Held Evest Pro Electronically Activated Airbag System Black Grey

The Held eVest Pro Electronic Motorcycle Airbag Vest in Black / Grey 03 is an In&motion PERFORMANCE airbag vest for sport-focused road riders and track riders. Held combines an electronically activated airbag covering the back, neck, chest, ribs and shoulders with an included Level 2 D3O back protector, all in a ventilated vest designed to be worn beneath suitable motorcycle clothing.

Article 92470 is the higher-coverage eVest model, adding inflatable shoulder and rib protection to the principal chest, back and cervical-spine zones. Its lightweight mesh construction, front zip and anti-slip waistband help it sit securely while allowing cooling air to circulate.

Who Is It For?

This vest is intended for riders who want autonomous electronic airbag protection for road, track-day or competition use. It has a normal men's fit and should be worn under a compatible motorcycle jacket or suit with enough expansion space for the airbag. Correct sizing and outer-garment compatibility are essential.

Held eVest Pro Size Guide

Measure around the fullest part of the chest, around the waist 20 cm below the armhole and around the hem. These are Held's model-specific garment measurements, not generic UK clothing conversions.

Leave the expansion clearance specified by Held and In&motion when choosing the jacket or suit worn over the vest. If you are between sizes or unsure about compatibility, an in-person fitting is strongly recommended.

What Is Supplied?

• One Held eVest Pro airbag vest.
• One fitted inflator.

The In&box control module is required but is not included in the purchase price. It must be purchased or leased separately through the My In&box app and activated with an In&motion account, which involves additional costs. The airbag system cannot operate without an active In&box. Depending on the selected plan and riding mode, the module provides USB-C charging, automatic standby and up to 30 hours of battery life.

UK delivery note: this product cannot be shipped outside UK Mainland.

Product Questions

Does the vest include the In&box?
No. The vest and inflator are supplied, while the required In&box control module must be purchased or leased separately and activated through In&motion.

Can it be used on both road and track?
Yes. In&motion offers riding modes for different uses, and the eVest Pro carries FIM Racing Homologation. The appropriate mode, subscription and event regulations must be followed.

Can the vest be reused after deployment?
Held states that the system can be returned to service by replacing the inflator, normally in around five minutes. Follow the complete post-deployment inspection and reset procedure in the Held and In&motion instructions before reuse.

Is a chest protector included?
The airbag covers the chest and an optional Level 2 D3O CP2 Divided chest protector can be added, but that separate protector is not supplied.

Warranty

Held provides its standard two-year warranty. Held also lists eligible eVest products for an optional five-year warranty extension through registration; current terms, cost and eligibility should be checked with Held when registering.

Moto Central Fitting Guidance

Airbag fit is more exacting than ordinary clothing fit. Moto Central can help check the vest size, its position on the body and whether your intended jacket or suit provides the necessary expansion clearance.
