I will agreed to an extent. Especially for accessories, bars, etc. From what I hear they will go out of their way to help make custom things as well.Originally Posted by Cleveland33
You could also throw Texas Strength Systems in with those.
My post was referring more to the larger companies (Legened, Elite, etc). And no one will touch their shipping time AND cost (at least that I'm aware of)

No one piece of equipment/rack has to suit everyone, different strokes for different folks. My point was it is hard to beat Rogue as a total Package IMOOriginally Posted by GarageIron

I agree, which I why I bought an R3 myself. I just suspect based on recent photos and product releases that they are moving further away making "things" to making parts that make things. There is a difference.Originally Posted by jlockleOSU

I don't know if you are still referring to the bigger companies, but as BWTG now seems to have things in stock instead of building everything as it is ordered, my understanding is that he will have it out the door same or next day.Originally Posted by jlockleOSU

It would be interesting to see them just offer the parts and see how creative and inventive their consumers get. I wouldn't mind ordering pieces at a discount and creating my own rack so to speak.
Anyone want to start a lego fitness company with me?▪█─────█▪ Equipment Crew #54 ▪█─────█▪

In all seriousness you can order just individual parts, just email/call Rogue and get a quote. Obviously this is not as cheap as buying one of their already made racks/rigsOriginally Posted by trimble006

funny, Edge Fitness just posted this to their FB page:
"This unit is shown with our universal (will fit most racks) rack version Reverse Hyper. One thing unique, is our sleeved designed enables you to install the unit at different angles. This feature as far as we know is available only to units costing over $2000. We have value priced this at $375.00. Once set up, it can be installed and removed in a just a few minutes. The same components are used on this unit as our others and it comes with a comfortable wrap around pad that won't dig into your hips."

Look at the first pic, see how you can get your feet under the crossovers if you were squatting or deadlifting. That makes it a sumo rack.Originally Posted by rosshmusic
It surprises me how many people refuse to buy equipment from Elitefts because its too expensive but they will buy equipment from their competitors, then continue to go on EFS website to educate themselves for FREE

Picked up my Edge unit today. He makes units that go into a power rack, but in my opinion, this is the way to go
