I have the rogue USA aluminums. No complains other than the occasional finger snap 😂. Really they meet all of my needs but I can’t help being curious about the Eleiko collars.
I just picked up a pair of the Rogue USA’s the other day after buying a new power rack from REP and couple barbells and full set of bumper plates. Seems everyone highly recommends them and I’m looking forward to getting everything and putting them to use (and not busting my fingers on the release lever!!!)
Love the sign on that screen there, looks good
About the spring collars. I bought some titan one (I know, I know... I don't do titan anymore and have a BBB complaint against them for some stuff)... Anyways, they didn't work on anything that I had after a couple of times. I don't know if it was weather temperature or what.
YES! Rogue HG 2.0s are the only pair I have. They have held over 600lb on a deadlift bar pull without flinching. I love them! Great review man!
Man, so much of the same for me. I have 2 pairs of HGs and always find myself reaching for those. I do have Rogue OSOs that I use for my loadable dumbbells because I like a really tight collar for those (and that’s what Rogue recommends), and I have spring collars because my wife also flat out refuses to mess with the other ones 😂😂😂
Thank you.
Very helpful! Just had a set of Amazon collars break so I’m looking for something better. I like the rogue HG style and they’re reasonably priced.
Great review Rylan! Seriously nothing wrong with the old school spring collars, but I don't own them.
The springs one is very good indeed and soooo cheap. There is this craziness about getting the very best collars for the money... Used that for years and was very happy before. Very good advice on your side.
I have some Lock-Jaw quick release aluminum collars and they're pretty good. I did bruise a knuckle once when I was in a hurry.
I have proloc collars, work great on regular bars and it futureproofs you in case you end up buying axel/specialty bars.
Good review. I started with springs, then got some Boneyard OSO's. First time snap back is a real thing. Lol. Wonder if we could make a lever wrench, square tube to help open and close some lever arms?
I really like my rogue USA. Haven't had the issue of beating up my fingers. I did just pick up a set of hg 2.0 axle collars for my arch nemesis bar.
I got the strength company collars for my loadable dumbbells and I love them
I think it depends on what you do. I have the HGs and the USA aluminums. If you do CrossFit where you are dropping weights a lot then the USA aluminums are going to work a lot better. I would also recommend the USA collars if you have loadable dumbbells. For powerlifting movements I agree that HGs are fine.
Helpful! Any suggestions for where to put the collar while changing plates? Add a hook to the rack? Glue a magnet to it? Just set it on the floor (and try not to step on it)?? Thanks!
I have Rogue aluminum and HG 2.0. I use them both and never had a problem with snapping fingers. Just hold one side of collar and flip the lever.
I have popped my knuckle more than a few times on my Rogue USA collars so you had me laughing at "knuckle-busters". You should really try my favorite collar though, the PRX Talon Collars. They're just $20 and they're basically magnetic slap bracelets for your barbell. They're even easier to take on/off than the HG collars imho because it doesnt matter if you take the collar off the bar before or after you add plates to the sleeve. In other words, no more holding a plate in one hand while removing the collar with the other to add weight to the bar as you go from warm ups to working sets. They hold heavy weight just fine for deads, although I haven't tested them for Oly lifts.
Rogue USA spring collars are good enough for me I even use them on my Rogue DB-15 LOADABLE DUMBBELLS.
