PROTECTION

AIRBAG PROTECTION

The airbag integrated into the vest absorbs shocks and stabilizes the body from head to tailbone. It offers optimal protection of the neck and cervical and covers the vital parts (thorax and back).

and the biggest airbag protection volume on the market: between 17 and 28 liters (according to the airbag size)

TURTLE TECHNOLOGY

Front and back body armours are integrated for a double TURTLE effect!

Impact forces are distributed over the entire airbag, significantly improving energy absoprtion and reducing the risk of intrusion.

ELECTRONIC TRIGGER SYSTEM

The e-GP Air airbag integrates the Helite electronic system. Easy to use, simply press the button three times to switch the system on or off.

E-CANISTER

The e-cartridge deploys the airbag in the event of a fall. It is easily and quickly installed and replaced by the pilot.

ELECTRONIC AIRBAG SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY

The CDU sensor integrated in the vest follows and analyzes the motorcyclist’s motion in context. In the event of a fall, it automatically triggers the airbag before impact.

AIRVEST COMFORT

ABRASION RESISTANT MATERIALS

Very strong abrasion resistance with leather (cowhide 1,2 mm) + foam to protect the airbag chamber. If damaged, the leather sliders on the back can be easily replaced thanks to the velcro.

EASY OPENING & ADJUSTMENTS

Easy opening with gloves.

Adjustment velcro and stretchy material to fit the e-GP Air nicely over any suits. We use a red velcro to show the limit to close the e-GP Air airbag.

AERODYNAMICS

Attention has been focused on aerodynamics with a space for the suit’s hump. Thus, the vest fits over any leather suit.

CUSTOMISATION

  • Bus, train, car:

No constraint. For electronic models, remember to turn off the vest when you take this type of transport with your vest.

 

  • Plane :

You may encounter some difficulties with the security services regarding the CO2 canisters used to inflate the airbag. According to the regulations (IATA Regulations – see download), you are authorised to fly with 2 gas canisters (the volume must be less than 200cc), in the cabin or in the hold. Even if the regulations allow it, it is possible that the security service or the airline refuses to let you board with it. We strongly recommend that you print the “IATA Regulations” and show this document to the security service or the airline during the control if they ask for more explanations. In any case, it is the airport security service and the airline that will make the final decision whether or not to accept the airbag on board.

Often each airline will have their own advice pages online, it is worth printing these out also as supplementary documentation.
