Airbag coverage on chest, back, shoulders, and neck provides upper body protection.
Alpinestars Tech-Air® Off-Road is a FIM homologated Airbag System designed specifically to handle the rigors of Rally riding and provide unrivaled upper body protection. Developed and tested since 2017, in the most grueling conditions of the Dakar Rally, the world’s toughest off-road race, the Tech-Air® Off-Road System offers the most advanced active airbag technology for off-road riding.
The Tech-Air® Off-Road System, with the active airbag inflated, delivers CE Level 1 full Chest and full Back protection, plus coverage to the shoulders, neck, and collarbones in the event of a crash. Built tough enough to tackle any terrain, the System comes pre-loaded with three Riding Modes; ENDURO, RALLY, and STREET, making it the perfect choice for every type of off-road and street riding.
The state-of-the-art wearable Tech-Air® Off-Road System is equipped with a fully self-contained, standalone system; 3 accelerometers (1 triaxial accelerometer) and 3 gyroscopes (1 triaxial gyroscope) are integrated into the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to provide the best crash monitoring performance and active airbag protection in a variety of dynamic off-road riding scenarios. No external sensors are required for the system to operate.
The Tech-Air® Off-Road System provides protection in ENDURO, RALLY, and STREET Modes including crashes against obstacles and loss of control falls (commonlyreferred to as ‘low-side’ and ‘high-side’ type falls).
• EnduroMode is optimised for low and medium speed trails where the User rides on unpaved surfaces like gravel, riverbeds, mud, and other natural terrain. Typically, these riding scenarios include several changes in riding directions, tackling obstacles and hills at lower speeds.
• RallyMode is optimised for fast off-road action on any type of terrain and recommended for riding characterised by longer straight sections with multiple bumps and different types of terrain crossed at higher speeds, unlikely encountered in typical Enduro competitions. Typical environments where these riding scenarios occur are mainly characterised by desert terrain (with dunes and sandy ground), gravel and open countryside settings.
• StreetMode is optimised for asphalt roads including situations in which the rider’s motorcycle is hit by another vehicle while stopped.
