Alpinestars Bionic Tech V3 Protection Jacket Black/White/Red 2X, SKU 482-64482X

The Bionic Tech V3 Protection Jacket features ultralight weight, detachable floating Level 2 CE and UKCA Certified Polyhedron Hybrid Technology chest and back protectors and Level 2 Nucleon Flex Pro shoulder and elbow protectors embedded in a highly breathable, race-proven stretch mesh base layer, to offer riders unsurpassed levels of ventilation and superior upper body protection against impacts. Both the dual-zone chest and back protectors have a rigid central zone with a flexible soft compound around the perimeter and are backed by a soft bio-foam padding. On the chest protector, the flexible soft surround and the bio -foam padding works as an adaptive system that molds to the chest. The central zone of the chest and back protectors directly behind the highly perforated impact grid are completely open to allow for maximum ventilation. The chest and back protectors are securely held in place via adjustable shoulder straps. For ease of putting on and off, the removable chest protector features a quick release-lock magnetic buckle on the left shoulder while the lower securement is actioned via the adjustable V-belts which run through the ventilated rib guards. The V shape spreads the tightening force over a wider area of the back protector, resulting in a more secure and comfortable fit. The rib guards offer additional coverage in critical areas.

The Alpinestars Bionic Tech V3 Protection Jacket, SKU 482-64482X, combines a lightweight, highly breathable stretch mesh base layer with detachable floating Level 2 chest and back protectors. Its Polyhedron Hybrid Technology protectors feature a rigid central zone, flexible soft compound perimeter, and soft bio-foam backing designed to adapt to the rider’s body while maintaining impact protection and ventilation.

Level 2 Nucleon Flex Pro shoulder and elbow protectors provide additional upper-body coverage. Highly perforated impact grids and aligned ventilation apertures help channel heat away from the chest, while the anatomically profiled back protector is designed for flexibility and airflow. Floating chest, back, and rib guards extend coverage across key areas, with strategically placed EVA foam padding on the upper arms and chest for improved roost defense.

The chest and back protectors can be detached from the base layer for easier washing. A quick-release magnetic buckle on the left shoulder assists with putting the jacket on and taking it off, while adjustable V-straps at the back and lower forearm help create a more adaptive fit and keep the elbow protector securely positioned. The jacket also features a removable puck panel and elasticated pull tabs for BNS compatibility, as stated by the manufacturer.
