“The build quality is top notch; knurling is medium/mild. I haven't used enough weight yet to test the whip or any of that; all I know is that the bar spin is good and there is no play in the bushings. I'd recommend!”

“The only negative is the knurling on the handles. I had to sand it down. It was a little aggressive.”

“The 25kg bumpers are fantastic. Very solid, beautiful, and good width. They have much less bounce than my previous crumb bumper plates, which is really nice; they don't fly all over the platform when dropped. I would definitely buy more again when I need another set!”

“I bought them 'on sale', but still found them to be pricey. If the price were lower, I would have bought more. However, I am glad that I bought them, will be sure to get plenty of use out of them and would recommend them to others. The main thing is that these are quality made and WILL NOT harm my brand new beautiful stainless steel bars. I would also like to see some 1.25 lb. all rubber plates available.”

“I'm 6'5". So from the get go, I'm at a disadvantage when it comes to gymnastics. Problem is, I love the challenge of gymnastics movements. But when it comes to something like parallettes, I'm usually left out from the get go due to size. Most brands are just a little too close to the ground. The Vulcan parallettes are higher, while still being compact. And the price is extra competitive. I figured there must be some kind of catch -- maybe that they'd be tough to put together or not particularly sturdy. Nope; these were easy to put together and have held up amazingly despite this 240 lb fella swinging around on them regularly. Definitely one of the favorite products I've bought from Vulcan.”

“Very pleased with these bumper plates. Very little bounce compared to other bumper plates I have and very little noise when dropped. I would recommend these to any one who is looking for quality bumper plates!”

“Although they had a mistake showing availability of a product that was sold out at the time they followed through with great communication. I initially thought I would not get the same deal as the shipping date was nearly a month later but they kept in contact and honored the original deal. This is nothing extravagant or out of the ordinary but these days it's rare to get straight answers from a customer support rep. Or maybe I've just been dealing with my cable provider over the last couple of weeks. I would absolutely order a product from Vulcan again.”

“V-lock rubber change plates are awesome. I purchased the 1kg and 2.5kg. They fit snug on the collar and look great too. Solid purchase.”

“I have used several brands of bumper plates at various gyms and among basic training bumpers, these are among the best I've used. I ordered them right before the holidays and they were still processed, shipped, and arrived within a week. I am pretty sure that if I ever need to buy more plates for my garage gym I am likely to buy from Vulcan.”

“I've had the bumpers for almost a couple months, these came will a strong smell but that was expected as its rubber. They seem really well made and feel like the right weight, I haven't actually weighed them or anything, the best part was the free shipping. No hassles and no reason to complain. There is a small thing make sure you take off the stickers they put in the hole in the middle or it will start to leave marks on your barbell. Otherwise I am completely satisfied with the product and would definitely buy from Vulcan again especially if they keep with the competitive prices they are currently at!”

“After doing lots of research, I settled on the Vulcan standard bearing bar. It has fantastic knurling, spin and whip. It performs just as good as any of the iwf European bars, for a fraction of the cost. I recommend this bar to anyone looking for a good Olympic bar at a reasonable price.”

“I just wanted a colored set of bumpers, and these were the best prices from an American company I could find. Can't imagine anything else being better. I would definitely order them again. They look good, and the quality is top notch. I only got the 90kg set, but plan on getting a pair of 25kg plates to have the whole set. If you're looking for plates, and your thinking about these, stop thinking and just get them. And no, I don't work for Vulcan. I'm just a normal guy who lifts in my garage.”

“the bumper plates continue to give off a strong toxic smell almost a month after I purchased these. I am not sure that this smell is going away.”
