On the pull-up bar the two bars going into the frame, is there enough room between the bar and the frame to do parallel grip pull-ups on these?

Medium hand (I'm 6ft tall, 185 and lanky) - and I do parallel grip...just enough room

I can just manage to fit my hands in this space to use a neutral grip. I like to think I have average sized hands for a grown man. As long as you don't have meaty bear paws for hands, you should be all right.

You can do close grip pull ups and chin ups I. E. Pinkies touching on the inside of the middle part (the neutral grip pull up grip part)

Between both posts there is 45 inches. I can fit a sixty inch bar with enough room for quite a few weights on each side

If you can move the grips and shifters off of the bar, these would slide down anywhere on the bar. Not sure if the angles would be right. I havs seen something similar mounted on the middle of the bar. Not sure it would have the same effect.

Not near the machine but the bar is wide enough for nice wide grip pull ups. It is as wide as anyone would need it

These are more suited to Australian type pull ups. I have more training to do before I can do at least 10 standard type pull ups, so I got these and use them in the Australian format. I'm getting stronger and plan on using the in the door frame type bar then. If you get these hoping to sort of have a set of rings attached to the wall, you may be wishing you could shorten them by 10 ft, they really aren't meant for that. You MAY be able to tie a knot close to the handle to achieve that, but then it would weaken the webbing.

It sits far enough out for you to do traditional pull ups. But if you're like me and use your legs as assistance on occasion, you might have some issues. I don't really have that may issues though. Obviously you'd just want to mount it high enough.

I have Olympic Rings set up in this bar and usually can do ring push-ups, dips, and ring rows without issues. However, this bar does have a lot of movement and tends to sway when applying more complicated movements. Hopefully this is helpful.

Ahhh...on the handlebars. :D I have bar ends, and I moved my grips in a inch and they fit perfectly between the grip and the bar end.

No, that is really too tight of a space to put your hand around the bar and grip well.

Yes. There is sufficient distance between the two racks so that your bikes should not touch. However, you will need to load the bikes in opposite directions to ensure the handle bars don't touch.

Yes. The higher handles are easier to use if you have limited hip flexibility. The lower handles offer a greater range of motion. Great bar!

I also have a pull up bar on my door frame. I find it easy to place the dip attachment on the pull bar frame, no problem at all at my home. The only challenge is that when you don't want the dip attachment connected, it is rather large and it takes up space when trying to store it in your bedroom or non gym room.

If you are asking, Peter, then you likely are a pull-up aficianado and, for us, this is not wide enough. A straight bar of 5 feet would be better for guys like us.

These grips are pretty wide. The grip surface area is about 4 1/2 inches, not including the bar end portion. You should be good. Be careful when you tighten the bolt that secures the barend, I snapped it off and had buy another set of grips. The other Ergon grips were different and smaller, the GP2 was much wider as I mentioned above
