This is the best open trap bar available, period. (And here's a simple way to balance it...) For a long time I was looking for a used BioTest Dead-Squat bar, but the only ones I could find were either too far away from me or were $750. Then I found this bad boy and my search was over -- the advantage of this bar over the Dead-Squat bar is obviously that this has an open design. There's tons of room inside this compared to a standard hex bar. And with the addition of a few simple holes you could easily make another grip option a few inches wider if you wanted to have a wider grip to tax the upper body more. Fortunately for me this is not the rackable kind because it would be too long and too unwieldy for my workout space. Others have complained that the bar is not balanced but it is very easy to move your grip forward to find the balance point. OR you can simply put a ten pound plate on the back horns (which balance quite well) and then your grip will be perfectly centered with the handles (as shown in the photo). Installation was simple as well. (Hint: the grips get two washers, one of each type.) I will pass this on to my great grandchildren in my will or find a way to take it with me to the afterlife. Review: Solid Piece of Equipment, could be better - More like 3 1/2 stars. Very solid piece of equipment, good knurling, not too aggressive yet gives a good grip. As others have noted, it is very unbalanced, much more so than other open trap bars I’ve used. You need to experiment with the grip to be able to use this bar effectively. Instructions are terrible - no words, no directions as to what size tools to use for assembly (hint - you need 5/8 inch wrench) not even a step by step procedure, just an exploded diagram (2nd hint - don’t tighten anything until you have all bolts in place, they didn’t line up precisely). With better design in terms of balancing the bar, this could be an excellent piece of equipment. ## Features - INDUSTRY LEADER: For 30+ years, Body Solid has held the widest array of products designed to meet the demands of the ever-changing fitness industry (home gym, free weight machines, treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, weight plates, kettlebells, dumbbells, flooring, accessories and more).
