“My new favorite t-shirt! Super comfortable and fits well. The light, durable material blend and awesome design makes this shirt great for training in and for wearing around casually.”

“I've been using this bar for the past month, and love it. Knurling is aggressive without being too sharp or deep. It provides great contact with the bar without being uncomfortable. Spin is comparable to much more expensive bars, like my Werksan competition bar; it spins smoothly without the excessive play sometimes round on cheaper bearing bars.”

“High quality bar for exceptional price. Packaging was good and very prompt. Good spin. Everything you'd want in an economy priced multi-use barbell for crossfit with olympic and light(er) powerlifting. Nice finish. The black Oxide does scratch fairly easily, but not super noticeable and this is purely cosmetic.”

“I just reviewed a different bar we bought from Vulcan, and I love it. As thrilled as I am with the performance in that bar, I am equally disappointed in this bar. I understand this is a lower grade bushing bar. I've lifted on a number of beater bushing bars over the last 5 years. So I had an idea what to expect with this one. But this has come in drastically under those expectations. It has virtually no spin to it. Fresh out of the box, with plenty of grease to spare, it would barely spin 1 way around before stopping. We have a number of Rogue beater bars at our gym that have been roughed up for 3+ years that perform better than this one did brand new. Vulcan is doing great things. I love the other bar I bought (amazing value and performance). However I think the mark was missed with this bar, The Good: Shipping and customer service were amazing. We live in MT and the bar got to us 3 days after purchasing. The packaging was really secure. The bar has a really nice look to it and has good knurling.”

“I have slowly been buying equipment for a lifting platform in my garage. I was finally at the stage where I was ready to buy a bar. In the last 5 years or so I have lifted regularly on DHS, Elieko, and Rogue Burgener bars. I was looking to buy a bearing bar that performed well, but was a manageable cost. I took a gamble on this Vulcan bar after never using one, but I had heard good things. I have been pleasantly surprised with this bar. I wanted to wait a few weeks before writing a review so I could really get a feel for this bar. The bar spins great, no issues, no sticking, nothing. It has very nice whip to it as well. I really like the knurling. It isn't crazy aggressive like an American Barbell, but it isn't made for people with dish washer's hands like the Rogue Bars. Just the right amount. I would say this is one of the best "bang for your buck" bars out there. Well done.”

“Misread my email and my other review was for the standard oly bearing bar. Needless to say these collars are good and sturdy. When locked they have a tight fit which gives me no fear of plates sliding off.”

“Very pleased to have a standard 28mm bar in my collection. Makes oly lifts so much cleaner with the needle bearings and the ability to hook grip with ease. Haven't tried a better bar at this price point. Definitely recommend to those who practice oly lifts and wish to improve upon them.”

“I ordered the 1st version when they were selling them cheap to move inventory and have been more than pleased with them. They fit snug on my bar and don't even really need collars so making quick changes is effortless. Plan on buying a full set of change plates next so I can hit PRs more frequently.”

“I compared these handles to a lot of other manufacturers' handles before ordering them. The best feature is that they use normal Olympic size collars. This eliminates the need to buy pairs of axle collars to hold the weights on. This also saves a bunch of money! Rogue or OSO axle collars run about $40-50 per pair! The knurling is fairly aggressive, but it's useful for those workouts when your hands are covered in sweat. I've done multiple long (400m) farmer carries in the heat and humidity and I have not torn up my hands yet. The handles can also be used for some axle type workouts like deadlifts and OH lunges (just don't hit yourself in the face with the handle!).”

“Just got these yesterday and spent the evening having a blast with them. Fit and finish: Better than any pair of handles I've seen (rogue included, their handles went ratty really quick). Very thick and heavy duty powder coat, these suckers will last me a long time. Best Feature: REGULAR CLIPS! In a pinch you can use traditional spring clips and they'll hold on ok, but a pair of OSO's or Lock Jaw's and the plates are locked on solid. Least Favorite Feature: Knurling. It's above every bar I've used except for weightlifting bars (DHS, Werksan and Eleiko are the three I have experience with). On top of the heavy knurling there are two "spikes" that I have to figure out a way to knock down. I worked around them by making sure I used the bar in a specific hand, but I need to address it. I really wish it was more mild like an Ohio bar or Bomba. Summary: This is an awesome pair of handles that will survive anything you throw at them and would work great in an affiliate (take some sandpaper to that knurling though). No regrets about this purchase and will definitely get these again if I need another pair down the road.”

“Very high quality barbells! We are an olympic lifting and strength & conditioning facility and love the bars and bumper plates. The Farmer Carry handles are wonderful and we really like that the handles have knurling which makes the grip a breeze and regular metal collar fit on the FC bars unlike the Rogue handles.”
