Very middle of the road curl bar. The knurling ends a bit soon so I feel like I grab the unknurled parts where it feels the most comfortable. The coating is a bit slick with sweaty hands.

Solid plates, I have a mixed set of Titan , Ivanko and Rogue and they are pretty similar. Accurate and thin. Better value new as they have free shipping and are often on sale.

I use these and I don't compete in powerlifting. I do have an extensive Ivanko collection so these fit the vibe.

This is my dedicated bench press bar. It’s like they said what’s the perfect bar for an obese mediocre powerlifter, and nailed it.

Og bar is built to last. I’ve got one that’s over 10 years old. Great patina and still handles big weight.

I have over 2k of Ivanko M Series. It's a vibe. Are they the most accurate, eh. Are they they cheapest, nope. Why do I love them? Hands down the best noise clanging together of any weight on the market. The thud of getting 45s on the bar is unmatched. These are the go to plates of El Pinche Becerra's Gym.

This is a funky bar that feels good to use as the grip is way fatter than a typical curl bar. The bar is smooth yet the paint has enough grip to not feel slippery. This is a nice piece to mix into my workouts and the bends feel good.
