Over 30 years ago, Dainese invented the motorcycle airbag and started a revolution in rider safety. Over the years, other brands followed, technology evolved, airbags became recognised worldwide as the most important safety innovations ever developed for motorcycling.
Yet today, very few riders wear an airbag every time they ride.
Not because they don’t believe in protection. But because protection came with compromises. Too heavy. Too bulky. Too hot. Too complicated to use and charge. Too expensive.

But finally today, all of the above is not true any longer. Dainese changes the market once again with a breakthrough revolution and introduces Dainese Smart GO. The first airbag designed for every ride with the HIGHEST SAFETY STANDARD: Chest and back level 2 protection according to EN 1621-4 standard.
THE REVOLUTION IN A FEW FACTS:
- THE LIGHTEST AIRBAG ON THE MARKET:
Only 780 grams, almost half the weight of our lightest airbag to date. Its design allows full ventilation to fight hot days.
No more bulky feeling when riding.
Easy to carry and store when off the bike.
2. THE AIRBAG THAT MAKES IT SIMPLE:
Dainese Smart GO is the only electronic airbag you do not need to charge.
Powered by an ultra-compact power bank providing up to 72 hours of riding autonomy
Or powered directly by your smartphone. The same smartphone already in your pocket can help power the protection that may save your life.
No extra charger routine. No extra device to remember.
Dainese Smart GO can be coupled with a dedicated 15-litre water-resistant backpack. The backpack integrates seamlessly with Smart GO through an innovative magnetic attachment system. This will bring your riding experience on and off the bike to a totally different level.
Attach it in seconds. Remove it in seconds. Carry it exactly as you would any backpack.
For the first time, an airbag can disappear into everyday life. You leave home exactly as you always have. Your phone. Your backpack. Your two wheels.
Only this time, you’re also protected by the smartest rider safety system ever developed. Without changing your habits. Without changing your routine. Without even thinking about it.
3. FINALLY AFFORDABLE:
A complete reinvention of the airbag, from industrial design and patented technologies to full supply-chain re-engineering and smart manufacturing, has made it possible for the first time to develop an airbag that is not only SAFE, LIGHT, and SMART, but also affordable. At only 349€.
Dainese SMART GO not only comes at the lowest price ever, but due to its specific adjustable design can fit multiple sizes with just one product so as to allow more people in the family to use it with no need to buy multiple airbags.
For more than thirty years, Dainese has worked to make airbag protection lighter, smarter, simpler, accessible.
Smart GO is the result:
- 780 grams of lightness
- Powered with the smartphone already in your pocket.
- Integrated with the backpack that you would already wear.
- Level 2 protection for chest and back.
- Safety that adapts to riders, instead of forcing riders to adapt to protection.
- At only £329
The question is no longer: “Why should I wear an airbag?”
The question is: “Why would I ride without one?”
