I am upgrading my speed bag platform. I need something that is adjustabe. I plan on spending $250 - $500, but could go a little higher if there is a good reason.
There are 3 in particular that I have been looking at.
1) TITLE Boxing Precision Adjustable Speed Bag Platform - normal price is $500, on sale for $250 (maybe this is always on sale, I just started looking). It looks like the worm drive would make adjustment very easy. Weight is 70 lbs.
2) Balazs i-Box Speed Bag Platform - $229. It seems to be popular on this forum. Weight is 47 lbs, according to Amazon.
3) Balazs Twelve Inch Adjustable Speed Bag Platform for $669. This is more than I would like to pay but maybe there is a big difference in performance. It weighs 74 pounds and has a 1.75" solid maple drum.
I have only seen pictures of these. Can anyone that has used these make any comments? When compared to the Balazs i-Box, the Title is quite a bit heavier (partially due to the worm drive) so maybe it is more solidly built?
Would the Balazs Twelve Inch Adjustable perform a lot better than the other 2?
Thanks for any information on these platforms or any other platform in this price range that you think I should consider.
