Great lat pulldown bar, the knurling has a good bite to it , I feel like the bar is a little long but not a complaint! The straight portion of the bar I’ve used for tricep push downs or bicep curls. Great bar does exactly what you’d expect Ps: SHAFT DIAMETER MAKES DRINK SPOTTER MOUNTING A BIT HAIRY. Can be done though

Not much to say here the knurling is sharp, I never use it and it’s great at collecting dust in the corner of my gym. Ps: all metal great options for a drink spotter to mount!

Great barbell picked up used for $200, it’s my “beater bar” now that I have newer nicer barbells. Picked it up with surface rust, hit it with 3-1 and a barbell rescue brush and the bars back to life. My only complaint about this bar is that the knurling isn’t aggressive. It’s never slipped out of my hands or anything like that but it just feels smooth. It’s got sort of a bite some how but it feels completely smooth I don’t understand. Ps: all metal can accept a drink spotter anywhere just be careful of placement for reracks.

It Gets the job done! I bought this rack with no idea companies like rep, bells of steel and titan existed. Purchased this rack before even looking into the home gym space at all. Complete impulse buy from a local “fitness store” I paid $1000 which I completely regret now knowing what’s actually out there. Since purchasing I’ve been able to DIY a lot of attachments to work with this rack like a rogue matador. The rack itself is sturdy I’ve loaded 405 for a squat and was only a 7 of 10 scared for my life. When doing dips or pull ups the whole rack shakes like a dog passing razorblades even though it is bolted at all four corners to the floor. The uprights are 3x3 and the holes are supposed to be 1” except the 1” roller j cups I bought from bells of steel have about an 1/8” of play all the way around it. That being said: the safeties saved me on a squat and a bench and I’m still here to type the review! So I guess that makes it a handy unit, would never buy again now knowing what’s available but probably would never sell either as I would never get my money back. PS: the whole thing in metal so drink spotter lite options are ENDLESS

My daily driver the knurling is aggressive, bar looks good and feels good in the hands. This bar made me a Texas power bar lifer. Ps: drink spotter sticks good just plan ahead of your placement before re rack.

Picked mine up FBMP for $500 in 2025 very happy with the purchase very reliable and hasn’t let me down yet. PS: Not a lot of metal to put drink spotter on

Game changer definitely a buy once cry once scenario. I feel like actually having a full set of dumbbells in my gym has really boosted my training as well as a set up to 120lbs but not taking up a whole wall/floor of my gym was a huge reason I went with the reppins. I had plate loaded adjustable dumbbells and I hate wasting time between sets. The ease of use on these makes them worth all the money. PS plenty of metal for drink spotter but because careful some exercises will tip your drink out of your drink spotter
