Alpinestars presents the second generation of its neck protection, BNS Pro:The BNS (Bionic Neck Support) Pro activates when the rider's helmet contacts the chassis during a fall, providing a clean and solid surface that immediately channels harmful and compressive energy from the impact away from the neck. It is designed to promote the prevention of neck injuries and minimize the risk of collateral damage.
This second generation features a new design, a revised chassis construction, and improved ergonomics.
- Construction made from a blend of polymers and fiberglass
- Lightweight and comfortable during use
- Resistance to temperatures below 0°
- Rear stabiliser promoting progressive force increase (PFR) and dissipating extreme energy loads away from the spine through the back and shoulders
- The chassis construction promotes interaction with the helmet during impact
- More adherent rear support
- Additional width to accommodate different helmet sizes
- Quick-release fastening system at the front for easy on and off
- Padding made from compressed EVA foam to distribute impact force over the largest possible surface area
- SAS (Size Adapter System) size adjustment system with supplied adapters
- Foam and laminated lycra padding kit: adjustable and interchangeable EVA foam padding ensures and facilitates compatibility between this protection and other body protection systems
