Asked a similar question last week, but I didn’t hear from any computrainer users. How do you guys keep your bikes from corroding from all the sweat? I’m assuming that you CT users use yours more than infrequently.

Excellent high velocity fans go a long ways to eliminating dripping sweat unless you’re training in an incredibly hot/humid room.

I use three towels per session.
One that covers the bars/stem/front of the top tube, one on the floor under the front half of the bike and one to grab for wiping excess sweat off me.
No fans (that takes the fun out of it).
I make sure to do a complete wipedown of the bike afterwards - no issues for the last two years.
x2 on the towels. One over the handlebars, one on the top tube. Use a good fan and wipe the bike down when you’re done.

I picked up a tacx cover that goes from the seatpost to the handlebars. It stops most sweat from touching the bike.
I use old race t-shirt’s and towels over the top tube and aerobars…that I usually have to change during the ride once they are soaked (and the shirt I’m wearing). I also give the bike a good wipe down after each ride.
Also I have my CT set up close to a window and balcony door, so I get a pretty good cool airflow which helps.
