Product Summary
The Rogue Fitness MG-4c Multi-Grip Camber Bar is a patent-pending design that offers you rotating sleeves as well as options for the width and angle of the handles. Essentially, you can build this bar any way you want it for your training.
Select from several options:
- A short bar with 9-inch loadable sleeves
- A standard bar with 15.5-inch loadable sleeves
Both options come in either Rogue’s proprietary matte black finish or in stainless steel (stainless steel is an additional charge for the upgrade).
There are straight handles that come with your purchase. Rogue also gives you the choice to purchase additional handle pairs at 16 or 20 degrees, available in both finishes. Each handle can be added to the frame in 1-inch-spaced intervals, giving a number of options for close-grip work, tricep-specific movements, or simply adjusting the width of the handles to accommodate your frame.
On the MG-4C, there is a 3.5-inch camber drop.
The bar arrives unassembled but with all the tools necessary to put it together.
