Preacher Curl Pad for SB/PRO

First I’d like to quickly point of three flaws that can make or break for some. While the first and last adjustment works perfect for me it would have been nice if the pad’s height could be adjusted slightly. Second flaw is if you’re going slightly heavy with say an EZ curl and around 60+ pounds total from experience the bench can slightly lift up behind you as you get set. It isn’t a huge problem because the moment you are set and sitting, the bench won’t move but can tilt again when setting the bar back onto the holder. It does not affect the overall workout and can be fixed by placing 45 plate or plates(one on each corner) behind you. Last flaw is the metal holder is pretty thin and close making loading anything more than 10 pounds each side very difficult. I load my ez curl on the floor then place it on the holder no issues, I bought a 3D printed cradle from aperture engineering to help with the metal on metal plus helps keep my ez curl slightly stable when loading under 15 on each side . \r\n\r\nOverall great attachment , arguably the best bicep and forearm workouts now easily accessible. Works and sits really well with the ultimate row attachment.

Great addition to any weight bench with a two by two-inch straight opening and is very stable with the proper tightening bolts. The pad is wide enough for anyone to use and the three adjustments help to change the pad angles for easier to harder movements. I agree, it would be helpful to have numerous holes in the metal connector to allow up and down movement of the pad for shorter or taller people.

Good pad, I like the grip and the angle adjustment, and it's sturdy enough for my needs. \r\n\r\nMy only complaint is it could use some height adjustment. I'm something of a manlet (5'8") and am barely comfortable sitting over the pad given how high it sits, and have to angle myself a bit uncomfortably to get in a proper position for preacher curls. It makes it so I have to do single arms, no double arm curls. I don't think my wife would be able to use it at all.

The new grip vinyl is very nice. The pad sits solid, as long as you fully tighten the attachment bolt. I followed a previous review (Rob), and placed 1/2-ID silicone hose on the bar catch. These slide on nicely with a little liquid soap. I also slit a couple silicon tube pieces lengthwise to place on the vertical portion of the catch bars and secured them with gorilla tape. My 28mm curl bar sits nicely now without metal-to-metal contact. 3-yards of silicone hose is $6 on Amazon and you need less than 12 inches for this fix. Ironmaster should consider making this standard, even if it raises the price $1. Good attachment for the Superbench V2.
