ALPINESTARS TECH AIR MX SYSTEM - WHITE

ABOUT:

Alpinestars’ Tech-Air® MX is an advanced airbag system engineered specifically for motocross and supercross riders. Since pioneering airbag technology for MotoGP in 2003 with the Tech-Air® Race System, Alpinestars has expanded airbag protection for across motorsports disciplines, with testing of the Tech-Air® Off-Road System by Dakar Rally riders beginning in 2014. Building on our expertise from MotoGP and Dakar Rally, Alpinestars began MX-specific data logging in 2016 with top athletes in AMA Supercross, Motocross, and FIM MXGP. This extensive research led to the creation of Tech-Air® MX System, featuring a sophisticated activation algorithm that provides precise and rapid airbag deployment in the challenging and dynamic environments that MX and Supercross riders encounter – such as ruts, berms, jumps and whoops—ensuring riders are fully protected in the sport’s most challenging and toughest conditions.

KEY FEATURES:

Multiple Riding Modes: Tech-Air® MX is pre-programmed with three Riding Modes, MX/SX, OFF-ROAD, and STREET, which have specific AI crash detection algorithms, giving users the ability to easily select the preferred Riding Mode on the LED Display located on the front of the System, or via the Tech-Air® App. MX/SX Crash Detection Algorithm: Alpinestars’ MX/SX crash detection triggering algorithm has been developed and refined with thousands of hours of riding data and crashes, allowing the System to accurately assess when to deploy the Airbag ahead of an impact or other dangerous situation—fully tested by Alpinestars Pro-riders, in extreme racing conditions, including MXGP, AMA MX, and Supercross training environments. Active Airbag Protection: Upon the detection of a crash situation, a protective Airbag is deployed, providing unrivaled protection to the rider with an average in ation time of 40ms, depending on the Airbag size. System Versatility: The Tech-Air® MX System can be worn over or under any properly fitting apparel with enough room to accommodate the inflation of the Airbag in the event of a deployment. Single Gas Inflator Deployment: A single gas inflator delivers one Airbag deployment for guaranteed protection. After the Airbag deploys, the gas inflator must be replaced before the System can be used again. The System has a quick-release cover opening that allows for rapid gas inflator replacement by users, only available in countries where gas inflator replacement by individuals is permitted by local regulations. Battery Life and Charging Time:The Tech-Air® MX System uses an integrated, certified lithium-ion battery, with a fully charged battery life of 30 hours and a recharge time of approximately 4 hours. Charging the battery for approximately 1 hour will provide approximately 8 hours of riding time use. Quick-Release Cover Design for Rapid Gas Inflator Replacement: System Activation/Deactivation: Activating the Tech-Air® MX is easy; simply attach the left buckle of the System to the Chest Protector, and an internal magnetic switch will detect the left buckle is closed and automatically turn on and activate the Airbag System. Removing the left buckle will automatically deactivate and turn off the System.

PROTECTION:

A fully self-contained, standalone system; 3 accelerometers (1 triaxial accelerometer) and 3 gyroscopes (1 triaxialgyroscope) are integrated in the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) to provide the best crash monitoring performance and active Airbag protection for a variety of dynamic MX riding scenarios. Proven to be more than 4 times as protective as passiveimpact protectors with the Airbag deployed. Average in ation time of 40 milliseconds, depending on the size of the Airbag. Increased Airbag coverage on the chest, back, andshoulders provides effective upper body protection. The Tech-Air® MX System is Category II CE Certi ed to the686/89/EEC European PPE Directive and a version of EN1621-4:2013, which guarantees impact protection performancewithin 40 milliseconds to 5 seconds of full pressure inflation. The Airbag is planned to be certi ed for up to 6 Airbagdeployments before having to replace it, provided the Airbag hasn’t been damaged in one of the first 5 deployments. The passive Chest and Back protectors are certified to CELevel 1, and have convenient, height-adjustable straps for a customized fit.
