**This bar is sold at a reduced price because it has a slight imperfection in the chrome plating, over time the bar could crumble to make way for new chrome, the defect is purely aesthetic and does not diminish in any way the performance of the bar . All sales are final.

The Gorila Bar Olympic barbell is a result of many years of testing and research. It combines a medium crisp knurl pattern with just the right amount of grip with precision machined bar sleeves and shaft made from high-quality alloy steel and tested for a consistent 190,000 PSI tensile strength. This attention to detail also allows for a great whip and a long-lasting weightlifting barbell.

The idea behind this beauty was to get a solid, cost-effective barbell ready for the unknown. We've carefully selected the materials and tested them against the day-to-day abuse of group classes and heavy training and it's proven to last. We understand Chinese products don't have the best reputation but when it comes to weightlifting equipment machinery and knowledge, nobody's half as qualified as our Chinese suppliers.

Sleeves rotate around high strength needle bearings for smooth rotation and everything is securely closed together with a double layer of half-moon washers and o-ring clips for a solid product that's easy to disassemble and clean.
