Adjustable Pull-up Bar Rack Attachment

I ordered this along with the BoS yoke rack figuring both would work seamlessly together since it was listed as a compatible accessory. Is this part compatible... yes... but you CANNOT use it while the standard yoke cross support is in place. You must remove that to place the pull up bar in. The idea behind having both bars was so my wife would be able to easily add in a pull up bar at her convenience and I could mix up grips. Removing the yoke rack cross bar is difficult but not impossible to do in my garage by myself. For my 5' 4" wife... that is near impossible.

I will be cutting this up and modifying it to work seamlessly with this. Im very mixed about this bar.. if it worked seamlessly as expected it would've gotten a 5* review. The fact BoS say 'yes it may be frustrating but to just remove the yoke cross bar and swap it in' like it doesn't take 15-20 minute to change over in a standard 8ft garage. The fact I have to modify it to make it work is why I dropped it to a 2* -- to warn others who may not have the supplies/knowledge on how to easily and safely modify it.

This bar is excellent. Very solid. Holds my weight without moving at all. The only thing I would say is that the brackets that hold it in place are so large that they block off several of the holes on the rack at the top. A little lower profile would be nice. Mine is a folding rack so taking the pins out to fold it up can be challenging but I expect that to get better over time and I don't need to fold it up that often. Solid solid bar though.

I built a short modified Rogue Half rack (72") and needed a pullup solution. The Rogue pullup bar I had sat too low to do pullups, so I saw this one and figured I'd just place it on top of the uprights and cross members. It works perfectly. The way it's designed allowed me to set it on top. Not the way it's designed to be used, but works exactly how I wanted it to. Very thick gauge steel and no issues using it this way. It will 100% hold. Super happy the way it turned out.

I'm using the 2.3" x 2.3" 1" Knurled Stainless version with my setup. I bought this to be used with my Bells' All-in-One Trainer and specifically their lever arms to connect them together for press movements. Unfortunately, it didn't fit. This bar is slightly too short for the width of the All-in-One, which I didn't know when ordering - woops!

All was not lost however, I ended up drilling out the four 5/8" holes on the bar to 1", which was enough to get them to fit on my lever arms. I wouldn't necessarily recommend someone else to do what I did unless you like drilling through 6-gauge steel, but it is doable. After drilling, I deburred the holes and sealed them with some matte black paint for good measure. Smooth sailing after that.
