This is the best bushing bar on the market hands down! Vulcan Strength went above and beyond in design and build quality on this bar. As the owner of a Crossfit gym in San Diego, I have had the privilege of using a LOT of different bushing and bearing bars and this bar crushes the competition. For those of you who need a benchmark comparison: compared to the Rogue Ohio Bar, the Vulcan Elite Bushing Bar has more whip, a slightly deeper knurling with a very passive center knurl and better spin. Pros: - Fantastic Whip - Exceptional Spin - "Grippy" knurling + black oxide finish = grippy feel like a chalked bar without destroying your hands - It sounds like a solid bar when dropped instead of the usual death rattle of most bars Cons: Your other bars will just collect dust once you have one of these beasts.
