How does a riding airbag work?Updated 7 hours ago

A riding airbag works using a CO₂ cartridge.

On mechanical models like the Twist’Air, a strap connects the vest to the saddle. During a fall, the distance between the rider and the saddle becomes abnormal: the pin is released, the cartridge is triggered, and the airbags inflate instantly.

Inflation occurs in a fraction of a second, ensuring protection is active before impact.
