- WHAT'S INCLUDED
- Sleek and Powerful - RaceDots® are made from extremely strong rare-earth magnets in a thin metal shell. The patent-pending design allows the two magnetic pieces to nest inside one another, making for an extremely strong, hard-to-break bond.
- Fabric-Friendly - Why do we ruin our expensive race gear with safety pin holes every time we step to the line? We don’t have to! RaceDots® hold fast through clothing, so you’ll never pierce or tear your favorite technical tee or cycling jersey again.
- Safe to Use - Putting RaceDots® on is a snap—no more pricked fingers! Plus, you can slide them around or hold the RaceDot® in place and move your number underneath it for perfect placement. Try that with a safety pin!
- Rustproof - No more permanent rust stains when you forget to immediately unpin your number after a race. The RaceDots® shell is nickel-plated copper, so they will never rust, no matter how much you sweat.
Start by placing your bib (number) on top of the Arranger and decide where you want your RaceDots to go. Then take the ring magnet off the bottom of your RaceDots and pop them into the pocket where the RaceDot will connect. Be sure the polarity is facing the correct direction or else your RaceDot will not connect. It helps to stuff one side in first then pull the Arranger pocket to allow the other side to pop in. This takes a little practice but the silicone is very stretchy so go ahead and tug on it.
Once you have all your ring magnets in place, you should double-check that the corresponding tops will in fact, connect and no ring magnets need to be flipped over.
Place the Arranger under your top layer, and place the number on top as you would normally. Then, apply the top of each RaceDot, lining them up with each pocket containing a ring magnet. You can do this while either wearing your garment or while it is lying flat (good for photos - be sure to tag us!). If you do this with a skin suit, you still have to move slowly when putting the suit on, but it's much easier now with the Arranger. Not to mention, if there is any bunching, it's easy to pull apart and not have the ring magnets go flying around the room (or porta-john).
As always, the key is to move slowly and practice a bit - BEFORE race day! Remember, you will be tired, anxious, and impatient on race day, best to practice this a few times before being rushed. Then go and crush that race!
ARRANGER
To put things in a neat, attractive, or required order. The RaceDots Arranger keeps your 'dots where you want them. It makes using RaceDots a breeze, even on the tightest of skin suits. Made of hypo-allergenic silicone, the 'ranger has a soft, stretchy and grippy feel. A matrix of pockets accepts the ring magnets where needed and allows the user to quickly position their bib either while wearing a garment or laid out before wearing. It is designed to be worn just under your jersey or shirt, flat against the skin or base layer with magnet pockets facing out. Holes in the pockets allow the dimpled base of the top RaceDot to interlock and hold your bib in place. One size to fit bibs from around the globe. 215mm x 195mm x 1mm (5mm pocket height) Weight: 44g
USE & CARE
Visually inspect RaceDots for damage before opening the packaging. Exchanges and refunds cannot be issued for RaceDots that have been opened. Read safety warnings on packaging. While RaceDots are extremely strong, they are not indestructible. RaceDots pieces are not intended to be used without material in between them, as the action of snapping together (fun as it may be) may cause the back piece to break.
MAGNET POLARITY
The magnetic force of the RaceDots pieces is directional; the back piece will only mate with the front piece one way. Be ready to allow the back piece to flip over if it is not facing the right way. May the force be with you.
Application: RaceDots are very easy to apply to the front of a shirt, but for a cycling jersey where the race number goes on the back, it’s a bit trickier. When you apply your race number before putting the jersey on, be sure to keep the jersey flat so the RaceDots do not stick to each other. For a skin suit, it’s best to have someone help once the suit is already on but still unzipped. We strongly recommend our new “Arranger” for use with any tight clothing like skin suits, it really makes using RaceDots a snap, even if you don’t have a friend to help get your number on. The Arranger also helps keep the ring magnets from getting lost when you take your kit off. RaceDots can be knocked off if not used properly and we don't replace "lost" products (we're too small, sorry). Do not use for obstacle racing. Be careful of any metal, RaceDots will stick to most metal objects as well as other friends wearing RaceDots. #permahug
SAFETY INFORMATION
Keep out of reach of children! RaceDots pose a choking hazard. Never, EVER swallow RaceDots! If you have any medical device that may be affected by magnets, consult with your doctor before using RaceDots. While RaceDots have not had any effect on timing chips, heart rate monitors or ANT/RFID devices in testing (we’ve tested with the top 8 timing companies in the USA), RaceDots are not guaranteed to work with every product or timing system. Keep RaceDots separated from any electronics or storage media (e.g. cell phones, computers, hard drives, credit cards, security badges, keys) that may be affected by magnets. RaceDots contain nickel and rare-earth elements.
