Some new riders often choose silicone cushions to reduce the pain caused by the hard seat on PP during riding. Silica gel, formerly known as silicone rubber, has high adsorption performance, good thermal stability, stable chemical properties and high mechanical strength, so it is not as easy to deform as sponge and is more elastic. Similarly, its shortcomings are also very fatal, because of its structural problems, it can not breathe and sweat. After riding for a long time, the sweat at PP can't be discharged, which leads to a bad riding feeling. At this time, the riding trousers pad plays a role of cushioning and ventilation between PP and hard seat. Silicone resin is a very elastic material. Riding in the silicone cushion for a few hours, you will find that there is a lot of sweat and high temperature under PP, so the silicone cushion has a nickname: "Fried eggs only". This effect is most obvious when riding for a long distance. If you are a novice, you only ride once in a while, and the distance is not very long. The silicone cushion is still very suitable.
foam-rubber cushion
As we all know, sponges are very absorbent and are often used in sofas and cushions. Soft and delicate natural tissue structure can cooperate with sweat glands of human skin to sweat to the greatest extent. Can be quickly dried, not easy to grow mold. Whether at home or abroad, although the sponge cushion is not the best in the professional field of cycling, the trousers cushion made of sponge is cost-effective and commonly used, and still occupies a very large market.
Sponge pads should not be forced to twist, rub, squeeze or press natural sponges, so as not to damage sponge fibers and affect their service life. Don't expose yourself to the sun. Thicker sponges have certain thermal insulation, while thinner sponges have poor ride comfort.
Punched honeycomb silica gel/sponge pad
After many experiments and improvements, the traditional production design mode has been subverted and the disadvantages of conventional cushions have been solved. The punched honeycomb silica gel pad and punched honeycomb sponge pad were developed. A better user experience is achieved in terms of breathability and comfort. Large-area perforated honeycomb network is more transparent, which improves the permeability, perspiration and comfort in all directions. In the long-term riding, it has a very significant effect on perspiration and heat conduction compared with the traditional seat cushion. Of course, all this is optimized and improved for the comfort of customers.
