Alpinestars Tech-Air® 10 Airbag System

MotoGP-Proven Protection for Road and Track

The Alpinestars Tech-Air® 10 is the latest evolution of Alpinestars’ intelligent airbag technology, joining the Tech-Air® Race, Tech-Air® Street, and Tech-Air® 5 systems. Developed from over a decade of MotoGP research, this slim, self-contained system delivers the most comprehensive protection ever offered by Alpinestars — covering the shoulders, chest, full back, and hips.


Key Features

Comprehensive Rider Coverage
• Protects the shoulders, chest, back, and hips, reducing impact forces by up to 95% compared to passive armour.
• When deployed, the system provides the equivalent protection of 18 back protectors.

Universal Suit Compatibility
• Fits under any Tech-Air® Ready or Tech-Air® Compatible Alpinestars suit.
• Compatible with most third-party leather suits that allow 4 cm chest space and 2 cm hip space for airbag inflation.

Easy Activation
• Simply zip up and secure the internal belt to arm the system — no cables or external sensors needed.
• Includes a wireless LED display showing system and battery status, mountable on the bike or forearm.

Smart Crash Detection
• Features 12 integrated sensors (three triaxial accelerometers and one triaxial gyroscope).
• AI-powered algorithm detects crashes with MotoGP-level precision.
• Airbag inflates in as little as 40 milliseconds, providing instant impact protection.

Dual Riding Modes
RACE Mode: Activates above ~60 km/h for closed-circuit riding, deactivates below that speed.
STREET Mode: Always active for road use, offering protection even at lower speeds.
