Alpinestars Nucleon Plasma w/Straps Black/White/Red Back Protector

Engineered for road riders, the Nucleon PLASMA Back Protector With Straps is Alpinestars’ lightweight motorcycle back protector. Extremely lightweight, it features Alpinestars’ Nucleon PLASMA technology: a viscoelastic, impact-absorbing material designed to deliver high levels of adaptability, breathability, and ventilation. Backed with a soft-touch textile coating, this ultra-adaptive back protector delivers the optimum balance of force dispersion, flexibility, and comfort.

Featuring an embedded Nucleon PLASMA long back protector with a composite semi-rigid thermoplastic central spinal zone on the outer back  for additional protection, the protector’s ultra-adaptive geometry compresses and extends to fit, improving coverage, airflow, and all-day comfort. Adjustable, removable straps provide stability and a precise fit when worn under Alpinestars motorcycle jackets and suits.

Key Features
• Impact Force Dispersion: Level 2 CE-certified back protector features a composite construction with a central semi-rigid thermoplastic zone on the Nucleon PLASMA back protector for greater force dispersion in a critical area.
• Nucleon PLASMA Protection: Nucleon PLASMA is engineered with a viscoelastic material that absorbs and dissipates impact forces while remaining flexible.
• Premium Ventilation and Comfort: The innovative PLASMA M design maximizes airflow and heat dissipation, with a soft-touch liner on the inner side for rider comfort.
• Optimized Freedom of Movement: Engineered for a balance of protection and mobility during riding.
• Customizable Strap Fit: Fully adjustable shoulder and waist straps for a precise, personalized fit.
• Removable Shoulder Straps: Shoulder straps can be removed to quickly convert the protector into a race-specific version.

Construction
• The Nucleon PLASMA Back 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.
• Ultra-comfortable soft and flexible Nucleon PLASMA viscoelastic compound delivers enhanced rider comfort.
• Highly breathable engineered structure and the channelled inner surface that allows air circulation.
• Constructed with a soft tactile inner liner for additional rider comfort.
• The adjustable side straps are equipped with a V-configuration to ensure the back protector has a performance fit that follows the curvature of the spine.
• The lightweight Nucleon PLASMA Back Protector is available in six waist-to-shoulder lengths to fit a wide range of body sizes.
