    Anyone own/have access to one of these?

    X-3 Series Flat Foot Power Rack
    – Titan Fitness


    If so please do me a favor and measure the "inside height" from the floor to the bottom of one of the horizontal front-to-back connecting frames.

    Currently sold in 82" and 91" height, let me know which height you have and I can figure the rest out from your measurement.

    And what do you think of the rack?

    Thank you.

    PS: I did ask customer service and the email said they are unable to provide that information.

    The manufacturer is unable to provide the answer to a simple question about their equipment? Then go to a better manufacturer.

    Yep, shitty customer service no doubt and I told them as much. But the 82" model fits my space better, is otherwise almost identical to a 92" Rogue offering for a few hundred less, and gets mostly positive reviews.

    Main differences between the Titan and Rogue are better tolerances and steel on the Rogue and the Rogue is US made vs Chinese made for Titan.

    I have the X3 short squat stand and I'm really happy with it.

    Dave,

    I have that exact rack. The taller version. I love the rack and have no complaints at all about it. I have had it for about 2 years and have had no issues.

    The measurement from the floor to the bottom of that piece is 86 3/4”. I do believe the actual height is slightly more than 91” to the top of the post. Let me know if you would like any more information or have any more questions about it.

    Thank you.

    I have a T2 right now. It's nothing fancy and has worked out well, but the X-3 should be more stable and maybe safer for benching w/ the 1" hole spacing.

    Did you get the "pin and pipe" safeties or the "flip-down" safety bars? Happy with those also?

    Thanks again.

    I actually have the “strap” style safeties that I primarily use. I also have a set of pin and pipe that I picked up used as well as the x-3 safety arms.

    I primarily use the strap safeties when squatting and benching. They are a little more work to get the exact height correct for benching, but once it’s set I just mark my holes.

    My wife tends to use the safety arms and squat in front of the rack.

    All these racks are junk compared to the SS Rack: Starting Strength Power Rack (original depth) – TSS

    A lot of money, but the best equipment you will ever train with.
