Product information

Features

• TECH-AIR® READY: the GP Tech v5 is Tech-Air® 7x compatible
• Nucleon PLASMA Level 2 shoulder, elbow, and knee armor, with the GP DFS

The GP Tech v5 1PC Leather Suit is engineered and optimized for superior aerodynamic performance, with ultra-low levels of drag and increased stability, both in a racing tuck and when fully leaned over when attacking corners. With a heavy focus on ergonomics and freedom of movement, this suit enables riders to unlock and fully exploit the potential of modern sports and race bikes. Featuring a host of features directly derived from MotoGP, the GP Tech v5 incorporates an all-new racing pattern construction for an enhanced, adaptive fit, while still; delivering advanced abrasion resistance and impact protection.

KEY FEATURES

• Constructed from a blend of kangaroo leather and racing bovine leather construction for superior abrasion resistance, with dual leather layers in all the highest abrasion-prone areas including the elbows, forearms, seat, hips, and back.
• A bonded Kevlar® net provides increased cut, tear, and abrasion resistance, as well as significantly reducing heat transfer to the rider’s body generated from any friction during a slide on the asphalt.
• Enlarged stretch Kevlar® crotch panel for enhanced rider mobility, with an optimized stitching line shape for high levels of comfort.
• All-new upper shoulder and neck cut design features a smooth stitched line from the neck to the upper shoulder for maximum rider mobility, and reduced neck pressure when tucked in a racing crouch.
• All-new waist accordion design for elevated ergonomic and aerodynamic performance. Positioned lower for better function, but with no extra material, this panel features an innovative 3D pre-tensioned design with a 3D curve at the sides that enhances aerodynamic performance while reducing material bulk.
• The speed hump is designed specifically for use with Alpinestars S-R10 helmet for maximum aerodynamic performance when worn together.
• Strategically positioned silicone grip patch on inner legs for enhanced grip and contact with the bike’s tank.
• Equipped with Alpinestars GP Tech Knee Slider. Optimized for track use and featuring an anatomical design for optimal contact, even-wear distribution, and lighter weight, its slim profile hook-and-loop patch with strategically positioned v-cuts enables a more precise placement on the knee while also preventing material bunching, enhancing aerodynamic performance even further.

CONSTRUCTION

• Incorporates a racing cut for a more precise fit.
• Race grade leather construction for superior abrasion resistance further bolstered with an all-new design leather patch strategically positioned on the inner elbow.
• Extensive perforations for optimum airflow and breathability.
• An aerodynamic bonded layer backing on the upper arms and back flattens the material surface minimum drag while also delivering enhanced abrasion resistance and structural strength.
• Triple stitching on the outer legs includes a flat seam with dual stitching all the way into the suit for enhanced abrasion and tear resistance.
• Full-length suit lining incorporates integrated padding for further impact resistance.
• Extensive stretch Lycra inserts in strategic areas promote freedom of movement.
• Pre-curved sleeves with a flexible, tapered cut wrist design for superior range of movement, and a tilted zipper for minimum pressure on the wrist.
• Lightweight and breathable stretch fabric on the lower leg section allows riders to wear the suit over or under the inner bootie of an Alpinestars Supertech R boot.
• Mesh liner for enhanced breathability and comfort.
