Got this used but in good shape. Scratched the itch of having a great bar with aggressive knurling from a highly reputable company.

Its a great bar. A fantastic value for a stainless steel bar and its great that this is whats used at most of my USAPL Competitions. The knurling is very aggressive, sometimes a bit much especially when doing high rep deadlifts, but great value. While one of them broke during a USAPL regionals comp I haven't had any issues with quality so I won't knock it until I have an issue with something.

Its an underrated option for stainless steel IPF spec bars. Like Brandon mentioned one did snap in a warmup room at a high level meet sooooo not a great look but I havent had any issues with mine. Sharp Knurl and very stiff bar. Does the job if you are looking for a IPF bar and already have the rogue 20 kg.

This is the bar you'll find at most major USAPL competitions (as of Jan 2026). It has aggressive knurl and has some nice tolerances on it. TSS makes made in USA racks and other equipment, but this is one of the few items that they import from overseas. The benefit of doing so is that this keeps cost down, with Stainless coming in at $349 at the time of review. I did knock it down one for build quality as one recently broke at a competition, but it's the first I've seen anyone have an issue.
