Helite Vented Air Jacket: TechnologyÂ
Large Airbag Volume: Helite airbags offer the largest volume of protection on the market between 17L and 28L. The unique shape of the airbag effectively absorbs shocks, protects vital areas and stabilises the body from your head to your coccyx. | |
Mechanical System: Reliable and easy to use system. Simply attach the airbag vest to the motorcycle or to the saddle strap if you are a horse rider using the lanyard supplied with the airbag system. The airbag inflates when the lanyard disconnects via the key ball mechanism. | |
TURTLE Technology: a SAS-TEC level 1 back protector was added to the airbag to distribute the energy from an impact over the entire airbag. This technology significantly improves energy absorption and reduces the risk of intrusion.
4 x MORE EFFECTIVE THAN A NORMAL AIRBAG Due to the placement of the back protector on the outside of the airbag this results in the energy from an impact being dispersed effectively & evenly. Tests from the external laboratory CRITT Sport have shown that the force distribution is 4 times more effective than with a regular airbag of the same size and the same shape. |
|
Reusable: Reload the canister yourself in less than two minutes. |
CE Certification & Warranty
CE certified airbag: All our airbags are certified by the ALIENOR CERTIFICATION laboratory, a recognised organisation that checks and approves personal protective equipment (PPE) for motorcyclists.
Guarantee: All Helite airbags come with a 2 year warranty as standard. You can extend this if you register your airbag within 3 months of purchase and have it serviced by us at the end of the first two years. This will give you an additional two years of warranty of the airbag. (Airbag Component Only – Encapsulating Jackets, Vests, Outers and Backpacks come With A Standard 1 Year Warranty).
In order to satisfy any of the warranties you must retain proof of purchase (e.g. invoice/receipt) and also proof that your airvest or jacket has been serviced as a minimum of every 2 years.

Had one for 3 years now.
In the summer only wear it with a T-shirt inside, it is vented enough to be comfortable to temps up to 34C (doesn’t get much hotter here in London)
Can’t imagine myself riding without one ever again, feels naked without it.
All my other summer (and winter) jackets have now become redundant. I used to wear a mesh jacket with the airvest on top, but this jacket is more neat and airflow feels the same.
I also have the ‘winter’ one.

Fantastic jacket which does all it says it does. I now have a cool and comfortable jacket which is safe and visible instead of wearing an abrasion-resistant, armoured jacket with an airvest over it and then some hi viz. Ticked all my boxes and money well spent on a hot, airless, long but fun summer ride. Well done Airvest, keep up the good work!
