PR: REV’IT! Releases Its First Airbag System

[advrider]

As one of the most prominent gearmakers in Europe, it was only a matter of time before REV’IT! released its first airbag suit. At this point, we only see the airbag itself announced, but we expect multiple lines of gear, including ADV suits, with this tech in the 2024 REV’IT! lineup. Note that this is using a design licensed from Alpinestars, which should mean potential bugs are already worked out—Alpinestars has been making this stuff for years now–Ed.

Press release

REV’IT! presents its first airbag: Avertum Tech-Air®

REV’IT! presents the all-new Avertum Tech-Air® airbag. As the brand’s first autonomous airbag vest, the Avertum Tech-Air® is a step forward in assuring rider safety as much as possible while simultaneously making sure comfort is always maintained.

Made to be worn under a regular riding jacket or suit, the lightweight and highly ventilated Avertum Tech-Air® boosts impact protection by deploying a large protective airbag in the event of a crash. Detected by A.I. and deployed within 40 milliseconds, the Avertum Tech-Air® offers up to 95% impact force reduction compared to passive protection – that is equivalent to 18 CE-level 1 back protectors.

With Avertum Tech-Air®, REV’IT! adds a whole new product type to its range of protective motorcycle clothing collections across the Adventure, Urban, Commuter, and Race segments. The Avertum Tech-Air® has been designed, developed, and engineered at REV’IT!’s Dutch headquarter in Oss to take rider safety to a new level in each of these rider categories.

A collaboration in rider safety

By utilizing Alpinestars’ tried-and-tested Tech-Air® air bag technology – a collaboration in rider safety – REV’IT! is able to offer a top-tier autonomous airbag vest that follows the brand’s guiding principles of integrating Design, Performance, and Innovation into every product that bears the REV’IT! name and Shield logo.

The Avertum Tech-Air® airbag will be available for purchase from official REV’IT! dealers and www.revitsport.com for Fall-Winter 2023.
