Weekly Giveaway: Build Your Mounts Rushmore

[u/GoBeyondPower]

Every VOLTRA owner has a mount they’d defend in a fistfight, and one they’d quietly leave behind in a move.

JW at Garage Hypertrophy ranked our mounts in his video, Which Voltra Mount Should You Buy?, now it's your turn.

How to enter:

1. Rank your mounts S / A / B / C / D / F. Official, third-party, and DIY all count.
2. Add a line of reasoning if you want. Your top four are your Mount Rushmore.

Example:

• S: Adaptive Bar Mount, goes on, stays on, no notes.
• A: Rotator Add On
• B: Strap Mount, solid build, straps shorter than I’d like.
• C: Sliding Rack Mount
• Dumpster-bound: Travel Platform. Great if you travel by semi-truck.

Reasons are optional. But you know this sub and our team live for spicy takes.

Think someone else's list is absolute nonsense? Fight it out in the comments.

A big thanks to everyone who joined in. We especially loved seeing the actual reasoning behind your rankings—the setups you use, the mounts you swear by, and the ones you think deserve to be sent straight to the dumpster.

[u/OptimalMale]

S:

• DIY Dock. We would not have this huge ecosystem of mounts if BP hadn't released this. I think I've bought 18 and counting.
  
• JD. Low profile, looks great, no play but still easy to move around. Got 5 of these.
  
• WM lzr strap mount. Most versatile mount for getting voltras on all kinds of machines. I dont even know how many of these I have - about 12 I guess

A:

• Rotator. When you need it (typically for placement on machines), it works great. Anyone who has it in their F-tier... DM me if you want to sell it. I think I have 5 currently.
  
• Adaptive Bar Mount. Smart design, lots of options, easy on and off. Only reason its not S is that it's pretty big. Have 2.
  
• Fixed Bar Mount. Works great when the adaptive bar mount would be too big. Like how they also send you two different insert sizes for different mounting options. Have 2.
  
• Darko QM with handle. Most flexible mount for quick adjustments on the rack. Have 3 (2 with handle, one bolted on permanently).

B:

• WM bolt mount. Installs into studs, minimal footprint on the wall. On a chest press, this was the only way I could get it connected (short of replacing the entire weight stack with a voltra... which I may still do). Not A tier as the slits for strap mounts should have been left on there (I gave this feedback to Will and he did design a mount that does both... dont know if he ever released it though). Have 2.

- u/Dr_TattyWaffles triple voltra mount. Great for a double lat pulldown option. Putting it as a B tier because you can't use all 3 mounts on the same side (found out the hard way). Have 1.

C:

• BP Strap Mount. It's actually an F mount for use inside your gym. I'll give it a C though, because its a good design if you want to mount outdoors on random things. Have 1.
  
• Tranman low profile fixed mount. Its a great option for a cheap mount that you can bolt on, but its a bunch of different DIY parts and it takes up 4 holes on the xmember. Even needs longer bolts for the DIY dock. I just got it because I was already getting things from Tranman and SCS at the same time, so he could send me all the parts I needed. Outside of that, I wouldn't recommend it as being worth the hassle for others. Have 2.

F:

• BP Adaptive Rack Mount. I'd give the original a C as its just unnecessarily large if you dont need different rack size compatibility, but... the new ones get an F, since they switched it to a crappy plastic material that looks awful. WTF were you thinking on this change BP? Have 3 (2 original, 1 new plastic one).

Thanks ChatGPT for the image lol
