Training Mat 2
Protect floor from stain and reduce vibration
What we usually worry when using trainer at home are 1) splotching the floor or carpet by sweat and 2) noise & vibration.
Noise and vibration are the most serious issues to neighbors, especially if you live in an apartment house.
Training Mat 2 is the solution to solve these problems.
The PVC mat length is over 1.7 meter to fully cover your bike in order to protect the floor and carpet from your sweat and stain by the rubber feet.
The thick pad area is made of special urethane foam to absorb the vibration to floor up to 75%. It is good to solve the noise problem to your next rooms and downstairs.
The pad area covers most trainer sizes.
Unfortunately, rollers is longer than the pad area. So you need to put the optional Extra Pads underneath each leg. This pad is made of same material of the mat's pad.
Training Mat 2
Protecting Floor
Against sweat & stain
You cannot expect to get wind for cooling down your body while indoor training, so you must get sweaty very quickly. Even 5 minutes training make you sweat a lot and it will drop to the floor and carpet.
Sweat contains waste material and ammonia rather than saline matter, so once sweat adheres the floor, it will cause bad smell later. To keep your living circumstance clean and comfortable to make your family happy, you need to protect the floor and carpet from those materials.
There is another purpose on this mat.
Our foot cap is made of elastomer (a kind of black rubber) and the trainer vibrates at all time while training, so it could be possible to stain the floor that may be difficult to remove.
Be careful on using on wooden floor material with clear coat. Foot cap could chemically change the floor color where it touches.
The base mat area of Training Mat 2 is made of vinyl, so it is quite easy to wipe out the dirt.
However, please be careful about the urethane foam pad area when cleaning it. It has high water-absorbability and it's necessary several days to be dried completely once it absorbs water. You should not apply any water to this pad area.
Reducing Noise
Cutting vibration
There are two types of noise occurred from trainer; 1) direct noise from resistance unit, and 2) carried noise by vibration. Vibration reaches much further than we usually expect.
The direct noise cannot be muffled and it is depends on the trainer itself, but the vibration can be solved. Noise often cause unnecessary troubles with neighbors, so it's essential to cut vibration to make everybody can accept your indoor training.
The thick pad area absorbs the vibration to floor up to 75%.
If you need more reduction, it's also a good idea to put corrugated cardboard sheet underneath the mat.
