Another dip bars question….( I know..sorry.:( )

[aqua girl]

it is so much easier for me to grip the bars than the Fit Tower which is quite a bit bigger around.

Could someone that has the bars measure how many inches around the top of the bar is…2 places..
where the padded portion is (like for the dips) and on top where there is no padding, like where you hold for chin-ups, etc. I, too, like Peaceful Rainbow, have smaller hands and I know what you mean
about the Tower padded bar being thick around. I measured around the FitTower(s) padded bar, and
one was just about 5 in. Around and the other was about 5 1/4 inches. I guess there is a small variance in them? I would appreciate it.

The STS bar without the foam pad is about 4 inches around. The portion that is padded comes in just under or at 5 inches which is a bit more than 1/4 inch smaller than the fit tower bar with foam. The foam on the STS Bars is a bit more firm than that of the fit tower which gives the overall grip strength a different feel.
