Italian leather giant Dainese has launched a new head-to-toe safety system for motorcycle racing. It includes the AGV Pitsa GP R helmet and the Dainese Mugello R D-air® racing suit, and is said to advance safety technology. Working closely together with MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi, the outfit introduces several state-of-the-art technologies and innovations, conceived by the Dainese Science and Research Centre.
The racing suit introduces more than 25 new features and several pioneering innovations leading to five new patents. The D-air® platform has been implemented to extend the area covered by the airbag: from the neck, shoulders and collarbones, to the lower sides of the rib cage. The suit features a redesigned and seamless-integrated LED interface, as well as a patented Intelligent Emergency Lighting System directly triggered by the sophisticated D-air® algorithm.
The Mugello R D-air racing suit will be introduced in two color options from April 2017 starting from £3399.95.
The Pista GP R will be available from November (2016) from £1011.95.
