The design of these are awesome. Nice wide handles for swings and such. Plus they look cool. Flat green paint chips a little easier than other kettlebells. And I remember them being pricey when I got them. Think that's why I don't own the 72lb version (which I now regret not buying). Nothing wrong with my Rogue 72 but its no BoomBell.

Perfect solution for setting up two Arm Assassin Napalm Frames as 2⅜” rotating row handles. Like everything I have from Dean, this is well engineered and executed. You may be able to compromise on quality and save a few bucks on Amazon. But to me they were 100% worth it.

Bought this new as a reward when I ran out of room for plates on my cheap Cap (or maybe Titan?) Hex Bar. Seemed like the best option at the time. Open trap bars were still a rare, expensive thing back then. Stepping out of this thing after a heavy max pull with wagon wheels probably isn't the safest thing in the world ... hahaha But generally speaking, this is a well built bar that will keep doing it's job for many years to come.

This seemed like the best option for heavier bells in the 106 - 150lb range. Nice wide handles for two handed swings. Liked them so much that I got the 62 and 70lb to fill a gap between my MadFitter 53 and 88lb BoomBells. Slight ding on Value because shipping was so expensive.

Bought a pair when they first came out and seemed like a decent copy of Mark Bell's design from Rogue. Nothing subtle about them. Ton of slop on the bar so they bang like giant gongs. Left marks on the concrete until I put mats down. If I had to do it over again today - now that the Rogue 26'ER is on the market - I'd probably get the 26'ER.

Jumped on this quickly as an alternative to importing an expensive Robert Baraban expander. Build quality is top notch and it works well for a variety of exercises. But an optional foot plate and supersprings (like Robert Baraban) would really boost the performance and double the utility. With those two accessories ... one could get a true full body workout with one lightweight tool.

One of the few unique pieces to hit the grip scene. Trying to lift this was a very humbling experience. Frustrating in a fun way. Get one today!

The handles themselves are made well and feel good. And they hit my grip in a different way than any other D handle. Where these fall short is the strap and carabiner connection. I'm currently debating whether to get the Belt Fed Strength Handle Straps which require hardware from NiceLikeMike - and will essentially double the price of the handles. True price is closer to $255 plus shipping for what I think I want...
