Sup guys,
Hoping that there are some Ausbrah's out there to help me figure this out (or anyone who knows what Australia can get a hold of). Been looking through threads for a good 2 days and still can't decide.
I'm pretty much after the best power rack I can get with $1000-1500. Given i don't have heaps of room in my garage, i can't get a commercial one unless it somehow isn't a monster in size.
- I'd ideally like it to have a quality upper/lower pulley attachment <-- quite important
- A good pull-up/chin-up bar
- Possibly a dip attachment
I know i'm looking for a lot in 1 piece of equipment, but i don't have much choice, once I get the rack, my available garage space is no more.
Based on the research I have done, one option that seems available to me is the powertec power rack. It actually would work quite well given that the new safeties don't require as much room when being interchanged.
However, my only issue with this is that i see there is some negative views on its pull up bars, and also, after watching this, i'm not sure if the pulley is high enough, it looks like he can't fully extend sometimes (for what it's worth, im 6'1"). Also, i noticed an issue at 5:40 when he did some curls, but I think i'm just getting a bit picky.

ANYWAY, i know the powertec power rack exists, can you guys tell me if there is something else i should consider, or if that is probably my best bet.
And sorry for being so picky, but being a uni student, $1500 is a fair bit for me to spend on something, so it needs to suit me perfectly.
