What are your thoughts on the Bells of Steel Lat Pulldown/Low Row?

@dertrendtrader 2 ай бұрын

Looks overall great, but: the bar at the top from which the rope comes down is much too long! This means that you can hardly activate your complete lats at all because you have to lean too far back.

Really appreciate the in depth look at our lat pulldown! We hope it serves you well! 😎😎💪💪

I got the Titan Lat Tower v2 when it was still a relatively budget buy at $1,399. Also, it was technically free (for me) when all those Covid checks were flying around. Literally got a $1,400 covid kickback check, cashed it, and ordered the Titan Tower the same day. If I had to pick, I would prefer this machine for the better low pulley design, but I just use my Rhino if I need a low pulley for something outside of low rows and it works fine. Honestly though, at the current $2,000 price range, I would probably look at more expensive options, or, look to Fray Fitness, who was selling a very similar lat tower recently in the $1,150 price range.

Love what BOS has been doing lately but still very satisfied with my selectorized lat low row on my Rep PR 5000. Even if I had the space, I’d still choose my rack attached selectorized to save space

@GarageGymLab 8 ай бұрын

Can’t blame you! Big fan of rack mounted solutions.

@shmser8401 7 ай бұрын

I've been eyeing this machine since they released the new version. I'd love to own it, but my plate loaded rack attachment is getting the job done for now.

@liftsalty 8 ай бұрын

Nice!! This is definitely the one I'd buy if I were in the market. I think with the gympin/weight peg you'd typically still want the selector pin inserted below it as well - that should take care of any misalignment issues with the selector shaft.

@GarageGymLab 8 ай бұрын

Good point, although I still think there would be a problem if the distance between the band pegs and tethered selector couldn’t fit the change plate on the pin

How did you get the double pulley that hangs to hang straight/parallel? Just put mine together and it seems to hang at an angle and the cable isn’t completely straight.

Excellent review.. not sure how the prices compare directly but the Fray Fitness model still looks better than this or the Titan model… for those of us in the 3X3 1” hole ecosystem I still think that the Rogue slinger+low row makes the most sense overall. Especially for us taller guys who can get it at 108” upright height if needed.

Thanks for watching! I haven’t tried the Fray model, but a solid home gym option for sure.

Just curious, did you replace this with your old Prime Fitness single stack? Which did you like better?

I still have the Prime unit. It’s overall better just due to the versatility of the column. You may want to also check out the REP Adonis coming out soon.

@Just_Me 8 ай бұрын

Fantastic review as always. I've missed your reviews. One thing that I think would have been helpful in this review is for you to talk through why this piece is an important addition to your gym. I always figured that if one could do pull ups/chin ups (with or without band assistance) and bent over row/pendlay rows with a barbell that working with a lat pulldown and low row wasn't worth the investment of added time in the gym let alone money spent. That may well be incorrect, but I'd be interested in your perspective on this as you seem to know what you're doing and obviously have gone ahead and made the investment.

@GarageGymLab 8 ай бұрын

Great thoughts! May be a good standalone video! Appreciate you.

@stefanomancini6569 8 ай бұрын

I think the advantages of a lat pull down vs barbells and pull ups , is the lower chance of injury, as I get older , doing pulls up are getting more difficult
