You can’t currently buy this bar.The Amazon listing for the Synergee stand-up open trap bar has been removed outright — the ASIN no longer returns a product record at all, so there is no price, no stock status and no page to send you to. Synergee still lists the bar on its own store as the Open Frame Hex Bar, but it is showing sold outthere as well. We’ve pulled the buy link rather than leave you clicking through to nothing, and we’ve taken it out of the roundup and the specialty-bars hub. Our current open-frame pick is the CAP Deluxe open trap bar.
We only rank products we can show a live, dated price for. That rule is why this bar comes off the rankings even though it hasn’t been formally discontinued — a recommendation you can’t act on isn’t a recommendation. If Synergee restocks it and it returns to a listing we can price, it goes back in the running on the same terms as everything else.
We keep pages like this one up instead of deleting them. If you bought on our recommendation, you should be able to find what we said and why; and if you’re searching for this bar because you already own one, you deserve a straight answer about its status rather than a redirect to a different product pretending to be the same thing.
What it was, and why we picked it
The Synergee was an open-back trap bar— the rear rail of the hexagon left out, so you could step through and walk the bar forward. That one change is what separates an open bar from a closed one: loaded carries, farmer’s walks and walking lunges all become possible instead of being fenced off by a closed loop of steel. It took 2-inch Olympic sleeves, so it loaded the same plates as any barbell, and it held the open-frame slot in our best trap bar roundup on that basis. Our open vs closed trap bar guide explains the format in full.
The other half of the case was the stand-up design. The bar tilted onto built-in legs so it sat vertically, which meant you slid plates on at waist height instead of crouching over a frame lying flat on the floor. It sounds like a small thing and it is — right up until you’re changing weights between every set. That detail, more than anything else, is what justified paying a premium over a plain closed hex, and it’s the thing no bar currently on our list replaces.
What replaced it
The open-frame slot now belongs to the CAP Deluxe open trap bar, which answers the same brief for less money with a different set of trade-offs. You get the same walk-in geometry for carries and lunges, plus high and low handlesand the same 2-inch Olympic fitment. What you don’t get is the stand-up loading — the CAP lies flat, so plates go on off the floor — and the finish and welds are budget-tier rather than specialist. If the walk-in format was why you were here, it covers it; if the self-standing loading was the draw, nothing we can currently price replaces that, and we’d rather say so than pretend otherwise.
If carries were never really the point and you only wanted the back-friendly pull, a closed hex does that job for less again — our CAP trap bar review covers the value closed bar, and the trap-bar roundup ranks the whole field with a live price on each.
