Fitness Concept. Special order from catalogue. About RM2k.
Or if you know of a friend or relative with a metalworking shop, have it custom made. |

2k for a rack is pretty good value, but then again, the quality might be an issue

If you are in Penang, there is a place called Olympic (opposite CRC & near Gleneagles hospital )
They have a power rack there (ready stock). If I am not mistaken, its around Rm1.5k-Rm2k |

You'd probably have better luck getting a custom made version. It's like finding a needle in a haystack.

manage to look at a post made last year,
body solid is available tru transmark locally, but these ppl set-up gyms, u wana ask them bring in 1 power rack for u... don't be surprise if they quote u more than 5K just for the rack... http://www.bodysolid.com/Dealer_Locator.cfm?Country=Malaysia http://www.transmark.com.my/sfl/index.php?...nts-item&id=821 the DHgym claims that they manufacture locally, but last time i call them, already quote a few K... somemore not locally made. if u can find mass produced gym stuff frm china, like those sold in carefour, then it will be cheap... other wise will have to look for a welder to do the job.. |

He was supposed to get back to me with pics of the actual power rack that he owns, but he hasn't replied me since December. The pic that he has put on his ad in Lowyat, and a pic which he sent me in a message were both different, and copied from the internet! That's why I asked him for a pic of the ACTUAL power rack. I guess he's busy, or something. Maybe you'll have better luck! This post has been edited by volvoc304: Jan 30 2013, 10:13 PM |
