Compatibility:
The Tech-Air® 5 vest is designed to be worn under any well-fitting jacket, bearing in mind that the jacket must be large enough to allow for the expansion of the airbag in the event of a fall. For textile jackets, this requires an additional 4 cm of space around the circumference of the body. For riders who wish to wear a sports leather jacket, Tech-Air® 5 can also be worn with Tech-Air® compatible leather jackets that have built-in leather expansion panels to allow the airbag to inflate.
Riders who wish to wear a non Tech-Air® compatible leather jacket must ensure that the leather jacket has an additional 4 cm of space around the the circumference of the entire chest.
Riding modes:
Tech-Air® app enables switching between STREET and RACE modes. The RACE riding mode may ONLY be used for driving on closed circuits and not for other rides.
