That is not a photograph of this bar. Product photography on this page is illustrative. We are licensing real images of each bar and will swap them in per product as they arrive — until then the pictures show a generic unbranded bar of that type, not the product named beside them.
Published specification
Every figure below is Rogue Fitness’s or Rogue’s own published specification for this bar, quoted rather than measured. Where a figure is not published it is not listed — there are no estimates in this table.
Who this bar is for
A serious weightlifting bar well short of Eleiko money. The centre knurl helps on heavy cleans and back squats and irritates some lifters on front squats — worth knowing which camp you are in.
What this page is not
It is not a review. Nobody at OlympicBars.co.uk has trained on this bar, so there is no score, no star rating and no verdict here, and there never will be unless that changes and we say so plainly. What this page gives you is Rogue’s own numbers, laid out the same way as every other bar on the site so you can compare them, and a link to the shop so you can check the current price yourself.
Other olympic weightlifting bars
A 28mm shaft on needle bearings, so the sleeves spin fast enough to let the bar turn in your hands through a snatch or a clean. Marked to IWF grip spacing.
Every figure is the manufacturer’s or retailer’s own published specification. An em dash (—) means they do not publish that figure — it is never a number we have guessed. “Tensile” is tensile strength in thousands of PSI. “Rotation” is bushings, needle bearings, or both in the same sleeve. No prices are listed here, deliberately: check the current price with the shop.
