Helite e-Turtle 2 Air Vest Hi-Vis Yellow

The Helite e-Turtle 2 Air Vest is wireless and electronically activated. It is a CE-certified airbag that incorporates algorithm technology into the vest, which analyses the user?s movements and automatically triggers the airbag to inflate in less than 80ms. Detection also includes loss of control and accidents where you may not separate fully from your motorbike. There is also an optional Bike Fork Sensor, which is capable of communicating with the vest and detects impacts (e.g. tree, wall, car), including when stationary at 0km/hr (e.g. impact by a 3rd party vehicle). It offers a Sastec 1621 Level 2 back protector on the outside of the airbag with an inner textile 3D mesh for superior airflow and comfort. The front fastenings are adjustable for the perfect fit with durable fabric construction. The e-Turtle 2 Air Vest has a multi-directional triggering system and reusable design - replace the CO2 canister. Made from showerproof material, it can be worn on any motorcycle garment, including race suits. Reflective detailing maximises visibility. Please note.
