    I like it.

    Dainese released this concept last year, but they seem to not believe rib protection is important. This seems to address that.

    Dainese also said their standalone vest was not for track use, whereas Alpinestars let you choose either the street and track firmware on their system. If they carry that concept to this vest, seems like a winner.

    How is the build quality on the Tech Air stuff? The last few pieces of Alpinestars kit I've purchased have been quite underwhelming quality-wise.

    It's also the first time I've noticed a manufacturer advise that your going to need to make sure there's a certain amount of room in the jacket, if it's not specifically Tech-Air compatible, for deployment.

    I've had mine (Tech air race) for a couple years and 0 issues with wear or otherwise.
