Sizing Note: Tech-Air 10 is best worn with a one or two piece riding suit - a leather suit needs to be Tech-Air ready or have 4cm of room in the torso and 2cm of room in the hips. Tech-Air 10 can also be used with textile jacket/pants combos, but not with a tight fitting belt.
Note: Read the entire user manual prior to operation.
Note: In the event of deployment of airbag, contact Alpinestars USA for west coast or Seacoast Sport Cycle for each coast. Detailed contact information can be found on the Instructions tab on the FAQ document on this product page. Pricing to repack the Tech-Air 10 is $199 USD per canister or $399 USD for canisters and bladder.The Tech-Air series of autonomous airbag systems by Alpinestars are custom tailored for your type of riding. Whether your goal is going fast, commuting in the urban cityscape or exploring the road less traveled, Alpinestars has a Tech-Air autonomous airbag system for you.
The Tech-Air 10 is a slim, self-contained wearable airbag suit designed to be worn under any Alpinestars Tech-Air Ready or Tech-Air Compatible leather suit, or any third-party leather suit with 4 cm of space around the circumference of the rider’s chest and 2 cm of room around the circumference of the rider’s hips. This additional space for the chest and hips is necessary in order to accommodate the inflation of the airbag in the event of a crash.
The state-of-the-art Tech-Air 10 System features 12 integrated sensors (3 accelerometers plus 1 gyroscope) to continuously monitor the rider’s position. An algorithm developed closely using MotoGP race data and data from over 2,000 lab-simulated crash scenarios determine when and how the system deploys.
The airbag has a maximum inflation time of up to 40ms (or less, depending on vest size). The impact absorption while wearing the airbag results in a decrease of impact force by up to 95% compared to a passive protector. Inflation time is quick enough to deploy the airbag before the rider's first impact with an obstacle.
The airbag has a battery life good for 24 hours of riding time on a single charge, and an LED displays the system status directly on the belt. Alpinestars includes a micro USB charger for quick recharging.
The system features Bluetooth connectivity to pair with the Tech-Air App, which displays the system’s operational status, remaining battery life and a detailed analysis of your session. Over-the-air firmware updates are also handled through the app.
