I literally just sold my big huge full power cage because of space restraints in my garage. And what a replacement this rack will be for me!!! Ordering one asap!!!
I had the same experience, but eventually it did come. It’s the trials of supporting small businesses. I will say the packaging was amazing, quality was amazing and I still love it.
@@RaulPerez1 ok I ordered mine in december. They have promised it will ship in a couple of weeks several times now. I guess I have to wait for some more. Did you order any eccessories?
@@jonaslinuselfving I kept getting the same response. Next week. In a couple more weeks. After having a lot of discussions it seems there is a work flow issue and some items were not QC’d correctly. So instead of shipping sub par equipment, they are sitting until the order is corrected. They are basing their reputation on quality. I had ordered the upgraded multi-grip pull up bar and dip station when I purchased - that all came together. I have since ordered a landmine and extra pins. So I’m guessing I’ll be waiting a bit in that. But I have enough to keep me busy now. My home gym is basically done and I’m finally hitting heavy weights again.
Ordered one almost a year ago and still haven't received it. I've seen a lot of comments saying "5/6 months," but im currently on month 10. I reached out several times and received anticipated ship dates that have come and gone. Has anyone else had to wait this long? 10+ months feels excessive
have you dropped any significant weight on the spotter arms? Do you think they could support a failed rep >300 lbs or so? I have seen videos of other similarly built racks tipping forward in a similar situation
I have failed a 500lb squat and dropped it on the spotter arms and it held it perfectly. If you were to drop 300+ from shoulder height on the very end of the spotter arms i bet it would tip. It’s held multiple failed bench attempts 350-450lbs as well.
I asked BridgeBuilt if I can fit rogue accessories as I have an extra spotter arm lying around and they said as long as it is Rogue Monster lite accessories, it should fit.
rogue sml 2 with spotter arms and pull up bar is about $770 after taxes and shipping. this bridge is $1,050 for same config. even if this startup had the same price as rogue, most people would buy rogue over this. why would anyone buy an unknown company when a reputable well know company is selling it at a lower cost lol?
Bridgebuilt may be a smaller company, but it definitely isn’t an unknown. They have a very good reputation in the industry. The Phoenix rack is unique because it has a 3x3 base instead of 2x3 this makes the rack more sturdy. They also made it collapse easily and be moved easily which the attached wheels. If you’re in the market for a space saving rack I highly recommend this one. When choosing equipment for your gym there are many considerations like company reputation, space saving features, attachments, price, style, customer service, USA vs imported, etc. I hope you find what works best for you.
What you’re paying the extra here is the folding feature which sml2 don’t have. I was debating if I would get a rogue foldable rack or this because I have limited space but I went with this instead because I can move the rack and fold it to save space which Rogue or any of the US brands don’t have. It’s just what I was looking for. It also have lifetime warranty and this company has been around and is quite reputable in their area who is now going national. The only down side though is the long wait.
