These are excellent. There are cheaper and DIY options, but it’s not like these are super expensive. I grabbed a big pack of them and use them all the time for my yoke and sled

This is a custom log from Alan Christ (sells on FBMP in NY/PA. He makes an awesome product. It’s gorgeous, feels great and has been very durable so far. I’m a huge fan. He polys them so thick that the finish feels amazing.

One of the best commercial leg presses I have used. It has lasted in our department gym, and it has good adjustment for people of different sizes.

The self limitation of an outside-the-rack spotter arm on a 2x2 rack probably contributes to this, but the arm is too short to be visible for anything other than presses. The build quality seems ok, but the welds aren’t as good as the 2x3 version. I bought them for log press, and they’re hardly long enough to serve as log j cups. The lining is really nice…

The knurling and overall quality is ok, but I prefer the straight handle over the bulged handles on my more expensive DBs. They’re better in general, and will accept a fat grip.

Got these for my Y1 Yoke. What an awesome set of safeties for a very reasonable price. The hitch pins are only ok, and I’m sure they want you to update to Fringe’s magpins. The lining is awesome and well constructed. The liner for the uprights is tight and well fitting.

I expected these to wear down or get looser over time, but they haven’t. They do slide a little during cleans and deadlifts, but nothing unexpected. Only problem is that I have two pairs, and they are not exactly consistent as far as tightness.

Only deducting because I prefer a uniformly fat grip rather than the bulge style. They still work well on DBs and can slide over a spreader bar to make a nice lat pull down.
