Very nice quality bar, only been using it for a month. Price is fair. I dont feel ripped off expecially due to the warranty i recieved when i purchased the bar. Handles my crossfit workouts decently. Will buy again from this company, maybe a different bar or item next time. Thanks to custumers service people there too, very proffesional and courteous.

I recently purchased the Standard bar 28.5mm and am very impressed with the quality of it. The knurling is finished all the way to the sleeve which is nice. The sleeves spin very freely too.

I researched a number of bars before buying this one and the deciding factors for me, over the other bars at this price point, were finish and bushings. I dont need a needle bearing bar so those were not on the table for this purchase. I wanted a hard chrome finish with no black zinc and great bushings. I got that The bar arrived well packed. really well packed-it was tough getting into the package. The feel of the bar is excellent. the knurling is perfect for my all around use-not too much; not too little. I love the bar and I would recommend it to anyone looking for an all-around bar. The bar makes me want to lift more and that is a good quality to have.

This is second Vulcan standard olympic bushing barbell I purchased for my garage gym. The customer service is great and delivery was fast. I recommend this barbell.

The name "Standard" fits this barbell. This is how most barbells should be. Sturdy, tough, and reliable are a few more words to describe it. I have waited before giving this review to put it through most of my workouts to see how it really performs. Just picking it up you can tell its sturdy and can handle some weight thrown on it. It is spinning better every workout as it gets more broken in. I didn't know how I would like no center knurling since I do heavy back squats but honestly, I haven't even really noticed. Speaking of knurling, again, I would call this standard knurling. Very grippy and not sharp. I personally like more aggressive knurling but just a matter of opinion. If you are looking for a high quality multi purpose bar without breaking the bank, just go ahead and go for this one. You won't be sorry!

Have only had the barbell for about a week now but it is performing as well as advertised. The bushings are very nice and make fore smooth lifts.
