Alpinestars BNS Tech-2 Neck Support

The Bionic Neck Support Tech-2 from Alpinestars is constructed from an advanced, high-performance carbon polymer compound and is designed to help prevent injury in a crash situation by dissipating and diverting impact forces away from the neck and spine. The BNS functions when the rider’s helmet makes contact with the frame at the moment of a crash, thus providing a clean, solid surface which instantly channels damaging impact energy away from the neck and on to the BNS. Featuring Alpinestars’ exclusive and revolutionary rear stabilizer for progressive force relief (PFR) the BNS Tech 2 is designed for use in motocross and off-road riding and offers a highly personalized and stable fit while incorporating innovative new features such as a new quick release locking system.

Construction:

• Frame construction promotes improved contact with helmet during impact, including a rear support edge that fits closer to the body, extra width to account for different helmet sizes and raised chest to reduce hyper-flexion
• New lightweight rear and chest padding with an updated chin-plate design
• Innovative quick-release locking system for rapid and efficient fitting/removal offers secure and convenient closure
• Compressed EVA foam compound padding to distribute the impact force over the widest area while remaining lightweight
• Resilience in low temperatures, the BNS Tech-2 performs at temperatures below 32°F (0°C)
• Reduced weight with no compromise on strength and rigidity

Safety Features:

•  Strap System can be worn over or under the jersey and incorporates a bio-organic engineering design for superb ergonomics
• Rear stabilizer promotes PFR (Progressive Force Relief) and dissipates energy loads by transmitting them across the back and shoulders and away from spine (thoracic vertebrae), and is connected to the frames via pivot key

Fit and Customization:

• The BNS Tech-2 is designed to provide a highly customizable, secure and personalized fit
• SAS (size adapter system) provides adjustable and versatile BNS fitment in size ranges XS-M and L-XL
• Lycra-laminated foam padding kits are adaptable and the interchangeable EVA foam pads allow compatibility with body protection systems
