Description

Built for motocross and off-road trail riding, the Bionic Plasma Light Protection Jacket delivers upper-body impact protection beneath your jersey, with flexible Nucleon PLASMA protectors and breathable stretch mesh supporting freedom of movement and airflow throughout extended riding sessions.

Key Features

• Exceptional Comfort and Adaptive Fit: The Nucleon PLASMA Protectors in this jacket are designed for multi-directional pliability, the protectors mold to the body for a close fit, effectively dissipating impact energy to deliver reliable protection.
• Advanced Construction: The Nucleon PLASMA element in this protector is constructed from a bio-based viscoelastic impact-absorbing compound, with no less than 25% bio-based content and molded into a precision-engineered geometry. While the PLASMA material dissipates impact energy and significantly reduces transmitted forces through controlled material response, the low-profile PLASMA geometry is specifically developed to compress and extend with movement while supporting airflow through its channeled and highly-perforated design.
• Ventilated, Stretch Construction: The main chassis is constructed from a soft tactile, highly breathable, stretch mesh fabric for optimized cooling performance.
• Extended Coverage: Additional upper arm, collarbone, and abdominal area PLASMA padding for enhanced roost coverage.
• Convenient, Height-Adjustable Strap System: The jacket includes a removable strap system with height adjustment through a hook-and-loop panel on the lower back, allowing optimal positioning and comfort of the back protector.
• Premium Protection: Features removable CE Level 1 Certified Nucleon PLASMA Shoulder, Back, and Chest Protectors, for quick and easy washing of the jacket.

The wide-open underarm area provides freedom of movement and comfort.

Nucleon PLASMA protector construction
The Nucleon PLASMA elements are constructed from a bio-based viscoelastic impact-absorbing compound with no less than 25% bio-based content, molded into a precision-engineered geometry. The material dissipates impact energy and significantly reduces transmitted forces through controlled material response, while multi-directional pliability allows the protectors to mold to the body for a close fit. The low-profile PLASMA geometry compresses and extends with movement, with a channeled, highly perforated design that supports airflow.

Additional PLASMA padding
Additional PLASMA padding at the upper arms, collarbone, and abdominal area provides enhanced roost coverage.

Height-adjustable back protector strap
A removable strap system provides height adjustment through a hook-and-loop panel on the lower back for optimal back protector positioning and comfort.

Removable Nucleon PLASMA protectors
The jacket features removable CE Level 1 Certified Nucleon PLASMA Shoulder, Back, and Chest Protectors for quick and easy washing of the jacket.

Breathability

The innovative structural design allows the protector to be slim and to have a high level of breathability, as well as flexibility, due to the high percentage of perforation attributed to the "M" shaped design.

Comfort

The inner side of certain protectors are laminated with a smooth fabric which provides a soft and comfortable feeling. The fabric adds durability and prevents possible tearing of the viscoelastic material.
