The OFF ROAD detection mode has been specially
developed for developed for the Dakar. It allows to
follow at best the movements of the pilot in real time,
to analyze the situation and to detect the fall as soon
as possible to activate the inflation of the airbag.
However, for a more versatile use, and not only focused
on the rally, the vest offers two different modes:
Rallye/Enduro mode: the airbag is activated from 20
km/h to detect most falls.
Adventure/trail mode : the airbag is activated from
18 km/h and is more sensitive to fast movements and
movements and shocks.
Both of these modes also have a «sun» function that
allows them to inflate at low speeds on this type of fall.
The OFF ROAD provides 14L of protective volume
for maximum impact absorption and coverage
of vital areas and inflates quickly in 80 ms.
It integrates the CDU electronic card, the 2 OFF ROAD cartridges and the rigid
protectors. The sleeves of the jacket are removable (could be sold separately). It
also has a space to put a water bag.
It analyzes the situation in real time (position of the rider in space, movement,
speed, etc.) and detects accidents or falls. It incorporates a non-removable Lithium
Ion Cylindrical Battery 3.70V 2600mAh. It has 4 cables : a cable to recharge the
battery, two cables to connect the cartridges (locking connector) and a
cable to connect the remote HMI.
CDU electronic card must be used exclusively with OFF-ROAD airbag. You must not
remove it, use it outside, alone or in another textile.
RF characteristics: 868MHz -916MHz (0dBm).
GPS reception frequency: 1565.42 – 1585.42MHz (GPS) / 1602 – 1610 MHz (GNSS).
It consists of pressurized CO2 gas, a pyrotechnic triggering system and
a locking connector . The airbag OFF-ROAD is sold with two
new cartridges already installed and ready to use. If a fall or accident
is detected, the pyrotechnic triggering system integrated in the cartridge
will pierce its cover and release the gas that will inflate the airbag.
After the first inflation, the electronics automatically switch to the other cartridge if
it is new, and the airbag becomes operational again
They are integrated into the airbag jacket at the front, back, shoulders and elbows.
They absorb shocks and distribute the force of impacts. You must not use the
airbag if the pectoral and/or dorsal have been removed.
It allows to recharge the battery of the airbag CDU electronic card.
Please note : only the USB cable is supplied, you will then have to connect it to a
standard USB charger (5 VDC).

The OFF ROAD vest is wireless and easy to use. To turn it on or off, simply press the ON/OFF button located at the bottom right of the airbag vest 3 times, 3 beeps will sound and a green LED will flash.
The OFF ROAD has an autonomy of 25 hours. You can recharge it with the USB cable provided with the vest.
Do not machine wash, do not wash by hand, do not immerse in water or dry clean. The only way to clean the airbag is with a soft cloth slightly soaked in soap. Do not use detergents or bleach. We recommend that you dry them on a hanger in a dry place. Do not put it in the dryer, on a radiator or near a heat source. Do not iron.
The OFF ROAD vest is equipped with 2 independent cartridges. This innovation allows pilots not to have to change the cartridge immediately after a first inflation and to start again immediately.
The electronic system of this airbag switches automatically from the empty cartridge to the full one. The first activation is done with the left cartridge.
When both cartridges are empty, the airbag indicates this via a light and sound signal. It is then necessary to proceed to the replacement of the cartridges by following a very simple and fast procedure.
No, once it is used you will need a replacement. All replacement cartridges can be purchased from our canisters section found in the main menu.
The Electronic Airbag System technology developed by HELITE provides 360° protection.
The falls detected by the system are of two types:
