Good bar, nice knurling. Wait time was the only issue. Wiped it down before first use, it had oil to preserve it on the surface. Rollers rotate like they should not too much and not too little. This has room for at least 6 or more plates per side so its better for at home use where space is limited. I would prefer a shorter bar and thicker grip area (to make up for reduced weight) but it seems they do not exist. Unless you plan on using more than 400 or so pounds there is no need for the typical huge 7ft bars at home, A wide racking area is all you need. What do you say Titan? Thicker bar and shorter rollers to accommodate 4 plates per side and a safety clamp. My safety clamps are 2inch and plates are 1-1/4 inches for the 45 lb plates. 7 inch rollers is enough for 99% of people on the planet. So leave the rack/grip area as is, increase bar thickness and reduce rollers to 7inch. Now you have a perfect home gym barbell.
