Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 Airbag Vest

Alpinestars has been redefining protection for motorcyclists ever since the company was established in 1963, and today sees the brand launching Tech-Air® 5, the all-new, autonomous motorcycling airbag system. Tech-Air® 5 is the latest addition to the Alpinestars Tech-Air® family, which includes the Tech-Air® Race and Tech-Air® Street systems. Alpinestars continues to lead the way in active air-bag technology for riders and their passengers.

Features:

  • Tech-Air® 5 is a slim, self-contained wearable airbag vest that can be worn under any proper fitting textile jacket or Tech-Air® compatible jacket.
  • Tech-Air® 5 offers unrivaled upper body protection, keeping motorcycle riders safe by uniquely covering the shoulders, chest, ribs and full back.
  • Shoulder protection is critical in a road impact and riders’ shoulders are uniquely protected by Tech-Air®, effectively and efficiently minimizing the risk of the rider sustaining shoulder and collarbone injuries.
  • integrated sensors: Should the algorithm detect the start of a crash, it will deploy a protective airbag, with a maximum inflation time of 45ms.
  • The impact absorption while wearing the airbag results in a decrease of the impact force by up to 93% compared to a passive protector.
  • The system is also extremely easy to use, just zip up the vest, close the magnetic flap and you’re ready to ride.

Specifications:Technology:

  • The state-of-the-art Tech-Air® 5 vest comes with an active electronic system that features six integrated sensors (3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers) and a crash algorithm that leverages AI to accurately monitor when to deploy the airbag in the event of a crash. The intelligent crash detection algorithm has been developed together with the world’s top MotoGP riders, and Alpinestars customers, and includes over 2,000 crashes of data to accurately assess when to deploy a full airbag inflation before the first impact with an obstacle.
  • Tech-Air® 5 has Bluetooth connectivity and an accompanying Tech-Air® App, which uses the rider’s phone to display the system’s operational status, battery status and a detailed analysis of a ride.

Battery:

  • lithium ion battery has a battery life of 30 hours of riding time.
  • An LED display indicates the airbag’s operational status.
  • The system comes equipped with a magnetic micro USB charger.

I feel safe, but there is a room for improvement in future versions

I have been using it for 4 years, luckily I wasn't involved in any accident, so the vest was not triggered. In general I feel protected and safer, app works fine. My problem with the vest is the following, therefore I cannot give it 5 stars and am considering to switch to Dainese smart jacket (which is also not perfect): - I find it hard to put sleves under my jacket, probably I would need to size up with the jacket, but then jacket would not fit perfectly to my chest - it is very hot when there is 23+ C degrees, therefore you can sweat a lot in the sleeves which begin to smell, when driving in traffic I often unzip my jacket and vest as well to cool off, but than I am not protected at that time - no way to completely wash it, future versions should have removable airbag and main unit, I wash only sleves, other parts of the vest with wet cloth - very expensive to send it to service and it takes months to get it back (Dainese is quicker and cheaper here). I am considering to switch to Dainese Smart jacket v2 due to the reason it does not have sleves so it should be less hot as in Alpinestars and servicing is quicker and cheaper.

Excellent

I also use the TechAir race airbag system. Identical technology only with the difference that it can be used with other equipment from other manufacturers, which makes it very effective. Also, the application is simple and clear to use. It fits the body perfectly. I am waiting to use it during the summer period, when I will see how it copes with high temperatures. All praise for now!

Angenehm zu tragen

Ich habe mir die Weste gekauft, da sie anders wie viele Konkurrenzprodukte unter der Jacke getragen wird und den kompletten Oberkörper inklusive Schultern schützt. Im Sommer ist sie angenehm zu tragen man merkt sie nach ein paar Minuten nicht mehr. Jedoch ist das Steuerungssystem auf dem Rücken, etwas größer aufbauend, was bei den entsprechenden Jacken zu beachten ist.

Satisfied, one of the safest knight clothes at the moment

Comfortable to wear, easy to use, and it is very convenient to see the system information on the mobile phone Protection is reassuring The only downside is that the ventilation is not very good, and it will be hot in summer.

Ist kein Fehler!

Nach langem hin und her habe ich mich für die Alpinestars Airbagweste entschieden. Mit knapp 1,5 kg könnte man meinen sie stört oder es ist unbequem… Bei Hitze fließt Du dahin usw… usf.. Aber nein Freunde!! Keineswegs! Man merkt sie nicht und sie stört null!! Sie trägt auch nicht auf am Rücken… man sollte natürlich den Rückenprotektor aus der Jacke entfernen;))… naja, und die App? Da fehlt mir die Funktion des automatischen Verbindens. Oder ich kenne sie nicht…. Kurz um: Klare Kaufempfehlung!! PS: Auf eine der häufigen Aktionen bei FC-Moto warten, dann machst ein echtes Schnäppchen!!!
