• A breakthrough innovation for the Tech 10 is the introduction of Alpinestars patented Frontal Flex Frame.
• Combining with the dual front and rear blade connectors, the
Frontal Flex Frame gives the Tech 10 a complete and seamless flexion
control system, from the foot shell all the way up to the shin plate,
offering high performance double motion control, preventing
over-compression and hyper-extension, featuring:
• Engineered frontal flexion control offered by a dual-density TPU
connector system, uniting the lower buckle plate with the upper blade
connector, buckle and shin protector.
• Engineered to ‘float’ freely between the lower and upper boot
construction, the Frontal Flex Frame acts as a shock absorber by
distributing energy across the boot frame while controlling forward and
rearward flex, progressively releasing force which dampens and absorbs
impact energies.
• Asymmetrical, dual pivot arms on boot frame.
• A unique feature of the Tech 10 is the ankle control system
developed in the outer shell construction, allowing natural ankle
movement, vertical compression control and improved impact protection.
• Asymmetrical medial and lateral double pivot system for improved
levels of flexibility and precision for both independent and
synchronized movement.
• The medial pivot arm’s higher placement reduces material volume in
the lower part of the boot, creating more space for the patented inner
ankle brace system to have free movement and improve control.
• Reducing the volume on the inner side also reduces abrasion, where
the boot is in contact with the bike and improves grip and feel.
• Redesigned dual density TPU rear blade system engineered to
prevent hyperextension while offering improved flex control and impact
resistance.
