Our Solid Strength Intro barbells have a large steel screw-in cap which goes into the sleeve (see picture). This will not break which is what often happens with the ‘end bolt’ on similar entry level bars. Since 2010, we've sold 100's of these barbells to commercial gyms, CrossFit affiliates, high schools, garage gyms as entry level bars for lighter work. While these are not the ideal barbell for Olympic lifting, only experienced lifters will feel the difference.
If you're doing Olympic lifts with bumpers around 100kg or less, these bars will survive being dropped. For slow, compound lifts like squats or deadlifts they're good to 220kg. If you're planning to lift above 220kg, we suggest you upgrade to our 15kg/20kg Hybrid, 20kg Powerlifting, or 15kg/20kg Needle-bearing barbell.

Best value for money barbell you can buy in NZ, had it for about a month, knurling is decent, bearings are smooth. Actually blown away with the quality for the price. Could easily handle up to 200-250kg.

OLYMPIC BARBELL
Awesome buy! love my new barbell! very well packed and delivered. The barbell has awesome grip and barbell is very even not uneven in terms of weight. Dropped a couple of times with bumper plates and takes the drop well.

Fantastic Value
Fantastic quality for the price, especially when compared to $300+ barbells that big chains sell. Awesome second bar for my home gym for accessory movements and for when training with my partner. Branded end caps really add to the feel of quality. Great medium knurl, not aggressive on the throat for cleans but plenty enough to grip.
