The Dane 2.0 features a half rack in the front with a commercial grade functional trainer built into the rack. The combination of squat rack & functional trainer in one provides a smaller footprint (and lower price point) than two stand alone units. With a length of only 60” from front to back, The Dane 2.0 is extremely space efficient for all the functionality it brings to the table. The squat rack is sturdy, commercial grade, and includes a pair of low-profile spotter arms for performing squats outside the rack. The pulley system is also highly adjustable, allowing you to customize the angle, range of motion, and resistance for each exercise.
One of the biggest upgrades on the Dane 2.0 is the improved top plate design, which has been reduced from 10lbs to 5lbs based on user feedback. Many lifters requested a lighter starting weight for more precise adjustments, especially for isolation exercises, rehab work, and beginner-friendly training. We've also added a dedicated hole for the selector pin when using only the top plate, making it easier and more secure to lock in your starting weight.
We’ve also re-engineered the weight stack design to be more compact, which increases cable travel outside of the rack. The Dane 1.0 allowed for 5 feet of cable movement, but the Dane 2.0 extends nearly 6 feet, giving you more freedom for full-range movements. Despite this increased range of motion, the Dane 2.0 maintains its dual 160lb weight stacks with a 1:1 pulley ratio, delivering true-to-weight resistance in a compact footprint.
The Dane 2.0 is also equipped with upgraded aluminum pulleys featuring a wider pulley channel, which minimizes friction and drag. This ensures a more direct force transfer and an overall smoother pull.
Unlike other systems that require you to spend hundreds more on essential accessories, the Dane 2.0 includes five attachments at no additional charge, a value of over $600. With these five additional attachments, the Dane 2.0 delivers a versatile training setup right out of the box, making it one of the most comprehensive and cost-effective functional trainers on the market today.
