These were my first set of barbell collars. They work well for easily changing weight plates. The only drawback is that the ones I have do not have magnets in them. If I purchase another set, I will get the ones with magnets in them.

Purchased for my Dane 2.0 to prevent cables from getting twisted. I have used them for a month and enjoy them better than the traditional carabiner. It makes switching out attachments much quicker and easier. Would highly recommend to anyone who is switching out attachments frequently or has a system with cable twisting issues.

A co-worker recommended these to me when I was battling golfer's elbow. I used it for several months and the pain went away. Now I am dealing with tennis elbow and have utilized it again to help with recovery. If you have elbow issues, I would highly recommend this product to help you recover.

Nice lower priced option for having variable hand positions on a single attachment. It is very comfortable to use on the hands. Coating is quality and it just works. Only complaint would be that it is heavy so it eats weight plates for lat pulldowns. For the price I could not find another substitute better as long as you are ok it being heavy.

Wanted to perform some kettlebell lifts and did not want to spend a ton of money. I priced out getting a few individual kettlebells versus the Bowflex Adjustable and it was just cheaper to buy the Bowflex. The weight increments are non-standard which is an adjustment. Other than that they work fine for the limited lifts I have in my workout. I would not recommend these for a person that does a lot of kettlebell work, but for someone who just does little kettlebell works these will do it at a good price.

I use this as my everything bar. It is the first quality bar I have ever owned. Good knurling for me. I love the color and the way it feels compared to my other bar. One drawback is that I immediately noticed scratches from loading plates. I figured it would be a tad more scratch resistant.

I got the BOB with the Dane 2.0 package I ordered. It is as good as any smith machine on any of my previous racks. Easy and quick install. I do not feel the seams between the posts which was a concern. The clamping mechanism is quick to get a bar setup. I just leave one of my bars in there. Few issues that are not show stoppers, but are good to know. It would be great to include another pair of mag pins for adjusting the bar starting height. I have to move it to the safeties, move the mag pins, re-hook the bar, then move the safeties to the new position. Specifically with the Dane 2.0, if you keep the top support with the Fringe Sports sign, the bolts get in the way of the hooks when racking and unracking. (See picture) This is only an issue for squats and I am 6’2” so others may not have the same issue. I could replace the sign support with the lower crossbeam without the sign, but I just work around it. Overall I am happy with it.

I used this to train for my first 100 mile bike ride. I replaced my old trainer with this because I wanted the direct drive option. I paired this with the Zwift app so that I could join the cycling community while working out at home. I found myself favoring workouts on this instead of going out on solo rides. My first one broke at about the 3 year mark. At that time I was using it on a daily basis for 45 minutes to an hour. I called Wahoo, and even though it was out of warranty, they offered to take it on trade in for a discounted replacement of a newer model. Their customer service was awesome and I would highly recommend them.
