Ixon presents its IX-AIRBAG U05 airbag. Inspired by Research & Development work with MotoGP riders, IXON reinvents the link between protection and comfort.
Product details :
Ventilation
Airbag equipped with AIRFLOW CHANNEL technology: a unique, advanced ventilation system offering maximum cooling of the body, with air flow guided in and out thanks to 3D Mesh channels along the entire back and torso of the lining inside the airbag.
Technology developed in competition, directly with IXON MotoGP riders: Aleix Espargaro, Brad Binder, Miguel Oliveira and Takaaki Nakagami.
The choice of outer materials also favours ventilation: in addition to the Ripstop ST4 sections, the Hard Mesh zones on the front and back and the Ultra Stretch Mesh zones on the sides are 100% ventilated fabric zones
Comfort
The choice of ultra-light materials for the interior and exterior means that the airbag weighs as little as possible.
The design has been developed so as not to impede movement and to offer a perfect riding sensation.
The cut is very close to the body, avoiding the feeling of a bulky layer and allowing the airbag to blend into the background.
Airbag supplied with specific IX-CONNECT kit for perfect insertion of the airbag into the suit
Observed weight in size M: 2250gr
Electronic system
3 fall detection modes built into the In&box electronic box designed by In&motion: the airbag is suitable for Road, Racing and Adventure use.
Switching from one mode to the other is just a click away via the My In&box mobile application.
The IX-AIRBAG U05 incorporates the only airbag technology offering 3 distinct detection modes: In&motion has developed 3 very specific algorithms for each of these practices.
Approved by various national federations in Europe and by the FIM: for use in circuit racing, in national and international championships, including MotoGP.
Approved for use in motocross competition when combined with the RACING PACK, an optional chest protector pack that connects to the airbag
Protections
In the event of a fall, the airbag is operational and effective in just 0.055 seconds, well before the first impact: 0.033 s detection time + 0.022 s inflation time.
Inertial measurement system comprising 6 sensors (3 accelerometers and 3 gyroscopes) that measure the rider's movements in real time: more than 1,000 analyses are carried out every second.

Latest-generation OPW airbag: up to 5 inflations before a factory check, i.e. 2 more inflations than the IX-AIRBAG U03.
