Tech-Air 3 v2 Canvas Vest

Alpinestars Tech-Air 3 v2 Canvas Vest

Classic vest styling with an electronic airbag inside. The Tech-Air 3 v2 Canvas is designed for road riders who want chest and back impact protection in a practical layer for commuting, touring and cruiser rides.

Autonomous Airbag Protection

• A self-contained system requires no tether or motorcycle-mounted sensors.
• Six integrated sensors monitor movement for the crash-detection algorithm.
• Inflated full-chest and full-back protection provides Level 2 impact attenuation and Category II PPE certification.
• The magnetic front zipper activates the system; LED and vibration feedback communicate readiness and battery status.

Canvas Construction and Everyday Features

The stretch nylon canvas chassis combines mobility with a familiar workwear appearance. Choose Tan or Black. A sealed electronic control unit protects the electronics from weather; this does not make the entire vest a waterproof rain layer. Zippered hand and chest pockets, a sunglasses pocket and a waist glove loop keep essentials close. A rear pocket accommodates an optional passive back protector.

Battery and Connectivity

Up to 40 hours of operating time supports longer trips, with approximately four hours for a full charge. Bluetooth connects to the Tech-Air App for system information and software updates.

Size Chart and Layering

Measure chest circumference with a level tape. For over-jacket wear, measure over your riding jacket. For permitted under-jacket wear, measure over a base layer. These are Alpinestars' Tech-Air 3 size-guide measurements in centimeters.

X-Small and Small: wear over your protective jacket, as directed by the size guide linked to this model. For larger sizes worn underneath, the outer jacket must pass the manufacturer's expansion-clearance check. A jacket that merely zips closed is not necessarily compatible. Check the supplied manual and try the complete riding outfit together.

What Has Improved in V2

V2 supports Alpinestars' replaceable gas-inflator kit, including compatibility with model codes 6505125 and 6505225. User replacement is permitted only in authorized countries and under the kit's instructions; confirm eligibility in the Tech-Air App. After any deployment, inspect the system and follow the required service procedure before riding again.

Setup and Ongoing Care

Complete the manual's first-use setup, verify system readiness before every ride and keep the firmware current. Arrange professional inspection at least every two years or 500 operating hours. This street-riding airbag supplements appropriate motorcycle clothing; it cannot protect against every crash or injury.

For cleaning, follow the supplied model-specific manual and garment label. Remove the designated electronic and airbag components before any permitted washing; never machine-wash the assembled system.
