Product Summary
The Grey Man Gear Simmons Swiss Bar is a patent-pending Swiss bar claimed by Grey Man Gear to be the most versatile bar on the market. Its unique design comes with adjustable handles that enable five different grip positions, eight grip widths, in addition to its three center handles. Adjustments can be done without a tool, which allows for quick changes between users or exercises. According to Grey Man Gear, the multiple hand positions were designed to encourage a wide variety of movements.
Weighing 45-pounds, this Swiss bar will fit in both power racks and half racks. This bar measures 82 inches long and 11 inches wide which, according to reviews, may feel awkward during some exercises. In particular, users found the width to feel clunky when performing overhead presses and farmer’s carry. One other thing to note regarding the design is that the handles are not powdered coated, which means the raw steel has the potential to rust.
