sorted byCons are the finish is poor for the grip area , of the two, 1 i got is more rough to hold and there are no marks for ends, centers on these so I made some using some electrical tape. I don't think you will fine better for £35. (edited)
6ft bar so it's not going to fit most power racks, but fine for squat stands, weight benches, Olympic weightlifting / lifting from floor etc.
Plenty of limitations if you're "the more seasoned weightlifter" they claim it's aimed at, but for many it will be fine.
Have a gym in a narrow room only 7.5ft wide by 20ft so the 7ft barbell has only one option, parallel to the room length, but this would be perfect to use perpendicular to the room and since I'm currently in rehab for surgery and much lighter so all in all perfect for my purposes.
Only bench and potentially deadlifts, but ideally a 7ft bar would be better.
Presumably, it's a solid bar and at only 6ft there's not much leverage to bend it at 135KG.
Just noticed it is light for a 6ft bar. (edited)
Single armed farmers carry in alternating fashion.
The thing looks great for the price.
