le gilet Tech-Air® 7x ou Tech-Air® Race doit être utilisé dans un vêtement Tech-Air® Compatible.
