I have the mighty grips, and they're great budget plates. The grey powder coating has lasted well, and there is very little rust, but that has more to do with living in a low-humidity environment. It was also super handy that I live in the same city the company is located, so I didn't have to pay for any shipping. LOL I used to work for these guys and they are dedicated to delivering the best service and the best quality-price ratio possible.

When you do rogue please measure the echo bumper plates outside 450mm +/- 3mm tolerance. It's a size tolerance snuck under the specs... Their bumpers from my personal experience had the 10s and 15s as the largest so first to hit the ground and absorb all the weight on a bar, with shortest warranty this is not ideal.. them being larger is the opposite of other companies with smaller 10s* and/or 15s so it goes against industry standards where the light denominations are the same size or smaller.
@Sidekick_Snowman Жыл бұрын
I have a 25lb pair of Rogue Echo V2s, and they're not the same diameter as the Fringe Sport bumper plates I have. I was disappointed because I didn't want 25s to hold all of that weight. I'm filling out my collection with Fringe Sport bumpers because they're cheaper than Rogue.
@hbot37hbot37 Жыл бұрын
They used to sell 15 lb milled plates. You could get 4-15s, 4-5's. and 2-2.5's, along with your 45's, and make any weight combo with the least possible amount of change plates but they stopped offering that for some reason.

The black with colored text look a lot like Fringe Sport Contrast Bumpers. Those are the best general bumper option here (if you're like me) for one always overlooked reason - thinner ridges near the perimeter. This allows for easy one hand carrying even on 45s. The wider lips are too big and there's nothing to get your fingers under (unless you have massive hands) so they are more difficult to support. One of the advantages of iron is handling, and while these cannot compare - you at least have the option of one hand handling that is good enough for your typical loading/deloading.

Not plate related but can I'm just starting my home gym. Not only I do not have a ton of room/space, my budget at this time is also not huge.

But I am not sure about it when it's in the horizontal - leg curl - mode. Could you please make a review about this bench - sometime, when you see fit, if you see fit? Thank you!

Rogue only has free shipping when you buy a full set, not individual pairs. So saying a pair of 45s cost $180 is misleading. To me in WA it was about $90 shipping for a pair of 45s, so price is more like $270 before tax. Shipping is baked into the price of the sets I’m sure.

Warning! Potential scam involving Garage Gym Reviews (GGR). I won a prize but had to pay $109 for shipping. Then they asked for an additional $150 customs fee. After paying, they said the prize was delayed due to an accident. Weeks later, they offered a refund but demanded $150 and new shipping costs. When the prize was sent to the wrong address, they asked me to pay for shipping again. I refused and requested a refund. They insisted I pay $150 to receive it. I only paid GGR, not the shipping company. This situation is at a standstill, and GGR has been rude and unreasonable. Spread awareness to avoid dealing with this.
