AlpineStars new air bag system

[Rogue Hawk]

It's here. They have some different variations, here is one. I like that the air bag can be detached and used in other jackets. They only catch is the other jacket needs to be enabled for
the bag to work. It would be better if it was stand alone so one can use it in most any jacket. I have the Helite Air Bag vest. It's bulky and uses a rip cord to deploy. A real dinosaur compared to this one.

I like the technology; just not that VERY scary price! :shocked:

Yes, its pricey. But it will adsorb more force than even the best professional hard armor. I am waiting for Dianese to offer their street air vest. The advantage it has over the Helite is that it goes off as soon as your hit. Helite won't deploy until the moment you are thrown from the bike. So it's possible you will endure an initial hit without it.

It's not in the US yet. I guess they like to experiment on Europeans first

Do we dare say, that Europeans are more expendable? :dontknow: :joke::joke::joke:
