The Dainese Cyclone D-Air jacket is a clever piece of kit, which combines a standalone airbag system with the Dainese’s own D-Cyclone breathable and waterproof Gore-Tex jacket.
It’s a top quality jacket, made from laminated Gore-Tex fabric with cowhide leather inserts – and meets CE-level 2 classifications, thanks to armour on the shoulders and elbows, in addition to its innovative D-Air system. For comfort, it comes with numerous adjustment options, on the waist, neck, and wrist. Plus, there’s an anti-floating sleeve adjuster, and a fastening system to allow you to connect the jacket to your trousers.
Delving deeper, its D-Air system is essentially a piece of protective technology primarily aimed at motorcyclists which employs an intelligent sensor system to detect dangerous situations and inflate a built-in airbag in your bike gear. Clever right?
Focusing in on the D-Air technology, there’s two main elements that combine to keep you safe in the event of a crash – its heart and its brain.
HEART
The 3D Airbag is the heart of the D-air System. Ergonomically designed for maximum comfort, it features a microfilament construction that ensures uniform inflation for maximum protection.
BRAIN
The D-Air control unit monitors the sensor signals 1,000 times a second using a sophisticated patented triggering algorithm to decide whether or not to inflate the airbag.
