- I've had my Klim Ai-1 Rally Airbag Vest and my Klim Badlands Pro jacket for about a year, and my Klim Induction Pro jacket for about six months. What are my thoughts so far?

Thank you for the induction Pro review. That's the one I'm looking at as I need a mesh jacket. Thank you
Thanks for sharing!
Good review. I picked the Rally because it flows more air than the standard, I think because of the back armor. Very meshy and comfy when I wear it. A hint in hot weather is to wear an LD Comfort base layer under it. My Klim Induction is also AA rated, same as the Induction Pro. For 3 season jacket, I wear an Alpinestars Monteria because its really comfy to wear, waterproof, lots of vents and it’s AA rated with level 2 armor. Also has expansion for there tech air, which I assume works with the Klim vest too.
Interesting re the additional airflow the Rally offers. Having not ridden with the standard vest, I assumed the airflow through the Rally would be slightly less due to the additional chest armour. Also, thanks for the correction re the protection level of the Induction jackets.
I'm a Klim Fanboy, enjoyed the video 👍
These are actually my first set of Klim jackets I bought for myself. I had bought a Klim mesh jacket for my wife and really liked the quality.
So far I'm really liking them!
When you use the off-road algorithm, the vest is not as likely to deploy in a low speed get off, so the chest protectors are there instead. That way you don’t have to replace CO2 cartridges so often.
That makes sense. I don't have the off road algorithm activated anyway, so maybe removing the chest armor is a good idea.
I didn’t need the chest armor because I do on road touring, so I took them out. That made a difference in the airflow.
Ah, that makes sense. I don't really go offroading either, at least not voluntarily. Probably should consider removing the chest armour to see how much it changes the airflow.
