CAP Barbell’s 20-inch V-Shape Bar (MB-320) is a straightforward chrome cable attachment for triceps pushdowns, biceps curls, and lat pulldowns on any selectorized cable station. It’s built from solid rolled steel with diamond knurling throughout for a secure grip, rubber bumper ends to protect floors and equipment if it’s dropped, and multiple grip positions to hit different heads of the triceps and biceps.

It’s priced and positioned as a budget accessory rather than a premium attachment, and independent owner sentiment reflects that: GymRadar’s six reviewers average 2.89/5, with Performance rated the weakest of the tracked sub-scores and Value the strongest.

What is a Cable Attachment?

What cable attachments are

Cable attachments are the handles and bars that clip to a cable machine, functional trainer, or lat/row station to change the exercise — lat bars, triceps ropes, single-D handles, row/close-grip handles, ankle straps, and more. A small set of them turns one cable stack into dozens of movements.

What to look for

A rotating swivel or ball-bearing joint keeps the cable from twisting and lets the handle track your arm; comfortable, durable grips (knurled metal, rubber, or coated nylon) survive heavy use; and a standard carabiner or snap fits most machines. Match the attachment to the exercises you actually train rather than buying a giant kit you won’t use.

CAP Barbell’s V-Shape Bar (MB-320) is a straightforward, inexpensive chrome cable attachment for triceps pushdowns, biceps curls, and lat pulldowns on any selectorized cable station. Its standout dimension is value: at a $28.99 list price it’s among the cheapest ways to add a dedicated V-bar to a cable setup, and it’s the highest of the three sub-scores GymRadar owners report. Its weakest dimension is functionality/performance – the same GymRadar sample rates Performance the lowest of the tracked sub-scores, and independent editorial coverage of this specific chrome model is thin: the closest roundup mention (BarBend’s “Best Grips” V-bar pick) actually describes CAP’s separate rubber-handgrip model, not this plain steel bar, so that praise doesn’t transfer here. Treat it as a functional budget accessory rather than a proven standout.

  • +Value: $28.99 list price makes it one of the cheapest dedicated V-bar cable attachments available (manufacturer)
  • +Value: GymRadar owners rate Value the strongest of the three tracked sub-scores at 3.33/5 (GymRadar)
  • +Build quality: solid rolled-steel construction with diamond knurling throughout for a secure grip, even sweaty-handed (Iron Company)
  • +Durability: rubber bumper ends protect both the bar and gym flooring/equipment if dropped (Iron Company; manufacturer)
  • +Functionality: multiple grip positions work triceps pushdowns, biceps curls, and lat pullovers on any selectorized cable station (manufacturer; Iron Company)
  • Functionality: GymRadar's 6 owner reviews rate Performance the weakest of the three tracked sub-scores at 2.50/5
  • Build quality: despite "solid rolled steel" marketing language, owner build-quality sentiment is only middling at 2.83/5 (GymRadar)
  • Versatility: independent coverage of this specific chrome SKU is thin -- the nearest editorial mention (BarBend's "Best Grips" pick) actually describes CAP's separate rubber-handgrip model, so its praise can't be credited here
  • Value: overall owner sentiment (2.89/5 across 6 reviews) sits below the midpoint, tempering the otherwise affordable price
