Poor Bolt Quality And Unresponsive Support

I wanted to like this trap bar, but the hardware quality was disappointing. The main issue was the bolt used to secure the sleeves. The bolt stripped on my first trap bar, so I exchanged it for a replacement. Unfortunately, the exact same thing happened on the replacement unit, which makes me think this is a design or material quality issue rather than a one-off defect. I even drove to a Dick’s Sporting Goods store so they could inspect it. I also reached out to Dick’s Sporting Goods support and asked if they could simply send a replacement bolt instead of replacing the entire trap bar. They agreed and said someone would follow up with shipping details, but I never heard back. At that point, I decided to return the trap bar and spend a little more on a Bells of Steel trap bar. The difference in build quality was immediately noticeable.

Well-built And Right-priced

I am a retired soldier navigating staying healthy despite all the injuries from 20+ years of service. To that end, I've had to stop doing barbell deadlifts because of lower back injuries. I can do kettlebell and dumbbell so I wanted to get a trap bar for heavier lifts that still protected my back. The Ethos open trap bar is great for a variety of reasons. 1. The built-in jack-stands are a back-saver when it comes to loading and unloading the bar. 2. The grips have just the right knurling to allow me to hold on without grinding my hands to bits. 3. The open design means I can do much more than is possible with a hexagonal or closed trap bar. I do lunges, farmers carries, and even used it as a yoke. The price is great. Assembly was easy. Everything feels sturdy and like it will last. 10/10, highly recommend.

Love This Bar!

Excellent bar. Perfectly balanced and extremely rigid. This bar feels as solid as any Olympic trap bar. I have had 4 plates on each side (360 additional lbs total) and detect no flex whatsoever. Loading plates is fast and easy with the built-in feet. This bar arrives in three main sections - the feet, grips, and the bars. The preassembled grip sections of my bar were not tightened enough and the grips spun. I needed to use the included Allen wrenches to really tighten down on both sides of the grip simultaneously and now they don't budge.

Please Don't Buy This.

Very disappointed in this bar. For something with 1,000lb weight capacity you would expect clean & gap free welds and handles that don't spin..... This is merely an expensive grip training tool that ETHOS pretends is a quality trap bar. Not ideal for heavy lifting, farmers carries, weighted plyometrics, or anything a trap bar is used for as the spinning handles will be the limiting factor in most movement patterns. Wish my store would've had this in-stock so I could try before buying.

Great Results!

Trap bar really takes the stress off your lower back when performing cleans. Being able to walk into it and pull directly up is awesome.

Great Value And Functionality

Love this bar for at home workouts and great price for a trap bar!

Employee

Great Design!

I like the ability to load the plates while it is upright and then when im working out its easy to go right into squats. The diamond knurling on the top of the bar and the handles makes for a secure grip.

Super Functional!!

Like that it can stand up while putting plates on it. So much better than a regular trap bar

Employee

Easy To Load Weight

I like that you can stand this up and easily add or remove weights. The open piece to it makes farmers carrys with this easier.
