How does the BNS Tech 2 protect my neck during a crash?

The BNS Tech 2 works by creating a solid contact surface between your helmet and the frame during impact. When your helmet makes contact with the support in a crash, the carbon polymer compound instantly dissipates and diverts compressive forces away from your neck and spine, channeling them through the BNS structure instead. This reduces the load transferred to vulnerable cervical vertebrae.

What is the Progressive Force Relief (PFR) rear stabilizer?

The PFR rear stabilizer is Alpinestars' exclusive technology that provides graduated energy absorption during impact. Rather than creating a hard stop, it allows controlled, progressive displacement under extreme loads, which helps manage forces more effectively across different crash scenarios. This system enhances the overall protective performance while maintaining rider comfort during normal riding.

Is the BNS Tech 2 compatible with my motocross gear?

Yes, the BNS Tech 2 is specifically designed for motocross and off-road riding. It features a quick release locking system for easy fitting with MX jerseys and body armor. The carbon polymer construction is lightweight enough for extended riding sessions while maintaining structural integrity. For optimal fit, ensure your chest protector and jersey accommodate neck support systems.

How do I know if the BNS Tech 2 fits correctly?

Proper fit is achieved when the BNS sits flat on your upper back and collarbone area without restricting head movement during normal riding. The rear stabilizer should rest comfortably against your upper spine, and the front should allow your helmet to make clean contact with the frame during forward motion. Consult the sizing guide for specific measurements based on your torso dimensions and riding position.

Can I use the BNS Tech 2 for other riding disciplines besides motocross?

The BNS Tech 2 is optimized specifically for motocross and off-road riding due to its geometry and force management characteristics designed for these disciplines. While the protective principles apply universally, the fit and performance are calibrated for MX body positioning and impact vectors. For other riding styles, Alpinestars offers discipline-specific neck protection solutions.

Category 2 PPE - CE Certified Under EU Regulation 2016/425

Structural integrity and frame strength against heavy impact energies during a crash.
Designed to provide a customizable, secure and personalized fit with the SAS (Size Adapter System) for a versatile fitment in size ranges XS-M and L-XL.
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.
Frame construction promotes improved contact with helmet during impact – including rear support edge that fits closer to the body, extra width to account for different helmet sizes and raised chest to reduce hyper-flexion.
