Poduct Reviews? of Titan X-3 Monolift attachment on a Rogue Monster Rack
Does anyone own a Titan Monolift attachment and mind sharing their thoughts on the overall quality (material, welds, hardware, paint, etc)?
I own a Rogue Monster SM-2 and want a monolift for benching.
At $165 the price is a steal compared to the rogue one, and curious to hear your thoughts on the Titan monolift.

You should repost or read this thread first. https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showt...hp?t=173984051Originally Posted by Conquer92
I'm not familiar with details on the titan, but doesn't your rogue monster use 1" holes? Im not sure if the titan uses 1", but pretty sure they use 5/8" or the closest metric unit.
Personally, I wouldn't put anything Titan on my Rogue stuff.Last edited by rpark; 08-08-2017 at 05:52 AM.

it wont fit your monster since titan only has 5/8" pins (or the metric equivalent)
The swing on the titan is also short compared to rogue making it useless for squatting IMO.

Haven't been able to "rep" many of you for a year or more...not for lack of trying.

Couldn't you just take the top smaller bolt out to increase how much it swings?Originally Posted by thejosef

problem probably lies in them just mass copying everything, but not having the engineers that actually lift or know the intricate details / features of the products they are copying.Originally Posted by thejosef

yes if you don't want the back stop bolt.Originally Posted by turbolsxstang
I like it as it helps me set up, get tight and have my feet placed just right. If it swings freely in both directions I can't lock myself underneath the bar.
But some people do take it out cause they like it better that way, which is why I think rogue has it removable.Best Raw total 1850 at 181 lbs

Makes sense. I actually prefer mine (Mech6 version) to be free swinging, but it's nice to have options.Originally Posted by smokinHawk

08-09-2017, 06:23 AM #11Is yours the swing in or bolt on version? What rack do you use it on? Do you use it for bench and squat? At issues with the distance the bar swings out of the way?Originally Posted by Hardgains88

I use it on an r4. Its the swing in model. I just used a thinner bolt so it has more distance. It works fine both squat and bench. If the distance bothered me i would take bolt out completely though. If that bothered me i would just drill another hole. Only issue using it with the r4 is the hole for hitch pin is off a tiny bit. I could enlarge hole if needed but havent gotten around to it and it fits tight enough on upright it doesnt moveOriginally Posted by Conquer92
