Crashed twice because I’m stupid and the Techair deployed and protected me. In one crash, I flew off of a cliff, 20 feet through the air, bounced off of my knee, flew another 5 feet and landed with my back against a stump. It felt like I sat down on a couch because of the air bag. I am a fan. I wish the repack wasn’t $200 bucks, but I guess I could stop crashing.

Great design. A little heavy

Haven't needed it to deploy, but it is easy to use and comfortable. I appreciate the greater range of protection (e. g. the shoulders) compared to earlier versions. I would prefer for it to be abrasion resistant so that it doesn't always have to be worn under an abrasion resistant jacket, but that's a minor issue.

It Works!

I bought this vest after reviewing a full jacket made buy another company and watching a few YouTube videos. Years ago I was riding a KZ1000 and I was hit by a semi-truck that was making an illegal left turn. I had been wearing body armour and I think that protected my rib cage and back. I decided to give this vest a try because of the area of protection that it offered. I know it works because it deployed when I tripped on a rock while getting off my adventure bike. I had expected to just fall on my back and get up embarrassed for being clumsy. However, when I was about halfway through my fall I heard a loud 'POP' and I felt the vest inflate. I hit the ground and it felt like I had just fallen back on a mattress. I was ecstatic to know the thing worked! I contact the support team and shipped it back for refitting. I had it back in a week. It did cost $180.Read less

Werkte prima toen ik onderuit ging op het circuit. Helaas wel lek gegaan, dus het was duurder qua onderhoud. Een minpuntje is dat het best lang duurde om te herstellen (een maand!) omdat men bezig was met inventarisatie in 1 van die weken. Zelfs zonder inventarisatie zou het ruim 3 weken geduurd hebben en dat vind ik erg lang. Als je praktische vragen hebt over het product, dan is de support telefonisch goed bereikbaar en je krijgt duidelijk antwoorden.
