Aerobag is a protective airbag for cyclists that inflates around the rider’s body during sudden crashes and accidents. It is designed for professional cycling and high-speed racing.

The system is lightweight and breathable, causing minimal heat buildup. After an impact, it returns to its original shape, allowing the rider to continue if possible.

Aerobag protects the rider’s most vulnerable areas in serious crashes: Neck, Spine and back, Chest (front impacts). These areas are most often linked to severe injuries.

Nine high-precision sensors constantly track the rider’s movement, speed, position, and acceleration 200 times per second. When the system detects a crash, Aerobag inflates in under 100 milliseconds, instantly forming a protective air cushion around the rider.
