USER CONTEXT
Version One of this P-Bar shows a dramatic angle shape, reflecting the attitude that inspired the design, cutting edge, modern, effective, and technologically improved. A piece of equipment that will help you push your limits with a functional and efficient design. It allows setting the mini p-bars to various heights from 9" to 18", exploding endless possibilities of exercises and increasing or decreasing the difficulty.
In terms of manufacturing, the design increase the steps. The handlebar tubing has to be cut into three-piece and then weld together. The latter will increase production time. But the design choice was made to gain a slick design that will empower the presence of the product and invite the user to have an enjoyable practice. Version Two will benefit the manufacturing aspects to have a more efficient fabrication process.

DESIGN DETAILING
The ergonomic grip is designed for comfortability and releases stress to the hand when performing movements or static holds. Designed with a hexagonal geometric pattern, which helps to move out sweat and heat from the hand, it is also a design asset that emphasizes the design's straight angles and overall geometry.
USER CONTEXT
Version Two is a design that doesn't abandon the elegant, clean, and futurist style of the p-bar but favors a more efficient manufacturing process.
Relying on bend tubing so the bar handle will be made of one tubing piece, the p-bar will cut downtime, materials , and workforce.
Yet, the design keeps its emphasis on the proper use of technology and design coherence. This version has edges more rounded yet geometrically sharp.
