Inspired by Research & Development work with the brand’s MotoGP riders, IXON is reinventing the link between protection and comfort. You can push your limits anywhere with a product that can be used in all environments: thanks to its 5 fall detection modes, the IX-AIRBAG U05 is suitable for Road, Racing, Adventure, Adventure Pro and MX use.
Outstanding ventilation
- Airbag equipped with AIRFLOW CHANNEL technology: a unique and advanced ventilation system that provides maximum body cooling, with guided airflow in and out through 3D Mesh channels present throughout the back and chest areas of the liner, inside the airbag.
- Technology developed in competition, directly with IXON MotoGP pilots: Aleix Espargaro, Brad Binder, Miguel Oliveira, and Takaaki Nakagami.
- The choice of exterior materials also promotes ventilation: Hard Mesh on the front and back, ultra-stretch Mesh on the sides. Thus, the IX-AIRBAG U05 is 100% ventilated.
Comfort & Versatility
- An ultralight airbag designed for unparalleled freedom of movement and comfort.
- The choice of ultra-lightweight materials for both the interior and exterior allows for a minimal-weight airbag. The design has been carefully crafted to not hinder movement and provide perfect riding sensations. The cut is very close to the body, avoiding the feeling of bulkiness and allowing the airbag to be forgotten.
- The airbag comes with a specific IX-CONNECT kit for seamless integration of the airbag into a suit.
Customized Safety: 5 detection modes for tailored protection for every adventure.
- 5 fall detection modes integrated into the In&box electronic unit designed by In&motion: the airbag is suitable for Road, Racing, Adventure, Adventure Pro and MX use. Switching between modes is done with a single click via the My In&box mobile app.
- The IX-AIRBAG U05 integrates the only airbag technology offering 5 distinct detection modes: In&motion has developed 5 specific algorithms tailored to each of these practices.
- The IX-Airbag U05 meets the requirements of numerous national and international federations, including the FIM, and is therefore suitable for use in circuit racing, including MotoGP and JuniorGP.
- From September 2024, approval for motocross competition use is granted under the condition of association with the RACING PACK, an optional chest protection pack that connects to the airbag.
Protection
- In case of a fall, the airbag becomes operational and effective in just approximately 0.055 seconds, well before the initial impact: 0.033 seconds for detection time and 0.022 seconds for inflation time.
- Inertial unit composed of 6 sensors (3 accelerometers and 3 gyroscopes) that measure the rider's movements in real-time: over 1,000 analyses are conducted every second.
- Inflatable cushion covering 5 protection zones to safeguard vital areas of the upper body: neck, back, shoulders, chest, ribs.
- Next-generation inflatable cushion made of OPW material: up to 5 inflations before factory inspection, which is 2 more than the IX-AIRBAG U03.
