    SPOKE TOO SOON, BAR WENT LIVE SHORTLY AFTER UOLOAD. Shipping was $25 for me! One thing I forgot to mention is I think this bar will be a bastard to rack. If you look at the clips of it it's in a mono with the arms in, so that the bar is sitting where the bend isn't that significant. However in the product pics, they're on normal cups and on the bend. Since this is wider than the Kabuki I imagine this will be even more of a pain to deal with unless you use some type of blocks.

      Shipping is very reasonable.

    • @Sboarder-ul6cr
      @Sboarder-ul6cr 2 роки тому

      I suspect it would be easier to rack. The camber being wider means it won't constantly flip over like the Kabuki. I could be missing something though.

      Personally, I have a hard time racking a buffalo bar with rolling J cups. As soon as a plate goes on one side it slides over.

    • @chrisfronk4894
      @chrisfronk4894 2 роки тому +1

      swap the j-cups to the opposite side of the rack, then they can swing in to match the contour of the bar. I have a *** bar and that works well for me.

    Can confirm on Kabuki's lack of accountability on delivery dates. I ordered a Transformer Bar from them last September and they recently told me it'll be another 2-3 months because I'm 68th in the queue for their chrome coating process. Super frustrating to pay such a high premium for a bar and feel like you're dealing with Titan Fitness the whole time.

      @@bmstylee well, I disagree on the “nicer products for less elsewhere” claim as far as the transformer bar goes. Not really anything else like it right now. But yes their shipping costs and delivery dates are straight up bush league and reflect very poorly on a company trying to sell themselves as a premium supplier.
      I will say- I think someone at the company read my comment as 20 minutes later I got an email saying my bar was preparing to ship out 😂

    You seem to be the only one talking about this bar online, I can’t find any info elsewhere, and was in the market for a buffalo bar. When I saw you posted this video I don’t think I’ve ever pulled the trigger faster for a product, even though I’m in Canada and had to go through the Rogue website US and pay crazy shipping fees to get it here.
    Shipping to Canada was approx 212.00, and taxes were approx 92, bringing the total to 804, and with conversion that’s about 1056.00 CDN, which is a bit less than the kabuki Duffalo.
    Thanks again man, Im so excited to get this thing🎉

      I was in the same boat for a while, but after having some elbow issues on bench I ended up getting a Duffalo (I live in the area and it was a blemish, so much less cost and hassle than usual) and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorites. Absolute dream for bench press and low bar squats/good mornings, plus a nice subtle variation for OHP. Pleasantly surprised at how much use I’m getting out of it.

    Because of shoulder issues I completely switched to a Transformer bar for squats about a year ago (got it quick ordering from their cosmetic blemish). Regardless of need, I think that bar was a great investment because it’s so versatile. My shoulders are feeling much better and I’ve been thinking about a Duffalo bar recently, but the price and availability have kept me from pulling the trigger …along with the fact that I’ve never used a Buffalo bar and have no idea if I’d like/use it that much. I’m tempted, but I think I’ll wait for a few reviews. Looking forward to your thoughts once you get it. Cheers.

    Great vid my brother! Definitely eyeballing this one (not that I need it), as I've wanted a larger diameter bar. At 38mm, this hits that mark. I agree on a lot of your points in terms of the Cerakote finish looking rough and hope that it's cleaner on production versions. I don't mind Cerakote, but it would have been nice to have a stainless version (I'd like some variety and all of my bars are coated). I also think the price is reasonable, even though on the high side. It's not that much more than an aggro bar and it's way beefier, not to mention a specialty bar. Definitely significant savings over the Kabuki version!

    Love all your videos and I have gotten alot of your advice/equipment too as I am setting up my home gym. Thank you for all this advice. I have an off the wall question. I have just a bit of space left to fill and I am trying to decide between a Powertec leg press/hack squat machine (which is the shortest at 79 inches and will fit) or a leg curl/extension machine. So hearing you say the legcurl/extension machine is really just accessory exercises for legs, how do you feel about and why have you not gotten a leg press/hack or one of the other, as you seem to have space. My question is *why did you not get a leg press or hack squat machine for yourself. Do you consider them accessory and not worth the money or space, or just that squating and dead lifting suffices?. I have a Rogue Rm4 and ForceUSA G12 smith machine which has a leg press attachment but its awkward.

    • @BasementBrandon
      @BasementBrandon  2 роки тому

      So take this with a grain of salt b/c it's based off my own preferences. But I would never (well 99%) never get a leg press or hack squat. Not only do I feel like I can do the same if not better work with a barbell, but they're expensive, take up a lot of space, and you need a shit ton of weights to use them (and load them). While the ext/curl gets used maybe 2x a week for me, It's a movement that's hard for me to adequately replicate without the machine.

    I disagree about rogue not releasing bars from events they've done and likely will release bars from CrossFit games events.. I have a c70 which is a short Ohio bar that was the first or one of the first bars introduced in the CrossFit games years ago... They also have released grip accessories from grip competitions done between a major event (anvil and grip rings)... Now this is a first bar from a strongman event but I don't anticipate people using the elephant bar or any one other than Coop or a strongman training for that event buying it...
    You're right about Rogue speciality bars before the past month they were not special at all...
    Also right about Kabuki completely miscalculating their estimated delays, they didn't come close and I almost filed a CC/PayPal complaint the item looked like it was in stock when I ordered waited 4 months in total and they missed every estimate and updated estimate they gave me along the way.. Ordered a product without any delay/back order notice waited 4 weeks and nothing, emailed and told 2 more weeks (6 weeks total) give them 4 weeks before emailing again (8 weeks total), they tell me 6 more weeks (14 weeks total) I give them 8 weeks (16 weeks total) and it shipped right before I was planning on reaching back out and/or cancelling... I know times have been crazy the last two years but you've had that much time to make adjustments too

    Hey B, I think the CB4 stands for “curve/bend 4.4” drop. You probably know that by now but figured I’d mention due to it being an aha moment when looking through the specs of the bar.

      Never thought about that actually but not sure that's the case here based off their other naming conventions. I think it may have to do with the iteration of the bar. For example the CB-1 is their original camber bar. They also have MG-1 through MG-4 (with 4 being the newest ones they released last week).

    Have the Yukon Bar from Titan Fitness and it’s very high quality I actually prefer it over all my Rogue bars… and also it doesn’t tip over at all like what Coop says not sure how he got it to do that cause I’ve genuinely tried and can’t get it to do that. Tbh I use it more for bench press the camber on it helps my bench go up drastically when I go back to a straight bar.
