Sud Bar Pull Up Bar - excellent product
I've made many different pull up bars, trying to save money. Yet this product is worth every penny. It is easy to install and bomber solid. I'm an avid "CrossFitter" - the bar doesn't budge, even with my most violent kipping pull ups.
At first, the bar was a bit too smooth for my taste. A bit of fine grain sand paper gave it a more secure feel for me.
I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a rock solid pull up bar.

Sturdy product, bad quality control. Check it over before mounting.
I purchased and installed the small (8 foot ceiling) bar.
Pros: the bar and mounting hardware are very sturdy. Plenty of head clearance when I do pull ups when I installed it in a basement ceiling height that is 7'8". Works well with TRX suspension trainer. This blows away a door mounted bar except it is slippery; need to rough up the paint.
Cons: this bar's brackets has two mounting holes to mount at 10 inches or 14 inches. The hole on one bracket was ovaled/pushed in. So in effect I could not use that mounting position. I used the 14 inch location. The bar itself was slightly bent. I didn't notice until I mounted everything. Non of this occurred in shipping as the boxes were in perfect shape and the paint was not chipped or stratched. I emailed pictures to Mark at Studbar.com. His only recommendation was to unmount/rebox and send back to Amazon, since that is who I bought it from. I had thrown away the boxes the night before when I unpacked it...
Solid but needs improvement for the price
Like other reviewers have stated, this is SOLID! If you're doing P90X, do yourself a favor and spend a few extra dollars and get out of that door frame. You'll be amazed at how much more work you can do on this thing. Once installed, it does not budge. Here are my pros & cons
The good:
- SOLID, solid, solid. Oh, did I say it's solid? No side to side swing and definitely no rocking front to back. I have it mounted on drywall in our partially finished room above the garage (So happy to be out of a door frame!).
-The welds are tough, the bar is attached securely by bolts
-Design is great for stability
-Nice powder-coat finish
-Bar is just the right thickness for grip
-Ability to adjust bar height with different positions depending on your ceiling height.
My gripes:
-The bar is powder-coated and not knurled. If your hands get the least bit sweaty, goodbye grip! You MUST wear gloves. They should have knurled this bar for the price...

- Small bar is for 8 foot ceilings. Optional settings allow bar to hang 10" or 14" below ceiling
