Accessory / “swing feet”
The oscillating movements occurring naturally with biking cannot normally be reproduced
when training on an ergometer. These movements include balancing movements or back
and forth oscillations. The rigid construction, and the fixed feet used to support the device,
prevent any dynamic movement. Also, heavy exercising would eventually lead to over-
loading the frame and mounting parts. Squeaking noises are a typical consequence of
such overloads.
The “swing feet” were developed for the
ergometers as can be understood
from the present description. But since they are
compatible with the feet of the
interested owners of
ergometers are
offered the possibility to order the “swing-feet”
as an upgrade set from Fa. daum electronic
GmbH. The swing effect is not so significant for
training as for bike ergometers.
However, the shock absorbing action could be
very significant for the floor in which the
is installed. Also the “swing feet” will
have preventive functions when used with the
ergo_lyps,
like e. g. absorbing the

noises and
their transmission through the floor, or the protection of sensitive floor surfaces, like
carpets, tiles, or parquet. The elastic pads of the “swing feet” absorb a substantial
part of the device's weight, and thus leave only a negligible pressure mark, and
frictional wear, particularly on thick carpets.
The following description is partly intended for the

ergometers. However, it
does apply in many aspects to the possibilities of using the “swing feet” with
