      @@NoFate247 I had the original Titan fitness camber bar at first and like you said it was a little hard to balance because it was so wide. Couple years later, I finally went for the kabuki kadillac bar with knurling. In my opinion, the kabuki bar should be $100 less 500 is a heavy hit to the wallet. Only reason I went with it is because I had zero financing through PayPal at the time.
      Had a problem with one of the sleeves. Ended up calling kabuki and they were the middleman so they had to contact rogue and they ended up sending the wrong item 😆 so I had to call kabuki again and go through it all over again. Kabuki customer service takes forever…. if I had to do it all over again, I’d probably just go with the elite FTS version from the start. Every now and then they have a sale along with free shipping. That would’ve been better for my wallet. Hehe 😉

    @Frennemydistinction 5 месяцев назад +1

    Fringe bar has one defect: one of the handles has much more aggressive knurling. Bar is sold out rn, so maybe next batch will not have this quirk. Also, the middle brace sticking out at top makes bent over rows a tad uncomfortable as that bit pokes your chest at top of movement, just like Jonathan says with benching. But great, versatile bar, and at $168, good deal anyway.

    • @NoFate247

    I have used over a dozen multigrip bars.
    The Kabuki and Rogue Cadillac bars were horribly overpriced. Kabuki version had no knurling and was hot garbage.
    Fringe Sport swiss bar was ok. But it has thin handles in my opinion. Returned it after 24 hours.
    Titan multigrip bars are one of my favorites. Thick handles. Good knurling.
    Bells of Steel Nemesis was good for the price. Good angles. But handles were thin and the build quality was very cheap.
    Best cambered multigrip bar I have ever owned is from Black Widow Training Gear. It has excellent knurling and thick handles. Angles are excellent and the camber is excellent. I got a custom version with 2" handles which is even better for taking stress off the hands during heavy presses.

  • @squealer42
    @squealer42 5 месяцев назад +1

    Fringe is often off-kilter with their sale pricing. They'll say 25% off on a bumper set, it'll show $400, crossed off to $360, and $270 after discount. Then, next week, the sale is over and it's back to $400.
    Right now, they have an awesome Valentine's deal. 25% off pink bumper sets, but 40% off a pink Bumper and Bar WonderWoman combo.
    The 260-lb set alone is $1000, marked down to $750. Meanwhile, the 260-lb combo is $1125, discounted to $675. Ummmmm.... Yes, your math is correct, but is it really?
    Personally, I got the REP bar last November for 10% off. My shoulder's been thanking me ever since. A couple narrow misses on a fat lip getting up, but a few back of the head TONKs lying down. I keep a pair of rings dangling now over the bench for ease of sliding in and out - most helpful when benching to failure, bar is glued to the straps, grab the rings and wiggle out instead of ooze to the floor.

      @NoFate247  5 месяцев назад

      Don't need to beat around the bush, the fringe sport bar is better than the arch bar. There's a reason the arch bar goes on sale for $99, it's a very very budget bar that's nearing 4 years old in terms of design and has virtually no knurling. I don't see an upside to the arch bar unless you're really broke or are able to get one of the dozen or so on facebook market place for like $75

    Right now I got the cheapest yes4all MultiGrip bar but uh maybe I’ll get the Titan cambered MG.
    Also, something kinda weird, the gym I got to is mostly powerlifters and stronman competitors and they have the kabuki MultiGrip and a majority of them don’t like it. Just thought I’d throw that out there.
    I think the gym has it because they have an old school westside barbell mentality but legitimately nobody ever uses it. Personally I don’t like how it feels, the “knurling” is close to nonexistent and it feels like the handles could’ve been placed a little better, whether that be angle or spacing Idk. So expensive isn’t always better
