Good jacket! and the price is good. Just be aware that once it is triggered, the airbag needs to be replaced (about 250 or so), unlike the other ones (like helite turtle for example) that just require a cartridge to be replaced

If it goes off, you gotta send it back to Dainese and pay $250 to refill it.

If you must go electronic, I'd go with the Helite E-Turtle. $30 refill and you do it yourself. And it comes with a full size CE level 2 back protector.

But I'll be sticking with my tether.

I have one of these Dainese air bag vests and will never ride without it. It's a fantastic design and I have seen examples where it has saved riders from much worse injury. Yes, wear a good helmet and armored gear, but this safety vest will give you far more protection for those unexpected accidents that could cause significant damage around your torso and back.

Been riding 30 years and never seen or heard of anyone using these. I suggest one spend $$$ on a good helmet, armored riding jacket, boots, and take a advanced riding class every few years.

Think of the cost of a night or more in the hospital. This air bag vest can surely prevent some (not all) those occurrences.

As an experienced rider (30+ years) I am an ATGATT advocate (all the gear all the time) and highly recommend this airbag vest, certainly more so than the tethered ones, which are not programmed to account for different accident scenarios.

You sound like someone who rides with a t-shirt and shorts with flip flops and a bicycle helmet.

In that case, yes it will save your life at 30 mph where you may be dead going 30 mph at a school zone.

No it won't save your life at 100mph+ driving like an idiot.

How is it in the dead of summer? I really want one but summer in SC is brutal since I ride ATGATT

Is there a sock version of this I can wear to bed so when I'm walking around nightstands or my metal bed frame I can protect my pinky toe?
