I don't usually comment on videos but wanted to say that you did a great job with this review! Others haven't shown anything about the setup process, and I loved the Q&A at the end. Thanks for the video!
I love that your reviews are not sales-y or overly critical of things that don't really matter. Knocked this one out of the park man! and thanks for the comment feature lol
I appreciate you saying that. I definitely tried to avoid doing a typical review. Thanks for participating in the questions. It really helps to make sure I cover things I wouldn’t have thought of.
Awesome review! I like how much you showed of the install, the other reviews didn’t show the install process and it’s great to know that you should put the trolley on first. Also, great answers to my questions plus all the other community questions. Keep it up, bro!
Awesome, glad you liked it. After seeing Glucks and Coops videos I was glad I took a different approach with mine. I think questions from the community is something I’ll incorporate in every review from now on.
You mentioned clearance for lat pull down but I’d love to see a measurement of the seat at the lowest position and when the cable ball thing starts when at the highest setting. I say atx have this measurement on one of their lat pulldown machines and I think it would help if this was normalized so we could compare
I had the same trolley issue with my straydog carriage assemblies. Went to try to just install them and had to do disassembly. The fit seemed better though
Best review out there so far. Sorry man one other question... I asked you earlier about cutting uprights to fit my bssement. Do you think if I wanted this just as a lat pulldown I can keep the top piece and not thread the cable through the trolley that moves up and down? The top part looks a little bit like the slinger and then that way the cable is on top of you vs out in front?
Jealous this fits in your basement gym!!! I really wanted to buy this but my ceiling is only 90 inches. Im pretty handy... being a diy guy do you think this could be modified for a lower ceiling height
I thought about that a lot before actually assembling it in my gym. I think it is possible. You’d need to cut down the uprights and cut down the guide rods. Once you got the rack in place, you’d need to modify the length of the cables. There’s not a lot of room for error but it can be done.
@KaizenDIYGym awesome! Appreciate the response. Never sure if the guide rods are threaded if that would be an issue. I want this for a lat pulldown not really a ft and I'm short so not worried about rom.
Also to clarify Kyles answer on why he switched and needed more footprint, I know him personally and the REAL answer is more room for more belt squats 😅
Which way do the numbers go on the bottom two braces in between the posts? 1 starting in the back to the front or the other way around? The directions are truly terrible :)
I have a question: my gym is a building I had built that measures 16x20 with decent height ceilings. However there is a structural support beam going right down the middle when I’d like to eventually put either a Dane or possibly an Ares depending on my money situation and availability. The beam is 90” off the floor and only a single 2” beam. Will the Dane fit if I straddle the beam down the center of the rack?
Am about to order from Harbor Heavyweight.. How do you like it? Any attachments you have put on? Would love to see it in a home if you have a social media presence 🙏🏼🙏🏼
THIS is why we gotta support content creators! This likely will save HOURS for those who assembled without putting the carriage trolley on first
That’s right man, I make the mistakes so the viewers don’t have to!

Glad you liked it. I tried taking a different approach in an attempt to differentiate my video from the others out there.
Thanks for watching!

This was my favorite Dane video so far !
Heck yeah, thanks Mike!
I really appreciate that you filmed the assembly 👍Ive seen a few reviews and they were good, but you nailed it 🏋♂️
Awesome, glad you liked it!
Damn, how many Danes did Fringe send out? Looks great! Too bad shipping to Canada is like the price of another Dane! LOL.
Must be why they are sold out already! They sent their whole stock to youtube reviewers.😂
@@coramdeo9341 yeah, I bet 😂
By my count, they sent 4 - Coop, Gluck, Matt Pendergraph, and myself.
Less units than freak athlete sent out of their Nordic hyper 😅

I was viben to the background music. The mistakes/corrections made were priceless! 11/10!
Awesome! Sounds pike we have a similar taste in music. Glad you enjoyed my mistakes too.
Thanks for the weight stack hack when it clang clang bangs, had a couple do that to me
Awesome! Glad I could help!
Dang it sold out before you could even make your video that’s crazy!
I’m not surprised. It’s a pretty good deal.
thanks for the video
I’m glad you enjoyed it
Great review. Basement gym looks great.
Awesome, thank you!
I had the same trolley issue with my straydog carriage assemblies. Went to try to just install them and had to do disassembly. The fit seemed better though
Yeah, I probably should have paid closer attention to the instructions
Looks nice for the price I tried to order however they are out of stock for the next 4 months.Great review
Looks like a pretty sweet setup
It is really awesome. I love it.

Interesting. I hadn’t thought of that but I do think it’ll work.
How’s the lat seat? Still pretty stable without the hitch pin in the back?
The seat feels solid. I didn’t use it without the hitch pin but it should be fine.
Does it come in plate loaded? I NEED it to come in plate loaded...

Very true!
@@KaizenDIYGym love it!!

I think that’s up to you. It’s a matter of preference.

That’s cutting it close but I think it should fit. That’s similar to my set up.
Have huge issue with the center selector rod hitting the 20lb plate on both sides. Not cool for something I had to pay 2500 for. Is there a fix ?
Yes, the fix is in the video you just commented on
Can you attach their belt squat to this
Are you talking about the Mammoth belt squat that I helped design?! Why yes sir, it can be attached to this rack!
@@KaizenDIYGym I didn’t know you helped design that. That’s awesome and sweet!
I got mine from harbor heavyweights the HH81
These dudes from fringe are late to the party
Naw, party still jumping. Quality and value are going up while prices are remaining steady or even dropping.
Am about to order from Harbor Heavyweight.. How do you like it? Any attachments you have put on? Would love to see it in a home if you have a social media presence 🙏🏼🙏🏼
You get more usable weight with fringe though
soooooo, this is just another knock off of other's doing the same 1:1 ratio. I have the Fray fitness savage series functional trainer.
All in One.... ??? No Smith machine absolutely no all in One. !!!
Yeah, I guess we have different definitions for an “All in one” machine
@@KaizenDIYGym what ??? All in One Is all in One stop! Doesn t exist different definition !!!!
