BCA E2 MtnPro Airbag Vest

The Alpride E2 supercapacitor system stores energy in a capacitor rather than a lithium-ion battery, which makes it significantly more reliable in extreme cold. It charges quickly via USB-C or AA batteries and is not subject to the same airline travel restrictions as lithium batteries.

Yes, the vest is specifically designed with dedicated external carry points for your shovel and probe. This keeps your rescue tools organized and accessible without taking up space inside the 15-liter storage compartment.

No, the 1mm hard-shell ABS and PE foam protection is integrated directly into the vest's construction. This design ensures the protective elements stay securely in place to guard your torso against impacts during a slide or collision.

Yes, the vest features built-in integration points specifically designed for BCA's BC Link radios and Tracker transceivers. This allows you to keep your communication and rescue gear securely attached and ready for quick deployment.

Yes, because the Alpride E2 system uses a supercapacitor rather than a pressurized gas cylinder or lithium-ion battery, it is TSA-approved for airline travel. You can fly with it without the usual hassle associated with traditional airbag canisters.

The 15-liter capacity is optimized for essential safety gear and small personal items, rather than heavy backcountry touring supplies. It is best suited for riders who prioritize a low-profile, protective fit and keep their main supplies in a separate tunnel bag or sled storage.
